I'm sort of surprised that there hasn't been any discussion about this on here, since Adamant has been a Pathfinder 3PP and all. Then again, I was completely unaware of it until io9 did a story about it yesterday...
Far West
Far West Kickstarter Project
The first thing that grabbed me about this setting/game was Rick Hershey's art. Very evocative and the particular style he is using I really like (tho like one of the folks that posted on the website, I'd prefer he didn't use as common of photo references as he does - if I recognize the photo that was used, it breaks my suspension of disbelief.).
I like that the setting is a western/wuxia combo, but it isn't an alternate history. Things can be built up organically without having to try and wedge in explanations for them.
I like that there is already a bunch of short stories up on the site to sell the setting and that they are all good. And that much more fiction is coming.
I like that it is a Kickstarter project that can really stake itself out at the beginning and give it a good bit of momentum right away.
Take a look and see what you think.
(BTW, if someone from Paizo reads this and decides to go in for the Retail Patronage on Kickstarter for the web store, I'd appreciate the nod when you sign up ;)

What system does it use? Is it PFRPG-compatible? It looks interesting.
On one of the updates on the first link, they get more into it, but it is basically a d20 based system (about as similar as Mutants and Masterminds is) with a little bit of the Fate (Dresden Files) system thrown in.
