Hey Reachers,<\/span><\/p>\n

Stars Reach development is entering an exciting phase! While we can\u2019t wait for you to experience what we\u2019re working on, we do need to share news about changes coming to the regular playtests.<\/span><\/p>\n

We\u2019ve reached an inflection point in our development, and we\u2019re about ready to start implementing a number of systems and features you\u2019ve been asking for. Because of the rapid iteration, we expect that there may be a greater volume of disruptions. For that reason, we\u2019re asking for both your patience and understanding over the coming weeks.<\/span><\/p>\n

For those of you already in the playtest, you\u2019ll continue to have access as we open our doors, though the timing and length of playtests is subject to change. <\/span><\/p>\n

If you\u2019re a Kickstarter backer with playtest access, your access remains available based on your rewards. You\u2019ve been on this journey with us, and we want to ensure we\u2019re honoring that support.<\/span><\/p>\n

For those that have not joined us yet, we do need to pause additional invites for now. We want your first steps into our galaxy to be wonderful, even at this phase, and we can\u2019t guarantee that as we rapidly iterate.<\/span><\/p>\n

If you\u2019re not in yet, don\u2019t worry! The waitlist will remain open, and we\u2019ll let the community know when we\u2019re ready to welcome new waves of testers.<\/span><\/p>\n

Why We\u2019re Doing This<\/h4>\n

Development is accelerating, and we want to spend this phase focused on building, implementing, and iterating at a faster pace.<\/span><\/p>\n

If you\u2019re an active tester, we\u2019ll need your feedback more than ever as you begin seeing:<\/span><\/p>\n

    \n
  • More frequent updates<\/span><\/li>\n
  • New systems and features sooner<\/span><\/li>\n
  • Faster iteration based on your valuable feedback<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

    For everyone else, you\u2019ll be able to follow along with continued patch notes, Fireside Chats, and regular communication.<\/span><\/p>\n

    We have many systems to put in that are interdependent and need to be deployed together. Because of this, we may need temporary downtime while we make improvements. We hope you\u2019ll consider any potential downtime as a positive, as we work to rapidly add new features and refine those already implemented.<\/span><\/p>\n

    We\u2019ll be sure to keep everyone informed along the way. Thank you for coming on this journey to the Stars with us. We can\u2019t wait to show you what we\u2019ve been working on!<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":217806712,"featured_media":7619,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"advanced_seo_description":"","jetpack_seo_html_title":"","jetpack_seo_noindex":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_access":"","_jetpack_dont_email_post_to_subs":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_tier_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paywalled_content":false,"fifu_image_url":"https:\/\/imagedelivery.net\/0nVxk3MiKh8CpnBllFxdQQ\/8ff93a8b-fa3a-4faa-3f7e-47a33d0f9c00\/1920x1080","fifu_image_alt":"","_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":"","jetpack_publicize_message":"","jetpack_publicize_feature_enabled":true,"jetpack_social_post_already_shared":true,"jetpack_social_options":{"image_generator_settings":{"template":"highway","default_image_id":0,"font":"","enabled":false},"version":2},"_wpas_customize_per_network":false,"jetpack_post_was_ever_published":false},"categories":[1462,1459],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-7617","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-all-news","category-from-the-devs"],"jetpack_publicize_connections":[],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"https:\/\/imagedelivery.net\/0nVxk3MiKh8CpnBllFxdQQ\/8ff93a8b-fa3a-4faa-3f7e-47a33d0f9c00\/1920x1080","jetpack_likes_enabled":true,"jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"jetpack_shortlink":"https:\/\/wp.me\/pdLeGO-1YR","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/starsreach.com\/es\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/7617","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/starsreach.com\/es\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/starsreach.com\/es\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/starsreach.com\/es\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/217806712"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/starsreach.com\/es\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=7617"}],"version-history":[{"count":4,"href":"https:\/\/starsreach.com\/es\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/7617\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":7622,"href":"https:\/\/starsreach.com\/es\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/7617\/revisions\/7622"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/starsreach.com\/es\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/7619"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/starsreach.com\/es\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=7617"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/starsreach.com\/es\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=7617"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/starsreach.com\/es\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=7617"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
