Galaxy in Turmoil is the spiritual successor to the failed Star Wars: Battlefront III, which was originally created as a fan remake. Having abandoned the elements of "Star Wars" at the request of Lucasfilm and Electronic Arts, Frontwire studio brought the project to release on Steam.
True, so far only in Early Access. According to the site
https://www.hermitgamer.com/, the developers took this step because of the failure of the Kickstarter campaign - out of the required $ 500,000 they collected a total of 5,212.
As the company explains, more than 150 thousand people who added the game to the wish list did not receive a notification about the demo release, which appeared along with the start of crowdfunding. It turned out that the Galaxy in Turmoil itself and its “demo” in the Valve store were different applications - apparently, the notification came only to those who for some reason made a trial version in the “wishlist”.
Therefore, the demo decided to re-release under the guise of the main game in early access, so that all players receive alerts. The authors are not going to restart the fundraising yet - first they will let the community play the current version of the game, and then they will make further plans.
