Land ahoy!

I got some feedback of the caracters looking too "cute" (or goofy was the exact word). There's some intentional goofiness for sure, but maybe the character style clashes too much with conventions of the stealth genre. I did an experimental paintover.

The game got a big new update, adding things like Steam Deck support and AI allies that can be brought on to fight enemies in certain situations.

I've recently done a bunch of landscaping work on the third mission of the game. I tried to get the barren terrain type to look close to the dwarf birch dominated highlands in northern Norway. Music by https://olliojamusic.com

I tried a hood on the character. I don't know what I'll do yet but I'm mostly leaning towards the original look.

Thanks for showing your support y'all!

Physics based hand operated crane that can be used to open gratings. I've been working to get this to work more reliably. Still a bit janky but getting there.

Made a rain cylinder effect (reducing the need for particles), and a tutorial explaining the process in broad terms (Unity, HDRP): https://t.co/XqnHulTzHj
