Xenonauts

Has anyone seen this?

I just found it and I was amazed at the quality of the screenshots.

"The game is heavily inspired by the classic X-Com / UFO: Enemy Unknown, released in the mid-90s by the now-defunct Mythos / Microprose. It is not a straight remake; though the core mechanics remain similar much has changed or been updated – so much so, in fact, that we prefer the term ‘reimagining’ to remake’."

I tried demo and I liked what I seen it definitely have that Xcom feel.But in this state it doesn't have much technologies and AI isn't smart but I think it shows well how game will be once it's finished.I am not sure of firaxis remake since it's also developed for consoles and mass market but if they don't get it right based on demo I am pretty sure goldhawk will

Xenonauts have finished funding with around 300% of initial goal good new for all of us doubting Firaxis will do proper sequel

Xenonauts is now close to a beta; alpha is already very playable and a lot of fun.

Played a quick battle for this the other night, looking very nice.
