Project Nimbus, the aerial combat game featuring everyone's favorite vehicles, giant mechs, has successfully reached its funding goal.

The Project Nimbus Kickstarter campaign is still open for a couple more days, and the modest goal developer KISS was hoping for has been more than doubled by the game's supporters.

The game is set in the late 21st century, after a great war devastated the Earth's surface, forcing mankind to escape to the skies. The remaining three factions still wage their war for resources, each of them trapped in its own floating cities, desperately trying to procure the much needed energy required to fly.

The game features fast-paced intense robot dogfights, all mechs being equipped with an assortment of machine guns, cannons, lasers, drones and missiles and engaging in full-freedom aerial combat.

The game will come out for PC and Mac, and will feature Oculus Rift support and both third- and first-person HUD view.
