Pangaea666: Even made a thread about this game back when, intending to collect info on it and such, as I was hopeful it could turn into something good. Water under the bridge now.

GR00T: Well I, for one, do understand your trepidation. It's a brand new company with no real track record. I'm choosing to look at the things you're concerned about as just inexperience in this sort of money-raising venture. I backed the game and will keep my pledge in the campaign, though. I backed enough to get the actual game, so we'll see what comes of it. This game was given a shout out by one of the other devs I've backed (can't recall which one offhand, but it was one I have faith in), so I'm comfortable enough to let my pledge ride.
I backed enough to get the game too, although it was 'only' the €16 tier. At the end of the campaign there are too many things that don't add up for me, however, so I decided to pull out. Hopefully the game is released and is a smashing hit so I can buy it then, even if it's for twice the price or whatever.
At this moment in time, though, we aren't buying a game but are sort-of investors or gamblers, and when I don't feel comfortable with what they have shown, the decision was easier to make. I've backed some other small developers and it hasn't always turned out great, but in those cases I didn't doubt their intentions and honesty, while here I'm much less sure. Hopefully just down to inexperience as you say, and I'd love to be proven wrong.
