This sums it up I think:
"Chris used a neat strategy against me in a memorable free-for-all game between him, Konrad, and myself. I launched a massive surprise attack on Chris's mining base, so he traveled back in time, prepared a large fleet to counter my attack and succeeded. However, in the present I acquired nukes and sent a nuke back to the end of the battle that destroyed his remaining fleet. Before it was over, he jumped back further in time, moved his mining base and undid his counter attack. Since his fleet had left the area and my army had conquered it, my nuclear blast from the future decimated my own forces! Right at that time, Konrad came at me with his forces, so I didn't have time to undo my nuclear blast."
I believe the graphics are just for a prototype proof of concept. I think they've been spending years making the gameplay solid, and have another year to put some half decent graphics. But I'm not really sure. It looks like a small dev, so it might actually look like that. But doesn't matter much if the gameplay is great and it's cheap.
They say they're looking for a publisher so they can get art done and stuff, and that pretty much just art and balancing is left. The UI and controls look solid already.
