Wildman from Gas Powered

Kickstarter campaign started.

While most of the high profile Kickstarter pages so far have sought to lure us with nostalgia, Gas Powered Games, are doing something different as they're proposing {Wildman} - "an evolutionary RPG" with their recently launched campaign.

Gas Powered Games is asking for $1.1 million and as we write this they have managed $90,000 from 1,900 backers - so while there's some ways to go it's off to a respectable start.

A brief description of {Wildman} was posted as follows:

"{Wildman} delivers a thrilling mix of action-role-playing and real-time strategy that only a developer like Gas Powered Games can deliver.

In brief, this is what {Wildman} is all about:

Going to War: Build your army and fight against opposing champions armies for great rewards in hand-crafted War Zones.

Exploring the World: Go on RPG Adventures in amazing and epic environments; discover secret dungeons; fight battles against rampaging hordes of monsters; find and equip new weapons and armor.

Evolving or Dying: Steal technology from your defeated opponents and use it against them in future battles.

Smashing and Destroying: Advanced physics and destructible environments deliver highly visceral (and bloody) combat."
