- FINAL BETA... PRE TEST - (not as cool) - 27 October 2021
Greeting Star Commanders, We have been hard at work on getting the FINAL BETA but we need a small group of you - the chosen few reading this - to PRE-TEST to make sure there are no showstoppers. We need you strong, able-bodied, young cadets to find any GAMEBREAKERS before the BIG GROUP gets into their easy-to-open FINAL BETA update. SO please - help us see if there are any GAMEBREAKERS over the next few days to help prepare us for FINAL BETA launch. If you are here to avoid such frustrations - we should be releasing the FINAL BETA shortly. THANKS AGAIN - as always. WARBALLOON Leave comments & feedback & bugs & hatemail here or in forum.

- NEW BETA /// KILL ALIENS /// GIVE FEEDBACK - 1 May 2021
Star Commanders, The solar flares are flaring, the Glorsnoofs are snarlinging, and another BETA update has landed. Star Command BETA v 9000.3 has arrived and it needs your beta testing! Does it load? Is it boring? Who is your Daddy and what do they do? Tell us! Help us! Love us? HOW TO HELP: Please go to your Library >> Star Command Galaxies >>> Right Click - 'Properties' >> BETAS >> betatesting - 'Beta Testing branch' AND THATS IT ... (no password needed) Start the game...

Here is a short list of the bugs we attempted to fix: fixed big issue with enemy damage making objects unrepairable fixe…
- Things are only impossible until they're not. - 12 March 2021
Star Commanders, After a few long orbits in the outer asteroid belt, we are happy to report we have a brand new BETA build up on the Beta-testing branch on Steam. It is live right now, you simply need to enable it inside the game 'properties' in your Steam Library. So what is new? Well we fixed a lot of the AI, and a lot of mission polish, balance and tightening of all things all around. It is simply in a much better state and should feel very good. You can also theoretically beat the entire game now. The latter missions purposefully use repeated encounters to placehold - but if this all works we'll update those before final launch with new challenging content. What we would LOVE is overall feedback about your time in the game - any consistent bugs? What annoyed you? What did you love? What do you want us to work on the most to improve? What do you miss from mobile? Any feedback is welc…
- New SC:G Update at long last! - 22 June 2020
Hello Star Commanders! We would love to get your feedback on the latest beta we just put up on the beta branch. We are excited to hear your thoughts! So this is a 90% done version and should take about 2-5 hours to play from start to end. We have turned off the second half of the game for now, as we think that we can tweak and balance it based on feedback we get from this beta. So PLEASE let us know how the latest game plays, and we will be improving it based upon feedback as we make the final push! What’s in there now: 4 adventures: Salvage, Rebel chase, Asteroid SOS, Orbital Decay. What is done but we have disabled for now - waiting for YOUR feedback for balance and pacing: 5 More adventures: Rebel Wave, Tourist Trap, Grolbellion, Rebel Base, Ending Those 9 adventures will be our launch title: there will also be other game modes of various sorts. Thanks for your help! and thank you ah…
- Beta 4 on beta branch - 8 October 2019
Hey Star Commanders, As we approach a more and more complete version of Star Command Galaxies we'd love to have your input if you are up for the task! We are releasing the latest BETA build on the Beta Branch as of now. The game is like 90% there but that last 10% will make the game sing - but until it does we need your help, in the comments/discussions with the following items: - BUGS? If your game crashed our back-end will register these bugs - GREAT - most likely no discussion needed. Still though, we would like to hear the stories behind these incidents to make sure our findings match with your crashes. - SOFT BUGS? Any weird oddities / game-enders / weird moments / stuck? / Not working? - Concepts that took too long to understand? Is there something that seems awkward to understand or things about the game that made no sense for a while. - Weapons or enemies feedback - overpowered/…
