Here's the homepage for it.

Plenty of links from there.

Here's an FAQ

I was pretty excited about it at first, but then found out they are not doing it as a turn based game. It's some kind of "hybrid" real-time combat game that pauses at certain events. Also, they've cut out quite a bit of the things that I liked in X-COM like the tanks, the intercepts, etc.

Also, the whole thing has the feel of vaporware to it. JMO.

Agreed. My interest has waned as well. It's been in pseudo-development for eons and eons.

I was excited as well. X-com was one of my favorite games. That's just another line of bad news for some games I wanted to see. Harpoon4 was pushed back again to the end of this year.

I was excited also, but I am quickly losing interest...
