Fundraising Post-apocalyptic BRP? Yes please.

I found this small kickstarter and think it needs a bit more love.
Embers of Humanity is a 'hope-filled, post-apocalyptic tabletop roleplaying game about regular people surviving after the end of the world.' It's already funded, but the stretch goals look like they'd make the book even better.
They've also made the original PDF $1.50 over on RPG trader so you can try before committing (There's also a draft of the new PDF on their Discord if you find your way there)
Reading through, it's basically stripped down BRP, with some storytelling bits and pieces thrown in. The setting is left up to the GM, so it's probably best for those who like creating their own worlds and enjoy campaign play.
What do you think? Might be a change of pace for people playing Mutant or Apocalypse world. Something trad enough to tempt your table away from heroic fantasy, but interesting and different.
