Seems it's off to a slow start, which is too bad. The video was really funny. They have some nice concept art to show and that old tech demo. Also mod tools already planned, not a retarded stretch goal. Hope this doesn't fail.

 

[Jarpie]

I somehow doubt they will get 650k but hopefully it kicks off.

 

[Gord]

Looks pretty cool indeed. First game went completely below my radar, strangely.

 

[SuicideBunny]

needs paypal option so i can give them my muniez

 

[Trash]

Pledged. Loved the first and the only game to even come close to the league Homeworld was in. Do hope they'll make that goal.

 

[Keshik]

Hope it picks up, I'll be in for this forget how I happened on the first game (should replay it now that the last mission won't murder my PC) but it was fun.

 

[Toffeli]

Unreal engine though?

 

[evdk]

So this is the reason Jupiter Incident was on sale on GOG.

 

[felipepepe]

650k is a ton of money, I hope they make it, but they'll need some massive media coverage...

My first thought was, you gotta be fucking kidding me, this can't be the sequel to The Jupiter Incident.

And it is. And I'm like

Pledged $20, and I haven't even seen the pitch video yet. May up that amount to $100 if they confirm it's DRM-free ($250 is too rich for my blood )

Same here if not for a passing mention in a Codex thread a while back.

Game's evidently really obscure, and that's reflected in the pledges so far.

 

[fizzelopeguss]

I'll fuck my own face if they reach that much moolah.

 

[GreyViper]

I would like them to succeed, but 650k is a lot of money. If they would combine with the old Imperium Galactica style campagin that might help.

 

[J_C]

Salute to the hungarian bros! Please make this happen!

 

[Angthoron]

Decided to pledge. If they succeed, then I will hopefully have a decent game for 20 kwabux, if they don't, I lose nothing.

 

[Emily]

$44,009
pledged of $650,000 goal


i mean i dunno it could work out hopefully. They just need to get the word out more

 

[Raghar]

At what games they worked between Nexus and now?

 

[Statik]

I'm broke right now, but I'm probably going to pledge when I get my hands on some more money. The Jupiter Incident isn't the most well-known game ever, though, so I hope they manage to hit their goal. A good space game is always welcome.

 

[DwarvenFood]

Never realized the original was obscure, I thought most space game fans have played it, being one of the better games in the genre.

 

[Raghar]

Well they are these people behind Cruise Line Tycoon.

How deeply they fallen after IG2.

 

[CreamyBlood]

I'm thinking of throwing a bit into the pot. I really liked Nexus.

"Calory counters and other disgusting stuff."

That's an excellent renommée for building a new space strategy. It's kinda like when you are working in at new stand, or in tobacco shop last half year. What happened to: My previous job? I worked at guidance for torpedoes for USN, rest of my work is classified. (Well USN has regular and reliable sallaries and stuff like that is nice to cover loses from games. Also these things are kinda related when a game developer actually does R&D.)

TBH I'm not even sure how many of the devs that made the original Nexus are working at that new company. Neither of the two in the vid sounds Hungarian.

 

[Raapys]

We can still call upon the original game’s Producer, Lead Designer, and many of the senior artists, programmers and designers, in our mission to deliver you the truly authentic sequel to Nexus.

But yeah, doesn't really look like they'll pull it off. Which is sad. Needs media coverage asap.

nice interview that explains what happened and why they need the money
