changedThe Progress Report:Day/Night and Weather We've spent more time tying the game's real-time day/night and weather conditions into more meaningful gameplay opportunities. Weather and moon cycles are tracked in the game's menu which you can look at any time during gameplay. NPCs and creatures in the overworld react to weather, altering their schedule, and in most monsters' case, affecting their spawn rate. The weather UI, the icons (from leftmost to rightmost) indicate the weather, the time of day, and moon cycle. Your loyal party members are also affected by the weather. Each party member has a "God Sign" which is influenced by the weather! These unique buffs will give them specific edge in a fight, so plan accordingly to maximize your party!
changedThe Progress Report:The in-game Glossary This one's still pretty early in development for us, but take a look regardless! It's a long way off, but the glossary brings all of game's data to the forefront for avid studies to look at any time. Most of this data was already cached in the game's resource files, so we're mostly just building an interface to bind it all together for player convenience. The Glossary keeps track of party members, NPCs, enemies, bosses, quests, items, recipes, it does it ALL. We also promise there will be fruitful rewards for players who keep tabs on all of the things they uncover with it.
changedThe Progress Report:Even MORE Visual Overhauls As our artwork continues to improve, we continue to go back, and repave some of our rockier older spritework. This does take a lot of time, but the results are absolutely worth it. There's easily been more than 90-100 frames of animation reworked by this point.

In other news, we love speed running! We're big speed run enthusiasts, so we've decided to attend the European Speedrunning Assembly held in Malmö, Sweden this July. Although we applied our game's demo for a spot to run, we didn't make the cut, sadly. That being said, we will still be attending, watching speedruns, and hopefully still sharing our game with fellow con goers.

And finally, for those interested in surveying the progress of Odyssey, here's a short list of what we've been up to:
