Like I said when it launched, I hate to slam it, because it's not like we have a lot of space fighter game options, but 150K for a combined pc/vita delivery sounds questionable.

It's even less when you consider KS gets a cut of that.
Which is why between that and all the mentioning of DLC, it seems to me that the game you'll get for helping fund will be pretty small, and then they hope to roll out content/make money from DLC.

To me, the term kickstarter implies these are just start-up funds. While in many instances the money donated to a project will more than cover the entire development, a kickstarter project works just as well if reaching it's target means it has enough to get off the ground and catch the eye of a publisher who may be willing to fund it the rest of the way. Of course, the obvious downside is that this opens the door to publisher meddling, which is in large part what kickstarters are meant to circumvent in the first place. Still, not all publishers are like EA, so it wouldn't necessarily be the end of a good thing.
