Just want to share a Kickstarter project here which I think is quite interesting. A RTS game similar to Total Annihilation and these people have worked on C&C Generals Zero Hour, Sup Com and Total Annihilation.

Kickstarter page:
http://www.kickstarter.com/projects/659943...-generation-rts

Also have Paypal options on their official website:
http://planetaryannihilation.com/



From what I understand, that video is just an animation to show the gameplay concept. The TF2 graphics is not the actual game graphics.

Anyway, I think they have quite some interesting RTS concept, even if don't per-order the kickstarter thing, its worth keeping an eye on this project and see what they come up with. biggrin.gif

I pledged the moment I saw this.

It's a real shame that mass battle-based RTS' never took off and all of them seem to try and outdo Starcraft. I think the closest thing we've had in the last few years that was similar to TA was RUSE.

Anyway, I like the simple geometry graphics that they're using there. Reminds me a lot of the original TA... plus, hearing that they're using classical music for the score and they even have the original TA narrator, really shows the devs are trying to usurp Supreme Commander as the true spiritual sequel to TA.

I have pledged for the game the moment i saw this kickstarter.

For me, i would want to see another large scale RTS, not another Starcraft wannabe.

it's basically what total annihilation should evolve to in this day/age, planetary scale, throwing planets to your opponent's face etc.
from publisher's POV, too risky, may not yield much... and that's where kickstarter comes in smile.gif

I know a guy who pledged 10k to the game.
He says the devs are willing to make giant penis commanders if he paid 40k more

Show us the gameplay first. Being industry vets does not exclude you from potentially delivering a broken game. See John Romero and Daikatana for such a fail.
