BEDLAM. Got a nice ring to it, doesn't? Well, it also looks rather spiffy. Sci-Fi roguelike with tactical combat and a postapocalyptic setting that has you racing across the wasteland in a massive Dozer. Them using the Banner Saga engine and specifically naming FTL, Banner Saga and the venerable X-com as influences really does peek my interest. And I do love that comic style. Check out the BEDLAM kickstarter.

Looks really good, but apparently it lacks exploration and I'm not sure that Banner Saga's open field battles will work with guns. Just look at those combat screens, they beg for some terrain, cover, walls, etc...

It seems like the exploration will be much like FTL's. Zones that you move through towards a final objective. With each zone having a random big encounter you work towards and having multiple locations you move through as well. Combat will depend on the strength, reach and usage for firearms. No idea as of yet on how they plan on implementing it. The whole FTL/roguelike aspect appeals to me, together with setting and art so I pledged.

so a banner saga tfl hybrid? sounds like it could be fun and interesting.

Is GoG really that unknown or difficult to get into?

With their current patching system I forgive any dev for discounting them. They seriously need to fix that blatant issue ASAP.

It looks great. You guys should raise some cash for a custom Dice sigil and maybe some Codexian npcs.
