Finally, a timely update. So what's new?

As I mentioned on the last update, we focused our work on the first couple of hours of gameplay.

Naturally that means we worked on the intro video! The result was… kind of meh, to be honest. It felt a little like Star Wars 9: good looking but meaningless and you forgot you ever saw it… understandably we'll create a better version in the future.

keyframe from the intro - at least it was good looking

This doesn't sound like an awesome September so far!

That's actually good to hear, okay.

Thanks imaginary interviewer! The game has obviously undergone many changes and setbacks so playing this build felt like sweet sweet progress (and it was a great morale boost).

And that's pretty much it!

Thank you for still believing in this game. See you soon!
