Thats right, things are being shaken up again!

New Battle UI

The image seen above is a mockup of the overhauled UI! Given this game is turning into an Underswap story told utilizing the events of a Dust AU Concept, it is definitely appropriate that a new UI is made!
Oh- speaking of!

The Overall Story + Direction

The story as a whole has been expanding a decent amount since the most recent big devlog like this, and while I don't want to give too much away; you all do know that a prologue will be present! Said Prologue will likely be getting in its own portion in the gameplay trailer whenever that may arrive!
The game's story and direction continues to move in a way I am so proud of, though this wouldn't be without the help of Gahti and Bread Boy/FOM, as they've been giving ideas and feedback to help reign in characterization or improve where it may have been lacking before!
Sans' entire personality in the prologue was concepted with feedback like that!

You'll be seeing sprinkles of lore throughout the prologue and the game as a whole, a lot of the events before the game have been thought up as well, mainly to contextualize how characters act and REACT to you during your playthrough!

The Youtube Channel

The Youtube Channel has laid dormant ever since its first upload: IADSE. That will be changing soon however; as Do Or Die III will be getting a HQ Audio Only upload AS WELL as a video with the visuals above AND a peak into the Judgement Hall cutscene to commemorate 2 years of it being released, so stay tuned for Valentines Day!

Artwork + Closing Thoughts

As always; Stampy is cooking in the art department!

(Ignore the SYD Sprite, i used it to visualize his design a bit)

I wanted to thank you all for being so patient as always, especially during the deadspot that was Q4 2025, irl was kicking my ass (and still kind of is lol)

Here's to the new year! I do genuinely hope to get a gameplay trailer out within the year! So of course, as always, and yet again: Stay tuned and thanks for reading!
