- Posted on Nov 20 2001, 08:33:00 by Faustus
Austin, Texas, November 20, 2001 - Palestar, Inc. today announced that their action/strategy massive multi-player title DarkSpace has now registered more than 20,000 players to their Open Beta program which began in mid July.



During the last four months Palestar has continued to improve the game play and accessibility of DarkSpace prior to launch. Loyal testers and players played a large role in this overall improvement of the product. Many thoughts and suggestions have made their way into the final product.



Now Palestar is nearing it's official launch date. Last minute details are nearly complete with Palestar's new worldwide partner. An announcement is expected in the coming week or so as to their partner and details of the launch.



Richard Lyle, Palestar's President and Lead Programmer, comments 'We're pleased with the way in which the game plays at this point. With the recent addition of the map editor, we believe the product is ready for launch. Now we're simply awaiting our agreement with the new partner to be finalized.'



The Austin-based developer envisions the beta test period will close shortly but that new interested gamers may still download the client and play DarkSpace until an announcement is made as to the official launch date. To play DarkSpace head over to http://www.darkspace.net to download the client through Palestar's many host and partner sites.
