Star Shift 0.66 has been released! This release has fixed multiple bugs as well as added storyline.
Star Shift 0.64 has been released! This release has fixed multiple bugs as well as added a ton of new skills that players can learn in the game.
This video shows the basic introduction to Star Shift. The game is not currently complete, but the gameplay is pretty firm for about 30 hours. The game is meant to be much longer though.
In Star Shift, traditional "levels" don't matter very much. But with each battle, you learn "knowledge" and you can use that to learn skills. Some Skills are active such as a certain style of attack, other skills are passive skills like "ATK goes up by 5%".
This creates a situation in which levels don't matter, but depending on what equipment you have, or what skills you've learned, you can become extremely deadly, or really weak, even if your character's stats are the same as level 1.
Star Shift aims to be a mix of JRPG (Japanese RPG's), WRPG (Western RPG's), and TRPG (Tactical RPG).
Star Shift 0.617 has been released. This version is meant to show off some of the features coming out in 0.62 such as additional skills, improved tactical battles, and increased story depth and character development. It's an experimental release, and if it breaks your previous save file, you can go back to the previous build in Steam under Beta Tab.
