Title misleading?

"If we reach £1.4 million in funding through the Kickstarter project, we will release a Mac version of the game around 3 months after the initial Windows PC release."

£989,339 pledged of £1,250,000 goal

I suppose I should have used "Elite Dangerous to get Mac support within 3 months of PC launch if project funded and stretch goal met", but it wasn't very catchy!

"£500.000 Still Needed for Elite Dangerous for Mac"?

Horrendously misleading! I just flagged this post because of that. I almost pledged based on the title. Should have known better.

Please do pledge! I really want to play the game and having a Mac port would be even sweeter!

I don't really want to pledge for a game I might not be able to play. Unfortunately, the fact that it's a stretch goal rather than part of the main goal means that I lose out on Kickstarter's escrow, so there's a real risk of that.
