Final Goals:
Full Orchestral Score - $2.0M
The absolute best way to make a game soundtrack come alive and stand the test of time is to record it using live musicians. We will record the soundtrack for the game using the Northwest Sinfonia, the same orchestra that performed the soundtracks for Total Annihilation, Halo, and many Hollywood film scores.
Orchestral recording is expensive and difficult to produce, but the layers of texture and overall quality of a live performance cannot be beat. We want to deliver the absolute highest quality game experience that we can and a world class orchestral score is truly something Uber.
Also, Howard says he will add +Sing to the game if we can reach this goal!
A Planetary Documentary - $2.1M
And finally we would love to create a documentary about the creation of the game. See inside the studio and get your deepest game development questions answered. This comprehensive documentary will reveal our production process from concept to completion, including design and technical meetings, art conceptualization, music production, as well as community interaction.
The story of Planetary Annihilation needs to be told. Very few games have had their story told from beginning to end and we have a unique opportunity to do that here.

I can't express my sheer excitement for this enough.
TA was the first RTS I played and quite frankly is the best in my opinion.

You wont get many people disagreeing with that. My first RTS was Dune 2, 2nd may have been C&C or was it TA. Just cant remember which one but either way I still think TA has not been bettered.

Please don't blow up planet Squark!
Awesome, we can blow you up really?!

I played Dune, C&C, Red Alert, Warcraft 1 + 2, TA: kingdoms (god that was bad.)
And many more and none of the above feels as epic when you're all just patiently waiting for the giant stand off and chaos. Then someone drops a nuke or a commander explodes and wipes out everybody too.
Best times!I don't think the game will let us...
But we can reduce it to an uninhabitable radioactive dustball
Agreed on Orchestral Score. Really added to TA.

The final goals are rubbish, but it seems like it will hit galactic wars easy enough
The TA sound track is stuck in my head, so brilliant. Used to listen to it outside of the game quite a bit.
I really hope they make the orchestral goal, it would add so much to the game.
Goes to listen to the TA soundtrack...
