This looks rather neat, almost like a sci-fi version of Dwarf Fortress.

This looks really cool and they've blown past their funding goal. I'm curious about any stretch goals they may have. They have 5 times the amount of funding they originally asked for, yet I didn't see any mention of stretch goals.
I've always been curious about dwarf fortress, but the graphics have kind of turned me off.
I don't know if they plan on offering any stretch goals.
They certainly are under no requirement to do so.
Someone previewed the pre-alpha build. Please note that this IS stated to be pre-alpha, so it's subject to change, but it still looks very promising.

Interesting. Got the name and "ringworld" cross-wired in my head when I read the title so I was expecting something very different than what I actually got. That said, might be worth checking into.
I think this one is a solid contender in the "buy it later if its not too expensive" category.

Like watching other people play video games (badly) while blathering about nothing in particular? Check out my Youtube channel: joemamaUSA!

So I pulled the trigger on this one, if only because I can see this being the "next big youtube let's play thing" and since its a game I want to play anyway putting it up on my channel in pre-alpha might give me a view boost.
Yep, I'm a mercenary man.
