Repeated intro
Hey everyone. This is where I'll be making regular updates on the progress of this game. It's been three days since launching the game in early access. Lots of people downloaded the demo, hope you all enjoyed it. I'll try and make these blog posts more regular in the future, but as of now it'll be whenever I get around to it.

Sponsor-A-Planet changes
Since launch, I've been working on making the AI more independent. As of this writing, the dev branch (not public) is functional but not optimized. As you can see from the screenshot, several changes have been made. I've added food, water, and a slider to change the position of the sun. There's also some cloud along the horizon, and at night you can see stars. This version will not be made live to the public until I can figure out the optimization.
I'm still learning how to use the Unreal Engine suite. There are quite a lot of tools and systems that I haven't used yet; barely scratching the surface.
All in all, I'm proud of what I've created so far, and I'm very happy to share it with all of you. Stay tuned for more!
