[Coming Soon] New Challenges Await! 3 New Levels are Almost Ready

Hello, Pilots!

I’ve been working hard behind the scenes to expand the universe of The X-Type, and I have some exciting news to share: three brand-new levels are currently in the final stages of development!

I am currently polishing the visuals and fine-tuning the difficulty of these new stages to make sure they feel just right before they hit your library.

I want to hear from YOU!

As I wrap up these three levels, I’m already looking ahead. My current goal is to bring the game to a total of 7 levels, each with its own unique Boss fight and new weapons to master.

Building this game is a passion project for me, but as a solo developer, your input is what keeps me going. I want to know:

  • Are you excited for a full 7-level campaign with dedicated bosses and more arsenal options?

  • Is there anything specific you'd like to see in these upcoming challenges?

Please let me know in the comments below! Your feedback is incredibly important to me and helps shape the future of The X-Type.

In fact, I’m so excited about what’s coming that I wanted to share a sneak peek with you. Here is an early concept sketch I made for one of the new Bosses you'll be facing. It’s still a work in progress, but I think you’ll get an idea of the challenge waiting for you!

Stay tuned for the official update release date very soon.

See you in the cockpit! — Your Solo Dev
