Descent Underground looks promising

I found a new game project to follow. I used to play some Descent back in the day, which is a space game (SPACE!) where you have to kill enemy ships and destroy reactor cores, etc etc. Somehow this slipped passed my not so watchful eye.

Oddly enough it’s being developed by some people who left the Star Citizen project last year, and the person leading this project also worked on Wing Commander 4 among other titles. Apparently they had a successful kickstarter. Already it looks much more promising. They say there will be a Linux release as well. I might have to chip in and check out the Early Access at some point. I really, REALLY needed to see this after watching the drama in certain other Kickstarters and Projects unfold.
