It will be turn-based and party-based, with a top-down perspective and 2D graphics. Fargo has managed to attract many of the original developers, such as Alan Pavlish and Mike Stackpole, as well as Jason Anderson, who was a designer for Fallout, and Mark Morgan, who did the music for Planescape: Torment and both of the original Fallout games. Fargo's goal has been set at $900,000. Anything above that will be used for additional game content. At $1.5 million he will offer an OS X version. An interview with Fargo by Rock, Paper, Shotgun provides some additional insight into what he and his group are planning, as does a video interview with Matt Barton." http://a.fsdn.com/sd/twitter_icon_large.png (http://twitter.com/home?status=Interplay+Ex-CEO+Brian+Fargo+Kickstarts+Wasteland+II%3A+http%3A %2F%2Fbit.ly%2FzQddXu) http://a.fsdn.com/sd/facebook_icon_large.png (http://www.facebook.com/sharer.php?u=http%3A%2F%2Fgames.slashdot.org%2Fsto ry%2F12%2F03%2F13%2F2119244%2Finterplay-ex-ceo-brian-fargo-kickstarts-wasteland-ii%3Futm_source%3Dslashdot%26utm_medium%3Dfacebook ) http://www.gstatic.com/images/icons/gplus-16.png (http://plus.google.com/share?url=http://games.slashdot.org/story/12/03/13/2119244/interplay-ex-ceo-brian-fargo-kickstarts-wasteland-ii?utm_source=slashdot&utm_medium=googleplus)
