To me it looks very well made I like the old Elite Force 1 graphics.


Maybe you should head in this graphics direction ( it really depends on how quick you create your assets) the only thing Iam concerned about is the license issue, giving it your own twist and rename it would be better, so that no one can shutdown your project.

The problem even with old franchises is that someone still owns the license even without doing something with it (sometimes just to sell it), so make sure no one shuts down your project.
