POLL TIME!

Nightmare's story is finished, so it's time for Phase 2 to begin! Before we do so, however - which character do you want to see featured in the next story update?

(See the article below for more details)


== About Kodon ==

Kodon Deinon is a special-ops soldier in the employ of the IOTA Coalition - the same organization that Nightmare deserted two years prior. After a critical mission has gone awry, Kodon became separated from his partner, Operative Delta. Now stranded on Dunest, he is forced to cooperate with the traitor Nightmare and the lawless mercenary Tuhrahkkkii to save the town from destruction.

His heroic ideals and easygoing nature make it easy for him to adapt to the unusual situation, but when certain truths come to light, even Kodon's unusually effective conflict-resolving skills will be put to the test.

In gameplay, Kodon specializes in ranged attacks. His mighty arsenal is backed by generous ammo stores, allowing him to whittle down foes easily at range. His variety of special charged shots ensure no enemy can escape his aim!

== About Tuhrahkkkii ==

Once a proud up-and-coming tribal war chief, now a robotic mercenary without a cause, Tuhrahkkkii is a force to be reckoned with wherever he goes. Inspired by his conflicts with Nightmare during the events of Carnage in Space: Ignition, he has enacted a rebellion of his own against his cruel masters and taken payment in blood.

Now, with no way back to his home planet and his old way of life, he wanders the galaxy aimlessly in search of a worthy challenge for his skills with the blade.

Tuhrahkkkii is a melee-focused juggernaut. His assortment of bladed weapons can deal massive damage, his armor can be upgraded to ignore attacks entirely while leaping into the fray, wiping out one enemy after another.

There's more!

Crimson doesn't know the meaning of overkill! Just how many attacks does he have at his disposal?

I'll give you a hint: More than this.

We haven't even seen his specials in play yet...

BOOM.

This is Crimson's final attack, Entropy Bomb.

This is what happens when Crimson runs out of patience and is done playing with you.

I'd wish you good luck, but I don't think that's going to help.

Wait, there's MORE???

...

Oh yeah, there's more. Once you annoy Crimson enough, he starts busting out the specials. This one, Flechette Storm, is just one of those screen-engulfing special moves you'll have to contend with!

But even that isn't the end...

We're about halfway through #Joltober, and here is some of the great art we've seen so far!

HEEEEEE'S BAAAAAAAAAAAACK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

For those who don't know him, this is Crimson. Nightmare's darker side. The most powerful being in the setting.

If you want to fight him, you're going to have a very, very bad time.

Oodles of options!

Accessibility aids aplenty!

I added some more settings lately to toggle distorted graphics, fine-tune the audio mixing, and other stuff. Hopefully this should make the game accessible to more kinds of players.

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.

Happy #WIPWednesday! Are you working on a game? Making some art? Practicing a song? Something else? Tell us in the comments!

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.
