The previous week was an eventful one. As mentioned in the previous situation report mentioned, we received the UI files. We had some compatibility issues which prevented us from installing them for a few days, but we used that downtime to polish the gameplay a bit more.
The good news is, the files are actually being installed, and the game now has a functional interface. You can now start the game via the main menu, or hit ESC at any time during gameplay to see it in all of its glory. And do you know what that means?
That means that I can show you the new interface: http://i.imgur.com/fCOLjM2.jpg
And yes, unlike V1, those key binds actually DO work. Pretty cool right? It looks much better in motion, but you’re going to need to wait to play the game to see that.
The only things remaining before the big update is finishing up the interface functionality, and the HUD (and related ingame menus, like the shop interface)
Unless we’re collectively eaten by kittens bees, the release should be sometime inside of this month. Once we get the HUD files, I’ll be able to make a more concrete estimate as to when exactly the update is coming.
