Item combinations were at the core of JA series gameplay. Finding a scrapheap in JA2 meant finding treasure. The community later expanded this into "serious" weapon attachment systems. Which if any type of item combos will your engine support?

We definitely want to include trash items and finding these randomly around the map.
This could unlock an entire crafting system, but this is not part of the core game for us in the minimum budget. For us we want to get a JA2 style engine up running with a new story - and make the story as big as possible inside the budget + enable modding for expansion.

-1 FC. JA-fuckin-1 had basic item combos in it. That was decades ago. And you still can't put something that simple into a game?

Sir-tech basically blew our minds 12 years ago by simply releasing one sector demo of JA2. The demo was so awesome that it got its own mods before even the full game was released. Will JA:F have a demo sector to show off (and possibly serve as a drive for a second KS campaign)?

There was no direct answer but the quote below explains why:

We could also have waited until we had a half done game and a demo to show. But that would mean that the community would have very very little to say and change, and it would have been more of a pre-order kickstarter than a true community effort

-1. What? WHAT? W-H-A-T? You would ever go to a producer and tell him THAT? "Dear Sir, we didn't bring you a demo because we wanted to make exactly the game your desire!". Geeez...

Do you feel you underestimated the amount of time and effort that needs to be put into a kickstarter campaign?

Not really. We knew there was a lot of work. We have through the last months been working on preparations and have had lots of advice given by very well known Kickstarter knowledgeable people that we are friends with. So we knew what was coming

-1. Your friends either had no idea what your are trying to fund or they are not good friends. If I was your friend I would have advised you to never go NEAR Kickstarter until you had like 1 TB of pictures, movies, interviews and texts to show.

are there going to be drugs in the game? what about mature themes in general?

Quote:

NO DRUGS? What do you mean. We got a drug cartel as one of the factions
And one of our pledges is being made as your own pimp in your own brothel........

-1. For a moment I was going "hey cool, we are gonna be able to run our own brothel". Then I read this again. You know what pledge is that? This:
