Very cool, a crowd-sourced publishing deal. I loved the first game, so for me a pledge was a no-brainer. I wouldn't hold my breath for any real "revenue share" though, those things tend to get filtered out in the book-keeping ("oh, we just hired someone for 1 year forward, so that ate all the revenue").

I played NEXUS: the Jupiter Incident forever.  Absolutely loved that game.  I will also gladly pick this up when it comes out!  

Good that something is being done with the game. Watching that video and than learning that the game had been cancelled made me almost as sad as watching this video...

Hmm, I wasn't too impressed with the 1st game. Missions were all predefined. You go into them, lose or win if you are lucky and then reload the game to where you pick your ships for the mission and then try to win with different combination. Rinse and repeat until you find a combination that wins for that mission. Stupid way to design a game.

I loved the original game. I look forward to the sequel.

I played the original game which I quit after I figured out it was a glorified version of rock/paper/scissors. Each mission you would start with whatever, see what kind of enemies await you and then load save before the mission and customize your fleet so it hardcounters what the enemy throws at you. And if you didn't do that (like me) you could not finish missions. I hate games like that.
