Kickstarter: Starlight Inception - free-roaming space combat game à la Wing Commander/Tie Fighter

It's been way too long since I've seen a good, old-fashioned space combat game, and this looked cool! Headed by the same guy that did SW: Galactic Battlegrounds.

It's still in the early stages and not coming out until August 2013 though. :P Threw some money their way anyway.

Starlight Inception is a realistic and relevant 1st person / 3rd person free-roaming space combat experience. It has a unique blend of action with an involving storyline. Features include ship based combat both in space and on planets and moons, interplanetary exploration, and multiplayer dogfighting.

• DRM-free digital download on PC or digital download through the Playstation Store for Sony Playstation Vita

• Dramatic and realistic storyline: Players will experience an enveloping space saga with a deep and involving story that spans the solar system.

• Richly detailed: Rich detail will show from the capital ships, environments, space fighters, transports to explosions.

• Space action: Action in space and over the surface of planets and moons. Fly over a planet’s atmosphere then swoop down over surface vehicles and troops for a visceral experience both at high and low altitudes.

• Camera perspective: Switchable 1st and 3rd person cameras let the player tailor the game experience to their own liking.

• Lots of stuff to do: Blow up stuff with the most advanced fighters known to man, salvage destroyed vessels for cool stuff, defend your ship against incoming marauders, locate and destroy ground targets, blow up more stuff...
