Sorry if confused you - but no, Eve is too hardcore for most of the players. We want to make a space game that everyone can play and to popularize whole sci-fi space genre.
We can do it only if game is easy to play for everyone (casual). I see why some Eve players won't like it - but they have Eve. Besides, I see zero reason to compete with CCP - not as an indie team. We aren't crazy/delusional.  From another point of view, Eve is click-n-fly or point-to-fight too, mostly. So in that, we are pretty similar to Eve - just not so crazy overloaded with different controls. Camera can rotate in 3D, zoom in and zoom out + radar view (a-la eagle eye). I don't see why Eve players should be disappointed with such controls. I believe that controls are subordinate thing. If game is intersting, atmospheric, deep and fun - I'll play no matter of what it is: sim or RTS, TBS, quest or arcade.

Nono, I think I confused you instead. xD
I meant that the combat is similar to EVE, and that fact will drive people that don't like EVE away. EVE players will probably appreciate the system more than anything.  Don't get me wrong, I've got nothing against click-to-move mechanics in space games... It can be a little disappointing at times not being able to directly fly your ship, but as you say, if the game is engaging then it doesn't matter. I'm really looking forward to seeing the completed project!

Soon we will launch our campaign on KS. We came to agreement with a movie director and began to work on our video scenario. There is a little chance that video will be made before 28 june, but most likely, it will happens in 10 jule. As soon as it's done, KS campaign will be launched... and it will be something.

I like EVE, include the way they fly. I don't really care if i can control a ship like we did in Freelancer. I think CCP use that way maybe for anit cheat or make data packet sync easier.
I just hope if you release a demo, please don't make it downloadable only from Facebook, i'm the one who here have no chance to see that site. AND PLEASE, don't let those Japanese Comic interferes you, had enough with those fake sci-fi fans kids. (Not mean you Bob, sorry)

Thanks! Some answers: EVE made such controls due to limitations of internet channels data transfer limitations. If there will be many ships (50+), and it will be freelancer-like controls, there will be too much broadcast data to transfer. This means every next ship will expotentially add data to transfer. We did experiment earlier and 50-60 players were almost absolute maximum per area. So, if it would be sim-type game, real MMO wouldn't be possible in our days. We will release first version quite soon already, we hope - this autumn.Maybe there will be a little demo-level of alpha, I don't know. I'll be pushing that idea tomorrow, but we need to calculate our time, if it's possible at all. We will try though. And surely no japanise comics, no. We have our game style (soon some portraits will be added to our FB page, to show our NPC's and quality of their portraits).
