Hello! Thanks again to everyone following my game. Sorry been a little while since I posted any updates. Been taking a detour to learn some new dynamic lighting techniques. Haven't been able to implement everything yet but was able to add some cool sky radiance effects. Now you can see light pour in from the surface so the sun creates shadows.

Hoping to add shadow casting to all lights in the future but I have to keep working on the core of the game so that may not happen before the EA release.One other cool addition I added is lightning and storms. Now rain has a chance to spawn as a thunderstorm as well. I love how it lights up the environment!

A few other updates include:

New star map with twinkling lights.
Sun and Moon now move horizontally across the sky.
Added some new enemies to the Radioactive and Marble biomes.
Added additional smoothing to light map to eliminate banding.
Fixed some crashes with Controller Input in the Town Menu.

This is all updated in the latest Demo v0.7.1.2. Thanks again for following Craterlands!
