Mongrel a new kickstarter project

I am a sucker for a metroidvania style game , the upgrading, the exploring and just the feeling your character is getting more and more powerful. But i feel that nothing has really come along to really move the genre along they seem content to stick with 8/16bit graphics and yet could be so much more.Then i saw this picture on kickstarter
I thought that looks great so went to have a look, unfortunately it turned out to be concept art the footage shown was nowhere near as good as the art which is a shame.

But still the project does show some promise with gameplay and details on the influences though i have never heard of the developer but they have a site and they say they formed in 2014 and they have a website here http://www.fischmell.com/.

I think it has potential but my concerns are a new developer and a budget which when converted is only about $10,000 which does not seem that much at all but still the fact there is footage makes me optimistic.
