addedProgress Since Last UpdateWe have paused the coding parts a bit, to work on refining some of the VFX and Menu arts of the game. In the last update, we have talked about adding visual and sound cues while removing the cast bar. This proccess isn't finished yet because some bosses have different backgrounds, some brighter, and some darker. We can't use blend modes wily nily in that case, so we are analyzing the best way to approach that.
changedVoice LinesWe are happy to inform most of the voice acting has been recorded! We have not implemented anything yet as we wait for the last batch of recordings, but it is very likely that the next update will be fully voiced, courtesy of the amazing talents that we have been working with!

Hello Everyone!

A month has passed since our last update. We figured we should give you guys more regular updates even if they don't sound exciting or cool news, since it also reassures you all we are still going strong and the game isn't abandoned.

Progress Since Last Update

We have paused the coding parts a bit, to work on refining some of the VFX and Menu arts of the game. In the last update, we have talked about adding visual and sound cues while removing the cast bar. This proccess isn't finished yet because some bosses have different backgrounds, some brighter, and some darker. We can't use blend modes wily nily in that case, so we are analyzing the best way to approach that.

Costumes News

In the last update we have confirmed 16 costumes in total for Gastova. We'd like to show some of the splash arts as well some of the animations for a few of these costumes! Everything is animated already, which is a joy, and we are only missing a few of the wardrobe menu splash arts, which should be finished within August.

Pirate Costume

Bee Costume

Anubis Costume

Pumpkin Costume

Voice Lines

We are happy to inform most of the voice acting has been recorded! We have not implemented anything yet as we wait for the last batch of recordings, but it is very likely that the next update will be fully voiced, courtesy of the amazing talents that we have been working with!

Final Words

As usual, thank you so much for the infinite patience and goodwill. We will continue to do our best to deliver the update soon, and we hope you enjoy it. Let us know in the comments if you'd like to see anything in particular fixed, since we haven't been able to upload a new build due to new contents being developed. We will put your requests in our bugfixes and suggestions backlog.

Thank you and stay safe and sound, everyone. Until next time!
