Since your front page still says it's expected to launch in march, and march is over, I was wondering if there was a new plan for when the game will be playable?

I started changing all the March Kickstarter dates to "Possibly May" or "middle of 2016" for the next try. I was thinking of trying to do an Alpha without the event system in place but I'm not sure anymore. Things have been taking longer than expected, as usual. It's also a pain to change things while the game is running and I might have to blow out the game every time I try to update it. Then again, so what, I mean you're playing for free right? =)

There is a couple of details with the attack system, with raiding, that I need to fix. Then a couple tweaks to contracts so they work right. I'm considering stopping there and see if I can get the game playable. There would be no events, voting or even building outside of the Sol System and god knows what bugs you'll find but you could play it. I was shooting for a playable Alpha weeks ago so I really need to find a stopping point and give it a try. I might be able to get to that point in a week or two

I might make an Alpha Incoming post that details what's left before I put it up. When it goes up I'll invite all you big fans first then open it up to anyone who's signed up quietly
