This Kickstarter looks to raise $25,000 for Predestination, a sci-fi themed turn-based space 4X strategy game. Here's word on why the goal for this is so modest: "$25,000 isn't a lot of money to develop a game on, but our team is small and has very low costs. There are also government finance schemes here in Northern Ireland that we can take advantage of, but most of them require us to have already secured finance from somewhere else like an investor or Kickstarter." Here's word on their plans for the game:

Predestination is a turn-based space 4X game that significantly modernises and improves on the gameplay of classic games like Master of Orion II, Civilization and the Galactic Civilizations series. It blends turn-based galaxy management and turn-based tactical combat with modern 3D graphics, player-generated content, and innovative new game mechanics that 4X fans have been waiting years to get their hands on: A 3D galaxy map that works, real planetary exploration, streamlined micromanagement, realistic spying and planetary bombardment mechanics, and many other revolutionary features. It's all in Predestination, whether your focus is on exploring the galaxy, expanding your galactic empire, exploiting the resources around you or exterminating all races that cross your path.
