Beyond the Gates of Antares: after kickstarter

I just had to return to this old news to make a conclusion on this project's fate. 
Current status: Kickstarter canceled, development continues.

After much consideration we have decided to withdraw our project from Kickstarter.
We’d like to thank you all for believing in us and backing us, GoA will still become a reality but through different means.

We will take the next month to reassess our plans, during this time you will still see us on the forums and we will continue to post updates to our website. Once we have a plan set we will let you all know what it is so that we can continue to build GoA together.

Well, the reasoning for this decision was obvious. The requested sum was quite substantial, time was short and amount of completed stuff by the start of campaign was tiny.  Withdrawing the project was a good step, better leave undefeated and carry on next time.    

The good news is there is an Outline version of the rulebook!

Good afternoon everyone and a very warm welcome to our newer backers! Today we finally have the outline rulebook for you to play with - Hurrah! you can get it here : http://www.darkspacecorp.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/02/Beyond-the-Gates-of-Antares-Outline-Rulebook.pdf

A MASSIVE THANK YOU to Krazus for helping us put this together! This is still a work in progress document so do try not to be overly critical at this stage, we're very much wanting you guys to be involved in the progress and this is a very early stage to be releasing anything. We're getting some great feedback on how it plays so we'd like as many of you as possible to start playing games with your friends as that will both help to get more backers on board and of course we want your feedback!

Thanks
Rik

So if things will go as Rik Priestly have announced, the Beta version of the game will come in Autumn 2013. Fingers crossed. :-D 

P.S. just i case if upper link will disappear: the outline book is here.
