IGN: What can you tell us about the game's development status right now?
Dan Elggren: We're doing a lot of internal play testing. The game's up, it's running, we've got it on the servers, we've got regular play sessions where the team just jumps on and plays the game and provides feedback. We're slowly opening the technical doors to larger external play testing. We're still keeping it close-knit, you know friends that we want to have play the game that we feel can give it the proper feedback. We'll pound on that for probably another few months and then go from there.
This quote maybe a couple of months old from what I can see.
To me this defiantly sounds like they are in Alpha.
