Neat! I'd like to see what they do with procedurally generated worlds and quests. But $52K seems like very little.
@Thrasher - Gratitude for your comments and feedback. AT is an Indie game. Regarding funds, look at how much Minecraft or Terraria cost to produce - we have most of what they had at launch now(on our own budget) and we are still 9 months out (to spend our new budget on polish, refinement, extending systems and filling out the rest of the worlds). We are also using the same strategy, make a big little game to release at Beta (where our funding takes us) - then as we make sales on Steam and other places we push out FREE updates every other month that continues to fill the world out. We feel this is the nature of Sandbox type of games. The model doesn't work for some, others are happy to participate in that way. For those who just want to play the finished polished product and not be a part of the making and history of the video game growing, they will want to wait until it becomes "gold" status. Gratitude again guys for the dialogue and feedback, we really are scouring the net and trying to assimilate as much data as possible right now.
