Starquest Blog Archive

The leadup to StarQuest, summarized.

In early 2013, I develop the prototypes for StarQuest while working for Regal Phoenix MC.

StarQuest 1 is launched, receives great publicity, and immediately demonstrates its severe lack of performance at scale.

In early 2014, the team is very stressed over all of the bugs in the highly scalable StarQuest 2.

In Summer and Fall 2014, SQ reacts to upheavals in the Minecraft community.

Sometime in late 2014 or early 2015, rifts develop in the leadership of StarQuest.

In Early 2015, I make a play for singlehanded control of the company.

Somewhere in 2015, SQ3 is launched, and the Limitless project is created.

In late 2015, I hand off the company to the next generation.

In early 2016, SQ3 is hacked and is unrecoverable. I return to design SQ4.
