Red Katana sent out a new press release with news their new kickstarter game Fallen: A2P Protocol was successfully funded. Here is the news from the press release.

September 6th 2014, Buenos Aires, Argentina, Good news for all the fans of games such as X-COM, Fallout and Shadowrun as the game Fallen A2P Protocol paying homage to those titles, has just been Greenlit on Steam and is only missing 900 USD out of 75000 USD goal, with 11 more hours to go!
You can support the game here: Fallen A2P Protocol Kickstarter Campaign

Fallen A2P Protocol takes place in the near future, in a drastically altered dystopian world. In 2125 mega corporation GENKORP unveiled A2P, a new power source to fuel humanity’s thirst for expansion and satisfy the needs of an ever-growing global population. GENKORP quickly rose in influence and fashioned itself the ultimate military-industrial complex, controlling access not only to the primary source of global energy but also crafting a military force that easily dwarfed all others.

Although touted as perfectly safe and environmentally friendly, there were those that foresaw the danger of A2P and an unchecked corporation. Known as ARKANE, and quickly branded as ‘terrorists’, this opposition group organized around a common principle: stopping the unchecked growth of GENKORP and halting A2P.

Too little was done too late, however, as A2P’s dark side quickly manifested: Earth’s weather was altered forever, with ‘natural’ disasters ravaging the planet, reshaping it and turning much of the world into a what is now simply known as ‘The Dust’, with some reinforced but devastated cities and military strongholds scattered throughout.

Fierce fighting persists endlessly between GENKORP and ARKANE, adding to the wholesale destruction. Meanwhile, those that have not aligned with either faction are viewed as bandits and outlaws. Independently and in small groups they fight for their day-to-day survival, etching out a difficult existence in ‘The Dust’.

GAME KEY FEATURES:

• Would-be survivors must master strategic planning and employ a wide range of turn-based tactical combat factors, including destructible environments and limited ammunition

• A vast and inhospitable world, complete with hostile weather and vision impairing day-night cycles, requires careful exploration to recruit allies and gather scarce resources

• Character progression and customization, as well as armor and weapon upgrades, showcase player-focused RPG elements and offer a high replay value

• A dark, dystopian lore provides a rich backstory to create a world in which the player’s actions have lasting impact, with the fate of humanity determined by their personal choices and combat capabilities

The developer is currently raising funds on Kickstarter for the game further development with the goal being set at $75,000, 900 USD missing out of the total goal and only 11 more hours to go!

$75,584 / 75,000

That was a really close one. Was also quite sceptical myself and didn't put more money into it than the minimum. But I am quite happy that they made it.
Just hope they weren't too optimistic with the goal of 75k and it's really enough to make the game.
