Sounds like him! That looks great, I want to play Cayne, then I'll get Stasis, then this hopefully. Looks like it deserves to be funded.

Graphics looks great.

Is this a SA based company too?

Sweet!

SA on a roll!

It would be incredible if SA based companies can make some proper games to the likes of EA and Ubisoft then we can pay less!

Indie games are generally cheaper on steam already, there is no need for it to be even cheaper.

Hence, proper.

Imagine a call of duty caliber game or need for speed was developed here

Great to see lots of development coming out of SA of late.

Stumbled across this completely by accident while browsing through gamedev stuff yesterday. Was really impressed by the visual aesthetic, art style and character design they had going on, but was put off by the October 2019 date and an inherent distrust in crowdfunding games.

Then, I just happened to notice at the bottom of the page that they're fellow Capetonians, and I just had to make an exception this once, so I put in a pledge (they're at $101'207 of $120'000 now). It's a really awesome feeling to see something so impressive being done by fellow locals.

Edit: And 100% funded!
