Weekly Recap: October W4 (Patreon)

Last week, we've put some finishing touches on the sound display of the hydra and worked on implementing elevator animations! The animations need some further manual tweaks, as they're being a bit wonky, but the new sound indicator works great! We've also made some UI changes to the ACM mode of the Hydra to make it easier to tell what direction your submarine is angled in, but there will probably be further tweaks until the shard fully releases.You can see all these changes (and the animation bloopers) in the video above! However, the video also shows some more tweaks do need to be made. For instance, the camera view is too low in ACM mode and the Hydra's volumetric light cones are too intense while piloting.Some animations also could use some smoothing up, but I'm proud of what we've achieved so far!We've also been working on new concept art that will be posted tomorrow, so keep an eye out for that! 👀We're now on the final stretch to finishing the Hydra submarine for the shard, so hopefully I'll be able to record a video about it soon and release the submarine for you all to play around with and give feedback on!In the meantime, also keep an eye out for a poll in the next few days!Thanks for your continued support and SEA you next week! :)
