Here's the game's new boxart from one of my collaborators! Doesn't Nightmare look all shiny & fierce?
The other characters will be added as their stories are completed.
More importantly, the release date will be revealed *soon*!
Next up
Some new background elements in Chapter 4 (N). The sky's a little less barren now that there are more floating rocks off in the background.
These also use 3D depth for accurate scaling, parallax scrolling, and distance fog.
I've been retouching several things in the game that could use a little more love before release.
Among these is the nanotech system! You now get a flashy popup (with confetti and everything) when you unlock one, and the icons are also resigned.
I updated the character select screen again!
I ditched the blurred overlay background for a stylish color-changing gradient, and added a spotlight to justify the players' shadows.
I also combined player & difficulty onto 1 screen for efficiency.
Happy #WIPWednesday! Are you working on a game? Making some art? Practicing a song? Something else? Tell us in the comments!
Chapter 6 (K) is DONE! Kodon's story is nearly at a close.
A lot of work has gone into the game in since my last post, but we're deep into SPOILER territory, so all you get is a single out-of-context screenshot.
I'm not sorry.
(So close to release! AAAH!)

I got a little creative block working on the lake level, so I skipped ahead for a bit.
This is the Boss Rush arena event! You fight many/all bosses back-to-back here.
I decided to go crazy with 3D effects here, since it happens in a virtual reality room.
Chapter 4 (K) is DONE! And about time too - that's my longest level to date.
With that, Phase 3 (of 3) Milestone 2 (of 4) is now done! The end of this 7+ year project is finally nearing completion, and I can't wait to share it with you all.

Behold, your reward for beating boss rush - this sick-as-heck 3D cutscene I threw together over the weekend!
Yeah, I know the game is mostly 2D, but I really felt like going way over the top with this game mode. I hope it paid off.
