FROM THE STARS REACH LABORATORY
We have uncovered an experimental concept that may or may not have involvement or funding from the Transplanetary League. The technician we questioned called them “turrets” or “turret concept”.
We are excited to bring you this video:
NEW LOGO FOR STARS REACH

New Logo:
This also included an update to the Stars Reach icon as well. The hands-reaching-for-the-stars icon evolved in this transition.
NEW WEBSITE FOR STARS REACH
That’s right. We updated https://starsreach.com to a new, stronger look. The new design is more modern, dramatic, and performs better.
We are going through updating our social media presences, press kit, Steam store page, and other key elements to match our new style guide.
BEHIND-THE-SCENES WITH MARKETING
Yesterday the marketing folks got coffee and joined a livestream together to talk about a week in our lives, what kinds of things we do, the new logo, the new website, and even new logo merchandise. You can catch our VOD for a limited time here: https://www.twitch.tv/videos/2563815849
PLAYTEST SCHEDULE
Playtests are currently starting at 10:00 AM on Thursdays and running until 8:00 AM on Tuesdays. To look at it differently, the playtest is running everyday except Tuesdays and Wednesdays.
PLAY-WITH-THE-DEVS LIVESTREAM
Next Thursday, September 18th, at 9:00 AM Pacific/noon Eastern we will get together in-game in Stars Reach and on View game page to livestream some group play. We will team up to help each other clear missions, acquire raw materials, and make some progress together. Audience members are encouraged to join us in the game. We will tell you where we are on which planet, and you can join us and participate. Come play with the devs and moderators!
NEW AND OLD MERCH
A new game logo also means that new game logo merchandise arrived in the store this week!
Not only that, but a couple of pieces with the old logo were discounted and put on “last chance” sale. The old logo items will be gone soon. Check out our licensed merch in our Web Store! https://starsreach.com/store
We also have late pledges available on payment plans at our store
Backer Invites + Discord Backer Badge. Almost all of the backers have submitted their survey, but if you haven’t then search your email box.
New testers received an invite from FirstLook with a playtest schedule and instructions. (Check your spam folder if you don’t see it!)
Existing testers will not get a new invite, your Discord role should now show a Backer badge. Not yet? Log into FirstLook.gg and sync.
