    In short this game is a city management game, clearly inspired by Dwarf Fortress, but this game takes place in above ground settings. It also has 3d voxel-based graphics, you can create custom buildings and there will be multiplayer.

    Estimated release is September 2014.
    Closed beta begins in December 2013.

    Personally I am interested in this game.

    Yeah, I saw that yesterday. Looks cool, the Cthluhu boss in the video definately piqued my interest.

    Not the most extremely succesful one. Castle Story and Starbound were more succesful, but maybe not in terms of being over their goals.

    I backed it for 30$, for that price you got 1 beta (when ready) and 2 full versions at release.
    Hope it will be as good as it seems, but until then - brace yourselves, Starbound is coming.

    That's precisely what I meant, they went 600% over their initial goal. I'd call that successful.

    despite modding for it I never really liked Dwarf Fortress due to its shitty interface

    this looks both attractive and promising, mod support and multiplayer make it even better

    saw this a week ago, if they get 1,000,000 i heard they would make servers for multiple people to play and build together, or war and raid eachother

    Game looks nice, but waiting until 2014 Sept. to get game is kinda painful. Also, paying more to get into beta? :huh?:

    paying to get into beta is not unusual for many games

    For 30$ you don't just get access to the beta, you also get a second copy at release.
