Better late than never.
Well this was supposed to have been posted 2 weeks ago, but damned if I didn't just get crazy busy and keep putting it off. I know, bad me, bad me.
After what is now 10 weeks our team has had a couple of upsets, most notably losing one member after month 1 and then losing a second member after our second month. The team (now just 3 of us) continues to work diligently to achieve our original goal.
If all goes well in the next 2 weeks I'll post an alpha build here for anyone to download and play.
