It’s early days yet, but yeah, I’d play this.
Developers Flippfly are planning onlaunching a Kickstarterfor the game on April 6th, though there’s also alreadya Steam pagewith more to see.
Flippfly at least have some existing procedural credibilty (which is like regular hand-crafted credibility, only the number of i’s is different each time), given that they made Race The Sun, aspeedy procedural racing game we liked quite a bit seven years ago.
Whisker Squadron is also planning to have a roguelike mission structure, upgrade choices to make between missions, and banter between the different pilots. I hope they all sound likethe SNES Star Foxcharacters, and notthe N64 Star Foxcharacters.
