Hey Players,

First of all, thank you all for all the support and all the wishlists. We just hit our record for the biggest number of wishlists we received in the first 6 days since the coming soon page debut.

With so much work on development, my time is very short, but I also want to try to push some devblog entries in here if you would allow me.

So first lets do a short recap. We have a few devblog episodes on YouTube if you want to check them out:

Episode 1: talking about the main ship

Episode 2: talking about how we made the Windows paint art and what effects we do in order to have this nice 3D aspect

Episode 3: talking about some in-game sistems and one hostile creature mechanic

So what do we do now.

We work on the management part of the gameplay.

For example the Research and development interface.

Here is the first WIP mockup of it:

As you can see, we aim to have a solid layer of depth in the gameplay.

Also dont be afraid, this is a rough mockup, after we add some animations, effects, and lights, it will look a lot better.

For visual style, we aim for minimalistic + atmospheric.

My main inspiration was the Batman animated series that used the 90 30 10 rule of colors. I hope you will enjoy it.

If you want live updates and chat with us, we gladly open our Discord community doors for you:
