StarMap 2022 Q4: A Solid Launch Pad

After a turbulent summer, StarShip leadership remains focused on its vision. Navigating changes and learning curves alike, StarShip’s resilience is undeniable. Our 2022 Q4 roadmap sets out how we plan to close out a year marked by much evolution to strengthen the foundation upon which sustainable—and meteoric—growth can thrive.

Read on to learn more about StarShip’s plans for 2022’s final quarter.

An at-a-glance view of StarShip’s 2022 Quarter 4 plans.

Key initiatives

2022’s final quarter StarMap encompasses five key initiatives: establishing a base, further game development, introducing art and storytelling, expanding our product line and increasing StarShip’s visibility.

All of these feed into the overarching goal of strengthening our relationship with our second-to-none community.

Establishing the StarShip base

The end of quarter three saw CEO Matt Albright move to beautiful San Juan, Puerto Rico. San Juan is a buzzing and budding global hub of innovation, especially in the arenas of business, technology and cryptocurrency. Establishing our base in San Juan provides strategic opportunities in the form of grants, development programs and networking events that will serve as StarShip’s rocket fuel to position us at the forefront of gaming and entertainment on and off the blockchain.

Therefore, one of the key initiatives to close out 2022 will be completing the logistics that such a move entails: acquiring and setting up an office, recruiting a talented in-house team, applying for funding and education opportunities and attending networking events to meet new community members and collaborators alike.

Further development of Deploy StarShip

Quarter four will begin with an audit of Deploy StarShip with particular emphasis on improving user experience. Once quality of life changes are completed, we will move onto developing new gameplay features, which are expected to be released early next year. As part of this initiative, we will be expanding our in-house development team, starting with recruitment of two full-time developers. We will also continue to collaborate with talented organizations in the game creation space.

Introducing the art and lore of starShip

The middle of October marks the start of official lore releases. In addition to releasing one new First Edition Grassland Creature NFT each week, we will publish accompanying short stories to give deeper insight into the adventure-filled universe of StarShip—not to mention, to provide the community with a healthy dose of escapism. Longer term, the lore is expected to shape future features within Deploy StarShip, being adapted into quests and clues to enhance the gameplay experience. StarShip’s art and lore will also be released in mediums beyond the digital world, including in the form of jigsaw puzzles, comic books and board games.

Expanding StarShip’s product line

StarShip will expand its product line while inviting in new community members with collector’s edition jigsaw puzzles. The puzzles will feature the art and lore of StarShip to pique the imagination as well as an invitation to learn more about Deploy StarShip. Those who purchase a puzzle will also be able to claim a first edition NFT.

We will start the quarter with logistics: finding a quality puzzle printer, finalizing the product design and establishing an online marketplace. The puzzles will go on sale towards the end of the year, just in time to celebrate Deploy StarShip’s first birthday. Marketing campaigns that raise awareness of the puzzles will continue through the year’s end to optimize reach.

Increasing the visibility of StarShip

Another main project of the quarter is creating and launching a new website, one that effectively captures the essence of StarShip—who we are, what we offer and how to join our fleet. The website will go live at the end of November to coincide with the launch of the new online store and product offerings.

We will also be putting into practice a renewed marketing strategy to achieve growth and engagement goals related to StarShip’s social media audience, website traffic and email lists.
