Editor’s Note: Jared Dillenger, Gala’s Head of Influencer Marketing and KOLs, wrote this article following the recent community and influencer event at the Coins.ph Philippines headquarters. We always enjoy opportunities to connect with some of our most valued supporters who share our excitement for the future of GalaChain.

As the head of influencer marketing and KOLs at Gala Games, I recently had the pleasure of organizing a community event that brought together the vibrant supporters of Gala Games in the heart of BGC, Taguig City. It was an evening filled with engaging conversations, exciting announcements, and a whole lot of fun.

Bringing the Community Together

The event was designed to be relaxed and enjoyable, allowing our community members to connect and share their enthusiasm for Gala Games. We took the opportunity to introduce the community to the concept of the Gala Music Ecosystem and emphasized the importance of getting talented artists, particularly Filipino musicians, on board. The response from the community was incredibly positive, and we were thrilled to see so many individuals eager to contribute to this initiative.

Encouraging Engagement

During the event, we encouraged our community members to actively participate in Gala Games’ growth by inviting others to join through the referral program. This not only fosters a sense of involvement but also contributes to the expansion of our community, which is vital for the success of Gala Games.

Exciting Announcements

A few upcoming projects were announced throughout the course of the evening and the anticipation was palpable. Announcements included sneak peeks at GalaSwap, the GalaChain-built decentralized exchange platform that has (since the event) been released in its initial version.

A Festive Atmosphere

The event featured a delightful spread of food and drinks, creating a convivial atmosphere where attendees could mingle and connect. The inclusion of a photo booth added a playful element, allowing everyone to capture memorable moments throughout the evening. Moreover, the music played by the DJ at the event was particularly special as it was exclusively sourced from the Gala Music App itself.

Memorable Venue and Content Creation


Held at the Coins.Ph headquarters in BGC, Taguig, the venue provided the perfect backdrop for our event. The stunning lights and inviting setup added to the overall charm of the evening, creating a visually captivating environment. Additionally, we took the opportunity to create content during the event. My video team and I conducted interviews, capturing the essence of the event and providing a behind-the-scenes look that our community members could enjoy and share.

The immensity of the galaxy is starting to feel like a powder keg of competition and conquest, as things are heating up in Echoes of Empire. In the time that the Empire’s rule stretched throughout known space, it was easy to point fingers and cast blame–Now that the remnant noble houses are grappling for power and control, everyone is getting an idea of the sheer brutality left by the Empire’s absence.

Whether you support the Garrison’s military might, the Arbeiters’ merchant-driven diplomacy or the dignified ancestry and heavy hand of the Royals, now is the time to take what’s yours in the galaxy. Play for free, upgrading and building your Homebase into a formidable force that will make your enemies think twice before trying to take what you have earned.

Mine resources from Celestial Objects owned by other players to earn Stardust. Every day, 50% of each player’s Stardust is burned, locking in that player’s share of the daily $GALA reward distribution. But beware! Everyone is looking for more Stardust and your excess is just a raid away, so be sure to build up a force ready to defend your base!

Upcoming Features & Upgrades

Here is a rundown of the upcoming features slated to be added to the live game, starting with the most immediate high priority additions.

High Priority–Coming Soon

Capital Ship Combat Update

The team will soon refactor the combat system for Capital Ships, calculating damage procedurally among defenders and adding a cap to the total number of defending Capital Ships at any given time.

Real-time Player Fleet Movement

Players will soon have the ability to monitor the movement of other players’ fleets on the map, giving everyone an opportunity to detect incoming attacks and enemy mining operations. To maintain optimal performance, this feature will be capped to a user-adjusted number of viewable enemy fleets.

PvE Combat

The game’s first PvE battles will soon be added to Echoes of Empire, allowing players to attack certain Celestial Objects with a variety of enemy themes, presenting new challenges and rewards. Defeating these celestial “villains” means an opportunity to gather new types of resources.

Leaderboard

Giving players a chance to compare themselves to the top players in the game at any time, the player leaderboard will look at crucial stats like combat power and Stardust owned.

Rally Attacks

Rallies are a new type of multi-fleet attack that will let players invite comrades and guildmates to help defeat a powerful foe. Players will start Rally attacks, then additional supporters will have an opportunity to join the attack with their own fleets before it commences.

Guilds

This is a large upgrade for owners of Celestial Objects, claimed using Celestial Claim Tokens. Buildings on owned Celestial Objects will receive stat boosts and additional functions, such as defenses and increases to inventory space.

Flagship Modules and Crafting

Players will have the ability to create modules to be added to their Flagships, increasing various stats and enhancing their Flagships.

On the Distant Horizon

A robust system of daily login rewards will incentivize players to login on a regular basis. New rewards will unlock each day and players will receive anything from in-game resources to utility items such as shields and teleporters.

In-app Purchase Bundles

This update will bring more variety and value to in-game purchasing by allowing players to spend credits on bundles to receive multiple items with single purchases.
