One of the things we are striving for providing as many engaging playstyles to our players as possible.
We have a lot of planned ship customization and meta progression in the work to support that.
Very excited to show off more progress on this topic as those features become ready to show off!

In our spacefaring #roguelike, Project Starborn, pilotable ships are divided into three classes: frigates, cruisers, and battleships!
Generally speaking, larger classes offer better survivability and a higher weapons-platform capacity at the cost of mobility. 💥🚀

This is one of the latest features I've been working on! It's been a constant battle of making it visually engaging while also making the user experience solid.
I'm always looking to hear player feedback!

Progress on the 'Starmap', your key to navigating the galaxy in our upcoming sci-fi #roguelike, Project Starborn! 🗺️
Balancing this hasn’t been easy. Should pilots scour the entire sector, or blitz the enemy flagship? We discuss this in our newsletter—link in replies! 👇
