Reddit is now hosting an AMA session with the Dead State developers (thanks nin). Word is: "We are Brian Mitsoda (Vampire the Masquerade: Bloodlines) and Oscar Velzi (The Age of Decadence). Brian is the Project Lead on Dead State and Oscar is the Lead Artist. Dead State is a survival RPG similar to Fallout with tactical elements similar to Jagged Alliance or X-Com. The game focuses on leading a group of humans after the collapse of society. Dead State is currently on Kickstarter with 6 days to go."
