Action based online RPG Elemental World on kickstarter

Hi everyone just thought id share the game Elemental World Part 1 Rise Of The Guardians which has recently started a kickstarter and is on greenlight.

It is going to be an online action RPG which focuses on letting the players play how they want such as if you want to be a crafter you can sit in your player home/somewhere in game buying raw materials from npc's/players crafting then sending them off to sell in your NPC shop (NPC player shops will hopefully free server up a little from AFK stalls that litter main citys).

It also will offer full customization of all items as well as weapons that level with you so you are not always hunting for better weapons. An example of customizing is if your guns need better hand to hand damage you could add some spikes to the magazine or where the sights go,or change a tanks machine gun for a mortar.

The game wants to have something for everyone to do from just playing on a 15 minute break to hard hordes of monsters for players wanting a challenge.

Also another future plan is creating your own skills combos so instead of having to chain 3 you can press one button and you will do the 3 spells/skills in a combo. An example would be if you was mage laying traps buy using a combo of mines cloaking   or as an assassin where you back stab,back flip,rain arrows then throw a knife etc

At the moment it is in pre alpha stage so only generic RPG things have been made (quests,shops,combat and skills eg fire bolt and summoning) but if it gets the minimum its looking for (£25k) it should be able to polish of the bugs add a few things such as crafting etc as well as get some better models for creating the world the ideal situation would be to raise £100k+ as that means could hire a small in house team full time for close to a year meaning high level of polish,features and hopefully AAA standard and looks.

The demo in the video buggy but there is a released demo where you can try the skills and a few test quests shop system etc where fewer bugs.There is a small limit on the demo currently for the multiplayer of the server can only hold 20 people at once (will be upgraded when funding available) and i think max of 10 per room (If fully funded the network will be upgraded so only one main server/few servers) The offline version (new game in menu) is the same as online version

This is not aiming to be a WoW clone this is more a game that will give players some freedom to play how they like be creative creating weapons,robots,mechs even planets,learn about some of the lore and stories and collecting stuff and taking pictures of monsters etc or just blow off some steam killing hordes of monsters or time traveling to be part of the lore and see some of the history of the game and opening dimensional rifts to see parallel worlds.

When released it can be downloaded on Windows Mac and Linux and they may be a web version to for people who are not on there main computer (such as if at a friends or on holiday)
