Procedural generation, fine but anything else?
How about loot chests concealing lil' bots that switch into fighter jets and blaze away before your eyes, that kinda thing.

Good quote from one of the guys from World of Spectrrum website

"I don't understand, what exactly do you want him to present? If you're going to quote the Kickstarter website then surely you read:

"Were using Kickstarter both as a means of test-marketing the concept to verify there is still interest in such a game that extends beyond the individuals who regularly contact me about the game, and raising the funds to do so."

Yup, he could talk more about his ideas, and I think he should, but beyond that there won't be anything until the KS funds are met. "
