Release notes here. Took an extra day compared to what I was planning for this release, but there’s a ton in here! First of all, there are a ton of balance improvements that Puffin has put together in order to diversify what gets a damage bonus against what. There’s a lot of tuning in that area…
Chris here! This is just a video looking at a variety of the ships in AI War 2, or at least the graphics for them. These are in the version 0.124, which will come out early next week. It’s presently late alpha for the game (in the pre-Early-Access sense), and so these are coming up…
Chris here! Lots to share today. Obligatory: 106 of you still have yet to send in your surveys, so please do that soon if you have a chance. Thanks! Marquee Video In this one, recorded just moments ago, I walk you through some things that are happening in the game right now: Highlights: Lots of…
Chris here! Okay, so this is a whole lot of random stuff from the last month, and these are some of our internal videos that I did a quick vetting of and figured were safe to release for those people who might be interested in them. These are all unlisted on our youtube channel, to…
Wow what a whirlwind of a few days! If I haven’t responded to your message yet, I really apologize and will do so as soon as possible. I’m caught up on the kickstarter messages and comments themselves, but I’m behind on Steam and the Arcen forums. Funding Is Starting Strong! Our kickstarter for AI War…
Lots of stuff has been happening on the AI War II forums in general, and a lot of news in the dev diary section in particular. Once the kickstarter for the game launches — later this week — we’ll be sharing more through our blog and social media. It’s been an intensive process so far…
Here’s a new look at whats under development art-wise for AI War II. I’m been tasked to create a high-definition model of the player base ship. With 3D modeling, it’s not usually so simple as to jump into the program and get to work. Lot of times you need a thought process to kick it…
What!? Shouldn’t this post be about procedural generation or new robots? 😉 That stuff is coming, don’t worry. As you can see in the release notes, a lot of work has been done on that. But in the meantime I did want to do a release with a few other things in it. Volumetric Lighting…
Oi, Raptor! Been four business days since we saw you — what’s new? The short list of new stuff shown in this video: Improved post-processing visual effects. Improved raptor skin. Completely re-rigged and freshly animated raptor. A couple of glitches there, though, most notably in the walk animation. Completely new sound system based on SECTR…
Apologies again for my slowness regarding Stars Beyond Reach updates at the moment. I’ve been active in the forums since this project answering questions here and there if you haven’t been there. But carving out the time for organized posts sometimes is a bit tricky. The last week or so has seen Keith working like crazy on implementing…
