We Have a Wiki!
Big news - we now have an official Galactic Glitch Wiki! We're building out a proper knowledge base for all you pilots who want to dive deep into builds, strategies, and game mechanics.
We could really use your help! The wiki is community-driven, and there's a lot of content to fill in. We especially need help with the Enemies section - we don't have in-game images for most of them yet, and documenting all their behaviors and attack patterns would be incredibly valuable for new players.
If you're the kind of person who loves cataloging game info, or you just want to share that killer build you discovered, come check it out and contribute!
Check out the Wik: https://galacticglitch.wiki/
Thank You!
As always, your feedback drives these updates. Keep the bug reports and suggestions coming - we read everything!
If you're enjoying Galactic Glitch, a Steam review really helps us out. Every review helps more players discover the game.
Happy glitching! - Max and the Crunchy Leaf team
