๐ŸŒŒ StellarCraft Devlog

Commander, brace yourselves โ€” something big is coming! Our team has been hard at work on the next major milestone for StellarCraft, and today we're thrilled to give you a first glimpse at whatโ€™s in development. ๐Ÿš€

[h2]๐Ÿช A New Planet on the Horizon[/h2]
With the upcoming Planet Update, weโ€™re introducing an entirely new world to explore โ€” mysterious, challenging, and packed with fresh dangers. Youโ€™ll face 5 brand-new levels, each bringing stunning visuals, unique mechanics, and exciting new enemies. ๐Ÿ‘€

We donโ€™t want to spoil too much just yet, but hereโ€™s a sneak peek to get you hyped:



[h2]๐Ÿ”ง The Armory โ€“ Gear Up for Customization![/h2]
Before the Planet Update arrives, weโ€™ll be rolling out a new Weapon System Update! This update will unlock the Armory, where you can begin customizing your default weapon.

This system works differently from anything else in StellarCraft:

  • Unlock unique components
  • Attach them directly to your weapon
  • Create your own personalized combat style


๐Ÿ› ๏ธ Buying brand-new weapons will be part of the Planet Update, but the upcoming patch lays the groundwork โ€” allowing you to start upgrading and experimenting right away.

Stay tuned, follow us for more teasers and behind-the-scenes content, and get ready for the biggest update in StellarCraftโ€™s history. We can't wait to see you soon on the new planet. ๐ŸŒ 

Until then โ€“ upgrade, gear up, survive.
