The indie developer I-Novae studios will do a kickstarter for their space sim Infinity Battlescape. Their game also uses procedural generation with full planets and seamless landing.
Their old tech-demo videos are pretty, but they're not professional game developers like Frontier. I-Novae lacks experience and financial clout to make a space sim.
Elite Dangerous is much further in development and we saw during the beta and updates that it's difficult to build a great space sim.
Frontier has the upper-hand so they should release the Planetary Expansion before Infinity Battlescape comes out. Then Infinity stays behind Elite and won't be as impressive.
See the Rough Draft for Kickstarter Rewards.
Update on the status of the Kickstarter.
