Additionally, we are thrilled to announce that Curiomatic is now collaborating with us on Star Garden! Known for their upcoming game Rollin' Rascal and the fan-favorite Smashified series, the Curiomatic team did an incredible job helping us rework this level.

Meet Leo!

Hi everyone!

Today, let's dive into one of the main stars of Star Garden: Leo!

Leo is a cosmic ecologist, specifically a field scout, who somehow stays athletic despite his infamous appetite! While he's known for having a massive heart and being fiercely protective of his friends (especially his partner-in-crime, Lyra), he does have a habit of acting before he thinks.

We are beyond excited to have the incredibly talented Kimlinh Tran voicing Leo! You might recognize Kimlinh's voice from Pokémon, Skullgirls, Dragon Ball Z: Abridged, and even Snipperclips!

Free Content Update 3 for Star Garden: The Trial Now Released!

Hi everyone!

We have BREAKING NEWS! A free content update just dropped for the Star Garden: The Trial demo on Steam!

StaRide mode is now in the demo! This is Star Garden's racing mode, where you can race against your friends on different tracks, both locally and online. The demo includes the first track, Lumi Meadows.

StaRide mode — Lumi Meadows

You can also set a race as the Finale of a CosmiClash match. Normally, a CosmiClash match ends with a fight in the Cosmic Tempest. Now, you can replace that with a race instead. Your Lumi keeps all the stats and the evolved vehicle form it gained during the match, so everything you built up still carries over to the race.

Just like in CosmiClash, random events can pop up mid-race, and some tracks have shortcuts that favor different Lumi, so there's real strategy in which one you bring.

This wraps up our planned free content updates to The Trial! We may still release balance patches and other smaller updates to the demo down the road, but our main focus now shifts to finishing the full game.

Everything we added to the demo is also going into the full game. So none of this was extra work. It was all progress on the final product too.

Also, on a related note, to those of you who backed us at the beta tester tiers, thank you! We'll have more to share about how beta access will work soon. In the meantime, we hope The Trial keeps you busy.

Please wishlist Star Garden on Steam if you haven't yet. Thank you so much for your support!

Meet Lyra!

Hi everyone!

This time let's talk about Lyra, another main character in Star Garden!

Lyra is the one who keeps every mission on track. As a cosmic ecologist and one of the pilots of the Green Haven Mk. II, she holds herself to very high standards. Whether she is following a strict rulebook or finishing a complex checklist, she expects excellence from herself and everyone around her. Lyra has a soft spot for her friends, especially Leo! Together, they make a great team.

We are thrilled to have the amazing Lizzie Freeman voicing Lyra! You have likely heard Lizzie's fantastic work in The Amazing Digital Circus, Genshin Impact, Pokémon, and even Persona 3 Reload!
