BtRL is an open source, space flight simulator powered by the enhanced FS2: Source Code Project engine.
This standalone game is set in Ron D. Moore's Re-imagined Battlestar Galactica universe.








MAIN CAMPAIGN PRIMER:

When humanity is suddenly on the verge of extinction, you, like all others in the Twelve Colonies, must fight for survival in the midst of genocide. The Cylons have returned after forty years to lay waste to their creators, and in a heartbeat, all that you know is either dead or dying.

Your skills as a pilot will guide you in choosing a singular path: one knotted with chaos and intrigue, or another, besieged by disasters and in search of temporary reprieve. Hard decisions will pave the way to an outcome unfathomable to most, but also known... because it has all happened before.

When all hell breaks loose, where do you stand?

THE BEYOND THE RED LINE TEAM IS PLEASED TO ANNOUNCE THE RELEASE OF THE BEYOND THE RED LINE DEMO, AVAILABLE NOW!

SPOILER WARNING: The following announcement and the game itself contain spoilers for Battlestar Galactica Season 2.

We thought we were saved. A week after the Nuclear Holocaust our rag-tag fleet of civilian ships, led by the captain of the Scylla, wandered aimlessly through space. When the Base ship appeared, most of us were resigned to our fate.

But then, appearing like a savior from the Gods themselves, a lone battlestar pounded through the Cylons’ defenses. We cheered the arrival of Battlestar Pegasus; her crew had saved us. Or so we thought... Death at the mechanical hands of the Cylons would have been better.

Drafted and pressed into service, your only hope of survival is to fall in line and train to join the ranks of the elite Viper pilots of Battlestar Pegasus. Get a taste of the action that awaits you in the upcoming main campaign with intense single- and multiplayer missions. Will you become one of Pegasus’ elite, or will you give your life in the vast, cold battleground of deep space?

As noted in the 'readme' on our forum download thread, the VP file is very large. It takes some time to upack, during which the install program appears to hang. This hang may last up to ten minutes in some instances, and is normal. Just be patient, and it should go through just fine.

I just tried to install it but when I start the install it gets to one file then it freezes. I am re-DLing it now but if it doesn't work then I guess I can't play it.

Dude, your demo is awesome. The controls, the atmosphere, the feel of it, the little detailed touches, all of it makes for a great experience. Great job to you and your team. Are you worried about C+D at all now that they are making an official BSG game? I hope and pray you manage to avoid that dilemna, because i can't wait to play the rest!
