IT... IS... ALIIIIIIIIVE!!!

And playable.

Star Commanders we are launching an all-new BETA and we can't wait to hear your passive aggressive dismissal of our progress!

Update Features:
• The FULL game from start to finish.
• 8 Tendrils to explore
• Each tendril features independent missions and encounters
• Full rebalance update
• Full bug-squashing update

We are so excited to have you play it!

Star Commanders,

We need your help for the FINAL BETA build! This build has the full game. Some parts may be a little unrefined, but it is all there, awaiting your feedback.

We can't do it without you - our loyal and fully expendable cadets.

What is there:

• 8 complete mission sets
• Dozens of randomly generated encounters
• All new weapons, enemies, ships, ship weapons... it's a LOT of new stuff
• Initial balance, pacing, economy and difficulty

What we need:

• Bug reports
• Play impressions
• Critiques and suggestions
• Unflinching Heavenly Praise
• Brutal honesty
• Odd stuff
• Wish lists
• First born children
• Kidneys
• Gameplay impressions

What isn't there yet (on purpose)

• 100% Final dialog
• Placeholder artwork, encounters,ships
• Less redundant random encounters
• final storyline... and a big twist!

Please post feedback in the discussion (steam forums) or even in the comment section of this post.

Where do we go from here?

We will take everything and anything we receive and do our best to improve and implement it before the final launch. This version of the game will help us test pacing, difficulty, overall impressions, balance and bugs.

Good luck captains!

FINAL BETA... PRE TEST - (not as cool)



Greeting Star Commanders,

We have been hard at work on getting the FINAL BETA but we need a small group of you - the chosen few reading this - to PRE-TEST to make sure there are no showstoppers.

We need you strong, able-bodied, young cadets to find any GAMEBREAKERS before the BIG GROUP gets into their easy-to-open FINAL BETA update.

SO please - help us see if there are any GAMEBREAKERS over the next few days to help prepare us for FINAL BETA launch.

If you are here to avoid such frustrations - we should be releasing the FINAL BETA shortly.

THANKS AGAIN - as always.
