I saw this sci-fi RPG on Kickstarter today and found the setting described in the video interesting. It mixes the sci-fi elements with religious mysticism where you apparently have spirits and gods called Icons. The game itself centers on your spaceship where the players are crew and you travel to different spaceports looking for work and dealing with all the factions of the setting.
From the description it looks like the rule set is a modified version of their previous game Mutant: Year Zero. I never played M:YZ but took a look at a couple of reviews and its free preview. The reviews I saw were pretty good but it was hard to tell how the system plays since the preview for M:YZ only really covered character creation but what I saw looked alright. It looks like a d6 dice pool system where the more 6s you roll the more critical your success and if you fail to roll any 6s it counts as a failure. I have no idea how combat is handled though.
With 24 days left the Kickstarter has already passed its funding goal and is well into its stretch goals. Here's the link if you want to take a look.
