Progress update!

Work on Nothing Beyond This Point has been ongoing for a while now, but I haven't made any posts in a while! That seems wrong. I should make a post in the form of a progress update! And here we are.

An Area A overview

There's 16 areas planned for NBTP, and of those, 13 are completely done right now! The 14th one is in progress, but it's gonna take a bit longer than most, considering its gimmick is quite... special. Honestly, it's worth playing the game for the 14th area alone.

Things that you can look out for now also include, but are absolutely not limited to:

• A big fancy puzzle!

• Obelisk 2.0, now with less corruption!

• Burnable flags!

• Killer bosses!

• Eyes.

What's with the eyes, anyway? ...It's probably fine.

I'm constantly going back through areas and improving things. More item animations, additional decoration, improved layouts, and so on. The bigger a game is, the longer it takes to make. But worry not, the enemies, bosses, and their musical tracks are of the highest quality. According to me.

The soundtrack will be uploaded to Youtube and get its own 1$ purchase! It'll likely be about 1.5 hours long and I'm sure you'll like most of it.

Marketing Efforts

Speaking about Youtube! Making a game is hard. Making a good game is extremely hard. Marketing a game? Impossible. I'll be a bit transparent about what I'm doing.

I'm on a continuous process to scout out Twitch streamers, Youtubers, and other content creators that may like to play Nothing Beyond This Point. I currently have over 100 emails and several Discords to spread the message, but if you know anyone in particular, let me know.

I'll also be distributing the game via Steam's Curator Connect system - but only once it's content-complete!

Are You Still On Track?

Yes, I am still on track. Early 2026 release will most likely happen. Depending on how soon I'll be done with the base content, I may add some bonus things as well! Things that are on the table include:

• Boss rush

• The Bestiary

• 4 extra bosses, with rewards

• Secret rooms

• Another ending (there's 3 planned so this'll be the 4th)

• Who knows!

If you buy the game at launch, it'll be complete, but I'll always keep fixing things and will likely add post-launch features too. So don't hesitate! Wishlist Nothing Beyond This Point and have a jolly good time venturing through the endless Void.

But seriously, though, what is it with these eyes?
