April Update - Meet the Luminouis One

We could talk about the April weather, but there’s no time! Knowledge awaits!

Meet the Luminous One

It is time for you to finally meet the One who is responsible for all this mess. So, say hello to what some believe is “the thing that will kill us all”, some worship as the “Luminous One”, or - as we just like to call them - BB! Their new design reflects the narrative better and also feels a lot less “physical” than their old humanoid form.

She’s book-smart

We’ve also been working on our helpful grimoire, full of diagrams about how to diagnose and how to use the tools. We still want to add some more human touches to it, as we are certain Eike can’t help but doodle around sometimes, or that Ida doesn’t have a clarifying comment to scribble into the margins. Trying to decipher their joint scientific chaos might be a challenge in and of itself! 😵‍💫

Faster, better etc.

Like every good roguelite, we have upgrades! And a skill tree! Now that we’re pretty set on how combat works, we have finally been able to turn our attention on how you can get better at it. So not only will you get to pick a temporary upgrade at the end of each successful combat, the eldritch essence you gather along the way will let Ida fabricate strange but useful buffs for yourself. Become insane more slowly! Become insane faster!? It’ll make sense, promise.

So ends our April update. As always go and wishlist our game if you haven’t already and follow us on our socials!
