I think they should can the $250 tier and put it at a lower value. It's overestimating their reward's worth. I can see people wanting to raise their pledges for a physical copy, but not at $250.

Hmm..
Well, I played the demo - the gameplay seems like it has the potential to be fairly good, but needs some tweaking before it really becomes fun. The combat mission included in the demo seemed a bit too easy (maybe the AI isn't finished yet?) and the primary weapon projectiles were a bit on the slow side - I could fly almost as fast as them using the afterburner. Fighters are tricky to hit, performing evasive manoeuvres once they notice you chasing them - I mostly relied on missiles to kill them due to the slow primary projectiles.
Blasting individual components off ships was neat for a bit (I cut a cargo ship in half with a cannon at one point), but the individual pieces seem a bit too fragile.
In some ways it feels kind of similar to the space combat in The Precursors.
