I worked some more on the visual identity of Fractured Balance and here is the final result. I decided to go for a multi-layer parallax back and foreground Hollow Knight Style. Wishlist on Steam if you want to play this version: https://store.steampowered.com/app/3376920

I have been running experiments on how Fractured Balance can improve it's feel and look by adding a background and foreground, and this here is the first draft of the experiment

Post-Steam Next Fest log

What’s Coming Next for Fractured Balance?

Ah well. It's been eight months or so since the last upload here, which means you get another spoonful of content. Recently I have done the impossible at last: finished a character design! Two of them, actually. Oh, and I wrote a silly shader. Enjoy.

A while ago, The idea of a tower or automated defence was suggested for Fractured Balance and now. This ghost fella exists. (now he isn't completely finished so he might not initially be in the Demo release, but he will be in the Demo and Full game)
