I'm a little curious about how many backers of the original kickstarter with JG are commenting/invested. I was one of those. I no longer care, but I recall that Goodman Games decided to bail out this utter embarrassment of a KS some time ago. It feels like they are trying to make good on that...
As one of the initial backers of this thing, all I can say is--put a fork in it, it's done.
