So i just did a quick search on the forums and no one has posted about this, which is quite surprising. Chris Roberts, creator of the Wing Commander series, is working on an amazing looking new Space Sim. He has what looks like 2 simultaneous crowd funding sources going on at the same time, one at Kickstarter, and one at their official site. The game is called Star Citizen. Here are some links:

Kickstarter:
http://www.kickstarter.com/projects/cig/star-citizen

Official Site:
http://www.robertsspaceindustries.com/

Teaser Trailer:

Full Trailer:

What do you guys think? I just blew the last few dollars i had on the Interplay sale so i can't back up the game right now, but it looks so damn epic! And those graphics are being rendered in real time folks! This is being designed with PC in mind, so it will take full advantage of it. Apparently the trailers are running on a computer with a GTX 670, but i'm not sure.

The search function sometimes lies. ;)
Isn't it recommended to use google to do GOG searches?

How dare you accuse the honorable search function of dishonesty? It would never betray us ... willingly. If it ever look that way, it's because the search algorithm in fact consists of a drooling narcotized chimpanzee pointing at random threads.
Holy shit do i feel stupid. Oh man... Well I didn't do a google search. Maybe GOG should implement a google search into the site like some other sites do? lol.

No worries, I often don't have the greatest luck with the search function either. And regarding your OP, yeah, I think it looks pretty promising. I haven't backed too many Kickstarters, but I have this one.
