A Kickstarter, Raph? Why that and why now?
If you’ve been watching the games industry, you know the industry is going through a rough patch. Development costs are rising, funding for new games is shrinking, and companies are shutting down, canceling projects, and laying off staff.
We’ve been relying on venture capital to build Stars Reach, but like many studios in today’s market, funding has either slowed or stopped. While our investors remain committed, it’s no longer enough to carry the game through to launch. To keep momentum strong and finish the game the right way, we’re turning to the people who matter most—you, our players. Your support can help us bring Stars Reach across the finish line and deliver the game experience we’ve all been waiting for.

How Is This Different from Other Game Kickstarters?
We understand that players have been burned by crowdfunding campaigns that drag on for years or never deliver. That’s not who we are.
- The game is already playable. Hundreds of players have been exploring and enjoying Stars Reach for the past six months.
- We’re five years into development. Most of the hardest work is behind us.
- This Kickstarter is about finishing the game—not starting it.
This means supporting Stars Reach now is a much lower risk than most game campaigns.
We believe Stars Reach has the potential to revitalize the MMO genre and deliver something truly special. With your support, we can cross the finish line and bring this living galaxy to life. We’d love for you to join us on this journey.
If you have questions or feedback for us, we are answering questions and taking notes in the #kickstarter-discussion channel in the official Stars Reach Discord which you can join here: https://discord.gg/DYtN7HAN4X.
