Me want!

LOL...very odd trailer, don't know what to think?

Wow! Someone did a lot of drugs while working on that one! Which won't stop me from buying it if it's any good!

It's a Steampunk city-builder with some Lovecraftian elements tossed in.  Created by the guys who did the roguelike Dungeons of Dredmor.  I played the latter over 200 hours and would still happily start it up again.  Hopefully they do as well in the city builder genre. 

Insta-buy.

Depressed colonists who turn to drink to deal with the dangers of their everyday lives? Cultists summoning Lovecraftian monstrosities from beyond the stars? A lot of people on fire?

Yes, it DOES sound like a weekend BBQ at Star's house, doesn't it???

Fire, depression, alcohol abuse and Cthulhu... Now here I was sure that everyone would think of me!

Great looking game!

It was missing porn and medieval France references so we sill didn't attribute it to you :P

Throw some porn into the mix and that has Game of the Year potential.

This sounds like a great game, sort of like a Monty Python version of Crusader Kings 2.   :D  I hope they can pull it off.  I was reading one of the previews where the devs were throwing a lot of great ideas around but when questioned on implementation, they kept saying stuff like "we still are working on getting it in the game in a fun way" etc. etc.  It is not easy to implement such free-form stuff. 

Still, I have my fingers crossed.  I've been hoping for a more accessible Dwarf Fortress for years.   :)

Just the thought of that made me chuckle  :)

That would make for a good CK2 mod!  Could you imagine a killer rabbit random event?  ;D
