Release notes here! I never expected something like “A Settings Menu” to take a whole week, but here we are. And in retrospect it makes a degree of sense: this is just a huge chunk of engine that we hadn’t written yet. The settings themselves were all there and working, but we had to: 1)…
Release notes here! This is basically completely about the build menu being more usable, and tooltips being more useful and legible. They still need a background to really be fully legible, but we got a lot of the other things with them. The unity ui is still… a learning process, sometimes. This time around, I…
Release notes here! I’m now back from traveling, and so is Keith, so that’s nice to be back to normal on that front. This new build includes a ton of backlog work that Blue and Cinth have done over the last couple of months that I’m only now getting integrated into the game proper —…
Release notes here! Although, frankly for the details on “The Nanocaust,” you need to click through to the forum link where community member BadgerBadger explains his work. This is the first player-created special faction, and it’s something we’re building into the game as an option for anyone to use without having to do a special separate…
Release notes here! They are short and overall not that exciting, unfortunately. That said, if you’re modding the GUI, it’s a pretty titanic shift in terms of what you’ll find in there now. So what’s up? Basically over the last months we’ve learned a lot about what functions we do and do not need in…
Finally past getting all the non-stretch-goal content in (the units are defined and in the game and basically behave as they should, anyway), so now onto actually making things fun The release notes are here. The key quality-of-life improvements, in no particular order, are: – You can now choose to start with the first planet…
Still not time for “beta” status, or Early Access, just yet. If you’re waiting for the smooth gameplay experience, there’s still a bit to go — but that’s now squarely the next thing on Keith’s plate (and the GUI is a big part of that, yes). The release notes are here. New Ships! There are…
New version! Release notes here. They are long, and in parts technical if you’re interested in the innards of our new sound mixing system. If you’d like a quicker look at the results of the sound mixing system, as well as a brief video-based overview of it, then here you go: I had, naturally, hoped to…
New version! Release notes are… here on the forums? More on that a bit later. First up, there’s a new video where I do a bit of show and tell relating mostly to performance and some of the visual things: Regarding the sprite compound-batching thing, I wrote about that in the last release post, and…
Working notes, and a bit of a tutorial of sorts (as well as a request for help) for Keith. Also includes essentially some working notes for Blue, our artist. And there’s some technical tidbits that an avid modder could pick up here, if they’re so inclined.
