This is a game I have been following for a while and they are launching the KS on October 14th at 12pm EST, so I figured I would share it here!
Deep Madness is a cooperative board game, depicting a sci-fi horror world inspired by Lovecraft and Alien series
Right up my alley!
Also has a bit of a The Thing, Event Horizon and Sphere vibe in my opinion.
Miniature manufacturing is "likely" (according to their FB posts) going to be Ludo Fact (yay!)
There will be timed EB's available in the first 24 hours.
$100 for core game and stretch goals, $90 EB.
There are lots of pics to be found on their Facebook page ( https://m.facebook.com/deepmadnessgame/) and Board Game Geek, but here's a few to give you the idea:

The sculpts are great. I'll need confirmation of who's making the minis and with what material - i.e. more evidence of the final published quality - to consider backing it. I'd also like to know who's doing the proofreading, as the gamemakers appear to speak English as a second language, and I'm not fond of reading rules that are hard to follow due to grammar issues.
As for the vision informing the art and minis, bravo. Just what I've been hoping for. They'd have me in a second if I knew I could count on the final product looking as good as the resins they're displaying.

The concept and sculptures are great (obvious: there are Gael Goumon and other top artists involved!)
I would buy if metal... So, unfortunately, I won't... Unless they make some pewter limited edition.

I don't understand quite how they'll manage that, but I did it and already got two people telling me they'll be backing it when it launches, so it is a pretty smart idea from them!

Just remember you more than likely won't have to pay for this until November, so all you whining about having no money currently, you're in the clear!
At least that's what I'm telling myself...

Good timing for the start date. Right between the other projects I'm watching and before it gets too crazy with all the new games that usually come out in Nov.

Nice! Thanks for the info Nostro, this thread is literally the first I've heard of this and from the BGG entry it seems like Dead Space Underwater with HP Lovecraft taking a hand.
And that's great.

Kids today, with their 'phones'...
The board is built with room tiles. And other elements are placed on it, such as submerged marker, spawn marker, devoured effect tokens, and scenario cards.
The game takes place in a deep sea mining facility, so there will be submerged rooms, in which the drowning rules take effect. Investigators cannot stay too long in submerged area, or they will receive a lot of damage, even die instantly. A careful plan is needed.
The double sided tile represents the 2 states of a single room, with the normal side and the "devoured" side. After a room is devoured, a spawn marker is placed on one of its spaces, this room will spawn monsters from now on. For the other space(s) of this room, random effect tokens will be placed, which provide a variety of nasty negative effects that hinder the investigators. As the game progresses, more and more rooms will be devoured, at last, the whole place will turn into hell.
The order in which the room is devoured is random, which is determined by flipping the room deck, together with the random devoured effects, the game board will have plenty of dynamic. The core game comes with 30 room tiles, these are some of them.
More on their Facebook site too!

These tiles are reminding me of Mansions of Madness design, especially the transparent lines.
This isn't a bad thing!

A little too gribbly for me - makes all the monsters look the same.
