changedThe original plan was to show the improvements going into the major update while working toward a lot of code refactoring and cleanup. The plan was originally to show off the major change that was going to occur near the end of the month but in reality/personally I really want 7.3.5 to come out as there are a lot of things that I need in order to unblock me on several mechanics and overall feel of the game. This is a little ahead of when I wanted to announce it but I want to avoid just working in the background without any verbal communication while things are hammered out so instead I think actions/visuals at times speak louder than words. (The test ship size isn't final or indicative of a real ship this is just testing the full functionality) For anyone that may be confused the game's main gameplay view is being changed to full isometric view. The current status of the update is all walls and objects have been blocked out and proportioned properly. The characters are still in progress but the art isn't final so for now things may appear more blocky than normal. Hoping to clean this all up before it gets into your hands. The main reason for this change is there have been a lot of things that I want to do with the game that sadly with the current view just didn't allow for in a clean way. It felt like things were being tacked on or had to be worked around in unoptimal/clumsy ways which I didn't enjoy having to compromise over. Now of course anyone who has purchased the game or bought it now will get this free update. I also plan on leaving the old version up for anyone who still wants to play that style.
