Progress Report #220 - July 2026 (Patreon)

Hi everyone,

The new planet continues to come to life as the crew work together behind the scenes. And with our new demo update drawing ever closer, here's what we've accomplished this week:

----🎨----

DDR Winner Character & Weapon ConceptsWork has begun on designing the custom character and weapon concept for our DDR contest winner! The initial sketches are now complete, and we're now going through the rendering phase of the concept.

Expanding Planet JaeeDevelopment of Planet Jaee's tilesets continues with a variety of new environmental assets, including:

Large cargo crates Stray cables Medical podsTables and furnitureLarge industrial tubesComputers and hologramsHanging cables

Caly's New ExpressionA new sarcastic standing variant for Caly is now in the works, giving her existing suit artwork a fresh expression for future dialogue moments.

----✍️----

Approaching the Final AreaWriting for the Jaee Dungeon is nearing its final stretch, with the writer now brainstorming the last area of the dungeon.

Bringing Every Room to LifeEach room continues to be filled with story events, interactions, sprite movement, environmental details, and of-course loot to ensure exploration is rewarding beyond simply surviving the dangers within.

----🖥️----

Enhanced Enemy SkillsNew skills to existing enemies have been added to make combat encounters more challenging and less predictable. The idea is to encourage players to adapt their tactics and experiment with a variety of strategies, rather than relying on a one trick pony approach.

Elemental WeaknessesFret not though, we've buffed Caly too! The majority of enemies now feature elemental weaknesses, giving players the tools they need to tackle these newly evolved foes.

Preparing for ReleaseBehind the scenes, we're continuing to prepare the main build for release as we move closer to the next major update.

-----------

Thank you for tuning in!

We hope this week's update was to your liking, and we'll be back soon with more in the coming few days.

Take care and see you next time, VoidSeekers!
