An Interview with Blind Mind Studios on Game Squad talks with the folks behind Star Ruler, an upcoming science-fiction, 4X strategy game. They discuss the history of the project, various aspects of gameplay, comparisons with genre standouts Galactic Civilizations II, Sins of a Solar Empire, and Sword of the Stars, and more. The game is currently in closed beta testing, and a full release is expected on August 21, but they are still inviting players to signup to express interest in being invited into the beta.
