Gala Games Updates from Outer Space: News on Battlestar Galactica Eternity and Echoes of Empire

As we continue to explore the vast expanse of our gaming universe, it’s time to share some significant updates about our two space-themed games: Battlestar Galactica Eternity and Echoes of Empire. These updates highlight the dynamic nature of game development within the Gala ecosystem and underscore our commitment to delivering exceptional gaming experiences.

Battlestar Galactica Eternity: Farewell, and Thank You

We regret to announce that the development of Battlestar Galactica Eternity has been officially canceled. This decision was not made lightly, and we understand it may come as a disappointment to our community. Still, occasional cancellations are an inevitable part of the game development process. This move will allow us to reallocate valuable resources to other active projects, ensuring a more streamlined and rapidly growing ecosystem.

For those who have purchased in-game NFTs for Battlestar Galactica Eternity, rest assured that we will offer refunds. If you still possess these NFTs, we will require you to send them back to us to process the refund. More details on the timing and method of the refund will be provided soon. We appreciate your patience and understanding as we work through these logistics.

Echoes of Empire: A Bright Future Ahead

While the team at Ion Games has done an excellent job building the foundation of this amazing 4X space adventure, it looks like its full potential will be realized under the guidance of a new owner. As details and agreements are still being finalized, we cannot yet say who will sit in the Captain’s chair, but our expectation is that extraordinary excitement awaits as we venture together into the uncharted reaches of space.

Development of Echoes of Empire will continue. We think you’ll be happy with the next updates and the new developers’ builds to the current roadmap.

Thanks to Ion Games

We want to extend our heartfelt thanks to the Ion Games team for their dedication and hard work in creating such an amazing 4X game. They’ve been integral not only to the game’s development but also as points of contact for the Echoes of Empire community. We look forward to sharing more information as we can. We encourage players to reach out in the Discord community with any questions and stay tuned for further updates.

Recalibrate and Conquer

These updates reflect our ongoing efforts to adapt and improve within the Gala ecosystem. While the cancellation of Battlestar Galactica Eternity is unfortunate, it opens up new opportunities for growth and development in other areas. By heading for new horizons with a new crew, Echoes of Empire is positioning itself to finish 2024 stronger than ever.

Thank you for your continued support and enthusiasm as we navigate these changes. Stay connected with us for more updates and join the conversation in our Discord community.

The Time is Now… The WEN is Here

The Time is Now… The WEN is Here

Anyone who’s been around the block(chain) at Gala has certainly seen it throughout the Discord community

It’s taken the form of memes, wisecracks and even legitimate queries about expected launch dates from curious and well-meaning supporters.

TBH, it’s become an important (and expected) part of the Gala experience. We can’t quite say it’s on the level of this guy yet…

But this new development is a step in that direction.

Thanks to GalaSwap’s new Project Token Creation Tool, WEN Coin now officially exists on GalaChain.

Each day, new tokens are being submitted by the community. Some are connected to in-development projects at various stages, some are linked to guild membership and others are just meme tokens that are deserving of a quick and hearty belly laugh.

WEN: Because Waiting is the New Hype! Introducing WEN, the token for those who know the struggle! Inspired by legendary delays in the ecosystem, WEN is here to make waiting worthwhile. Embrace the joke, join the fun, and let’s turn the wait into something great. With WEN, you’re not just able to have a coin—you have the community’s laughter. Because hey, good things come to those who wait… and wait… and wait!

-Token description submitted with Founder’s Node vote

The creator of WEN Coin has gone even further by integrating GalaSwap API into a WEN Coin tracking site called GalaCoins… Check it out!

This fun meme token is a great example of how the GalaSwap Project Token Creation Tool can be used, whether yours is a serious project, a big idea or nothing more than a humorous prank. 

Burning $GALA for Ecosystem Health

By creating community tokens like WEN Coin (and dozens of others already approved), creators are supporting a healthy GalaChain ecosystem by demonstrating the chain’s power.

Every token submitted for Founder’s Node vote requires a non-refundable $100 $GALA fee (burned), plus an additional amount of $GALA set aside by the creator as a burn allowance, to be burned once the token is approved.

Rewards for Gala Founder’s Nodes

All tokens created via the Project Token Creation Tool must be approved by popular vote in the Gala Founder’s Node ecosystem. When new tokens are submitted, node operators have 24 hours to decide if the new token is worthy of being added to the ecosystem. So far, all submitted tokens have been approved.

Here’s to a new wave of epic and tradable meme tokens on GalaChain!
