(Kickstarter) Dex - Dreadlocks ltd

[Saracen26]

So... There's an Awesome game on Kickstarter called 'Dex'. Some of you may have heard about it. It looks really cool, and appears to be a part of the FTG Fund.

A story-driven action/stealth sidescrolling RPG with a fresh new vision of cyberspace.

Explore the dark alleys of Harbor Prime and a host of diverse locations in both physical reality and the wild reaches of cyberspace. Discover the truth behind an enigmatic AI striving to reach the Singularity, a theoretical “event horizon” in which artificial intelligence will surpass human intelligence and all bets about the future will be off. How will you play your part in the story?

• Rare melding of realism and creative vision: Realistic action, mature storyline, and complex character interactions meld with hand-drawn characters, animations, and locations, arcade-style melee combat, and an original conception of cyberspace.
  
• Multiple solutions to problems: Operate in cyberspace or normal reality. Overcome obstacles using skills, weapons, special equipment…
  
• Meaningful character progression choices: Will you be a silent assassin, a hacker, or a straightforward gunfighter? Improve your character and gear to unlock gameplay-changing upgrades that reinforce and customize your gameplay style.
  
• Unique hacking mechanic: Transfer your consciousness to your avatar, overcome intrusion countermeasures, take action, and then return back to your body in a fraction of a real-time second to see the results – deactivated turrets, overloaded devices, enemies with crippled implants…
  
• Neo-cyberpunk: Story deeply inspired by the cyberpunk novels of William Gibson and other classical cyberpunk authors, flavored with a contemporary concept of augmented reality.
  
• Rich game world and mindful level design: Visit diverse locations in Harbor Prime, a futuristic city complete with luxurious skyscrapers, run-down shantytowns, and seedy red-light districts. Take part in street brawls, steal corporate data, overcome environmental hazards, and, of course, stay alive – no easy task.
  
• Full voice acting: Interactive dialogues using hand-drawn sprite animations, fully voice-acted by professional actors.
  
• Multiplatform development: Game is being developed in the Unity 3D game engine for PC (Windows), Mac, Linux, and OUYA.
  
• DRM-Free: Dex will be distributed DRM-Free, with an option to receive a Steam key (if we succeed on Greenlight).

Color me intrigued!

Well... I don't really care for the theme, I never have liked space/future/bladerunneresque-things - but the gameplay seems very fun!

this looks cool

Wow! That looks fantastic! It reminds me of Flashback, one of my favourite games of all time. I reckon I'd buy Dex in a heartbeat.

[RiotingSpectre]

It does certainly look interesting.

Definitely. My wife's going to be pissed that I funded another kickstarter... :/

Edit: Scratch that. For some reason it's declining my card, which I'm positive is good. I'm assuming it's because it's being charged in £ instead of $? I don't know. I'll try again tomorrow.

*Ah! It doesn't take Amazon payments?! Guess I will back if when I get home to get my CC# Hope I don't forget lol

£849 from being funded on Kickstarter with 21 days still remaining! Will be interesting to see what the stretch goals are now.

Hell Yeah, this is what I am talking about. Looks like Flashback/Out of this World. Making it my kind of game. Let's get this sucker out there already! I wants to play!
