The Haven Star

25/06/2022

Dear players of Haven Stars
The game test has been suspended for a while, and today I would like to share with you about our recent experience and some plans for the future.
After a long period of test at last year, we received a lot of feedback from players, which made us find that the design of gameplay is not complete yet and our technology has not yet reached the dispay and function we want. The team was determined to change this situation, and we paused test. And afterwards an improvement plan was formulated, and were divided into multiple versions and several goals were set.
1. Re-establish art standards and upgraded userinterface
2. Implement a formal worldview. Adjust the scene art, technology settings, and text contents
3. Reworked the novice guide; Reduced difficulty getting started and confirm the ease of newbies’ experience.
4. Social content is also one of the main contents of this year's edition. How do human beings help each other in armageddon? How is the work going while every unknown exploration without return date? How to distribute work? We will write down the questions and find the answer together with players.
All of the above contents have already carried out in relevant work, and two phased contents have been completed so far. There are still 3-4 large development cycles in the follow-up plan, which will require a long period of dedicated development. In the meantime, if you have any ideas, welcome to leave a message and let us know.
Looking forward to our next meeting!
