| Quote voltixdark (  ) Is it because you work alone and don't want the unwavering pressures of getting the game done?
This is an cause also. Even here, on the forums, there are a lot of impatient people who a claim the new version. The next day after the release! With crowdfunding, I will be under much higher pressure, because of money bakers had donated.
Quote voltixdark ( ) Have you had any interests from goverment organizations or anyone else?
Why did government should be interest in this?

| Quote SpaceEngineer ( ) Why did government should be interest in this?
Only thing that comes to mind is showing artistic renderings of exoplanets but there are better programs out there for that. Celestia has been used in a few history channel and Science channel shows, in movies, and in a couple NASA presentations so perhaps there are those possibilities for SE.
In the future when spacecraft are rendered in interstellar space and realistic physics are implemented I could see NASA/ESA/businesses wanting to use SE to show crafts, travel time, and interstellar distances realistically.
Perhaps in the far future of SE development if/when stars orbiting around galaxies are added SE could be used for showing realistic proper interstellar trajectories. Considering the exotic forms of propulsion being investigated at this time there is an unfilled niche for such a program.

I was thinking Edu. Departments or schools, This could be a brilliant way to show off the scale or even how space works realistically.

| Seeing that STEAM Greenlight is in place since last year. I hope this increasing exposure for the game continues to drive the funding.

| Hi !
Can you use in Russia this site (https://www.patreon.com) ?
Dwarf Fortress put his game on it, and in two days he made a pretty good income. Perhaps, if you could, it would be a good way to be more visible ? The good part of this site is that it is a "per month", and not a one shot, like a donation.
