Ship's Log #6

Arches and doorways now open deeper into the ship.

A pixel-art Academy hall: through a stone arch, a library's tall shelves stand behind a carved balustrade. Text: Rooms behind the rooms. — Rooms behind the rooms

This week the ship got deeper. Across Act I, arches, bays and doorways now open onto the rooms behind them: the Library through the Academy's arches, a drill floor behind the Training Grounds' rail, wards and kitchens beyond their doors.

Two demo updates went out: 0.4.3 fixed what you reported, and 0.4.4 pays XP for every quest step and makes fights above your level bite harder.
A nearer layer: things now stand in front of the action in every area.
Walls that wear: grime, dust and scuffs, tile by tile.
A new Grapple Line that catches any surface.

Also in the workshop: faces in the speech bubbles, and something that only comes out at night. More on those next week.

What would you most like to find through the next doorway: a library, a kitchen or a hangar?

A card listing the week: demos 0.4.3 and 0.4.4 out now; rooms behind rooms, a nearer layer, walls that wear, a new Grapple Line, portraits and night creatures in production. — The week's log

The same Training Grounds room before and now: before, a dark wall behind the rail; now, a lit drill floor stretching back behind it. — The Grounds, deeper The same room. Behind the rail, the drill floor now goes on, sixteen metres back.

A small green creature creeping along a dark corridor at night. — Lights out In production: when the ship's night falls, some of its residents get curious. More soon.
