We are happy to announce a new Stars Reach Video Series that we are going to name Community Power. This first episode will feature the GUNC guild and what they've built on Akacala... but what is GUNC, who are they, when did everything start?

Such a fun build with so many fond memories. Almost time to create new memories and this city will make its way into the history books of @playstarsreach.bsky.social .

Let’s see what explorers come up with this coming wipe, we are excited for it!

Last chance to tour the amazing constructions on Akacala. Next week the new government system requires a full wipe to test.

We got some bad news and some good news! Bad news is that we are wiping servers; thank you for building all those amazing structures and spaceships! The good news is that the wipe brings optimizations and new features, as well as improvements to UI and gameplay functionalities!

Incoming SCOOP Report on the Destruction of Mycityum...

Destruction came swiftly and unexpectedly to Mycityum and the entire sector, it required GUNC to move quickly if they had any hopes of saving any settlers.

Our first evac ship has docked and much more to come.
Looking to the future:
- multi-level housing
- med-bay to treat all the wounded that we were able to save from the destruction of the Rodin System
- engine room
- maintenance tunnels
- a lounge
- and much more

Building a spaceship was not enough, to the point that they are building a whole disco (at least it seems!). Still work in progress, they said, but it looks amazing already.
Seems everyone is having fun with RGB lights… while someone prefers lighting up the caves differently…

Loving the things that can create in @playstarsreach.bsky.social even in just pre-alpha! If you are interested in seeing some of the behind the scenes of the GAIA class cruiser (the “huge spaceship”) then take a look at our newest video:

Seeing the Stars Reach team pay attention to what the community does and then making that part of lore and now Charli the Space otter being the mascot of the TPL which JesDyr,a player, started the idea of a space otter. Never have seen a game do this. Truly a player driven game!

The end of Zaraxa captured, it was destroyed with meteors leaving lava destruction in its wake. Definitely felt like a very cinematic end for the desert planet!

Highly recommend looking for the new caves on the Wild Wormhole planets, they are extensive, beautiful and a lot of fun to get lost in!

Someone says it’s a spaceship. We say it’s a ship in space, arrrr! Someone discovered the new cave generation system, while others prefer to light up the entire world with bioluminescent vegetation…

We’ve told you many times that there are monsters that it's better not to pet. Yet you managed to have them on your side… more or less. Is it thanks to your new magic meditation? Or is it just the alien world going crazy?
