UPDATE: This game was successfully funded on Kickstarter back in May of 2015. It's now coming out for the Switch on January 10, 2019. It will have 1-4 local multiplayer and online as well. Looks very promising, especially if you enjoyed the Power Stone games on the Dreamcast.

Thanks for sharing, this is super cool!

54 hours to go and it still needs close to $8000 to reach funding. Fingers crossed!

No worries :). I just think that this game deserves more recognition. Less than 7K to go as of now :). Still a chance to succeed.

Now at 25 hours and only another $6,000. I would contribute if I had money, but unfortunately, gas is expensive and I'm getting a car in the next month.

I'm much more comfortable with crowdfunding campaigns that have at least a demo to show. I figured Combat Core would meet its goal, so it will be nice to see where it goes from here.

Yep, got my alpha build recently! I'll record some footage later in the week.
Which controller are you using to play? I'm gonna have to invest in a controller soon :p. I heard the 360's is pretty good. Any recommendations?

Well, if it's powerstone-esqe then the Dreamcast would be the best controller, but I don't think that has USB connectors lol. I'd probably say 360 just because the wired ones aren't that expensive and it's a good controller.

Yeah I'll probably grab the 360 controller. Still wished that this game had enough funding for a console port, particularly for Wii U :/ ..that would of been amazing.

I'm wondering what they'll do with the second analog stick... Powerstone never had the opportunity to use it.

I don't have a Switch so I know I won't be getting it.

But...it's funny, I was thinking about making a Power Stone-style game in Dreams. I loved those Power Stone games.
