Guys, y’all need to hear some of this music from 1993’s Protostar. It’s so amazing.
There is an article about House of the Dying Sun on RPS.
Eeeeeh, Brian, have you seen this? (searching the forum yielded no finds, but I´ve learnt not to trust it):

Just found out about it and this is pretty much my dream space game. Looks messy and it´s not clear how it plays (honestly, at this point and given the scope of the project, it´s not even clear it will release, even though there seems to be a lot of solid technology already implemented), but the ambition here is outstanding… Have a read at the blog!
Ohhhhh, nice find, thank you! This is new to me, entirely!
Well, read the blog to see waht they are about :P. It´s really an astounding drive for scientific feasability in a simulation of space combat (although wether that´s going to produce a good game, who knows).
Hey friends, welcome to another week of spacey gaming goodness! This week has a bunch of stuff, such as my first multiplayer Let’s Play, so watch as we try to feed the galaxy in Space Food Truck! Today I also have previews of Sol Trader and ASTROKILL! Later this week I’ll have previews of Rogue System and another look at Rodina!
Tonight on the (5:30 PM PDT), we’ll welcome to the developer of the space strategy/board game hybrid game thingy, [url=http://store.steampowered.com/app/439960/]Falling Stars: War of Empires!
On Thursday, you can vote on what I’ll play at 5:30 PDT. Currently Star Trek Online is winning!
Thanks my friends! :)

Hey Brian, thanks for the heads up about Nox on reddit. Haven’t played it in a very long time. Now I don’t have to look for the CD which is ghod knows where.
(I know this seems self-serving - but I played Protostar on release and BR’s let’s play has jogged some nice old memories of very weird, slightly fun, and erratic gameplay.) (for what its worth)
That’s a great way to describe it, that’s for sure. Thanks for watching!
OMG you guys, I am SO GIDDY. For an upcoming podcast (7/5), I just confirmed one of the folks who worked on the design and development of Klingon Academy!!! He also might try to get some of his former co-workers to join in!!!
Getting guests for these older games is a lot tougher than one might think, so I am just over the moon right now! :)
Loved Klingon Academy back in the day. I’m glad you got that chance! Definitely gonna listen to that one.
BTW, everyone, it seems not only Brian Rubin is playing House of the Dying Sun - Tom Chick is playing as well! Curious to hear what they think about the game.
I feel kind of ready to return to this game tonight. Been 26 years since I’ve played it though. ;)
Complete with the ubiquitous 80’s Punk/New Wave-influenced “up-do.” Nice!
House of the Dying Sun now has a (Early Access) release date: June 7th.
I think you can talk about it now Brian.
