It's getting really difficult keeping up with all the recent Kickstarter activity within the gaming industry as of late, but CONSORTIUM really stuck out to me.
It's a FPS RPG built on the Source engine that takes place within an interactive micro-environment called the Consortium C-3800-D ZENLIL, which is an aircraft.
Overview - Developed by Interdimensional Games (iDGi)
CONSORTIUM is a role-playing game in which you are able to role-play as yourself.
You are you (as in you can speak as yourself, a man/woman from "our world") and you're being given the opportunity to physically control a man from a parallel world.
This man is first day Consortium field agent Bishop Six, operative for a powerful peacekeeping force in a not-quite-utopia future of 2042.
You have total control over the Bishop's inventory, medical state, and the state of all his weapons, armor and equipment.
You can also customize his Battle Utility Suit with hard-point devices such as personal deflector shields and shock absorbers.
You must also manage and balance the Bishop's Utility Energy, with which he can power everything from medical nanites to energy weapons...
as well as Storage Energy, which represents stored items such as armor, weapons and ammunition.
Kickstarter Goal: $50,000
Current backers: 2455
Pledge amount as of 4/10: $52,860 - FULLY FUNDED
Days left: 4
