Hi everyone,

The final report for July is in! Lets unpack it all and see what the team has in store for us.

This week, a whole slew of Intro points were addressed, chief amongst them is an epic moment which, for now, we'll simply tease and call it the “Moment of Breaching”. The concept art for it has been green lit.

Additionally, a large number of the new maps for the Introduction of Voidbound have also been rendered. Finalized, they're now ready to be plugged into the code alongside all the new RP events of the daring escape!

Vas' alien crew members finally have some proper threads as their characters enter their finalisation stage. If you missed their profile and backstory, do check out the special article we floated discussing them and other elements of the upcoming patch!

Our writers, freshly returned from their time off, started with small adjustment work done on the start of the Introduction. They told us, and we quote, "We've still got the same Experimentation Scene from the original intro, but we're redoing the art and sharpening up the writing. It is our hope that Caly and Players will have an even bigger thrill than before as the adventure kicks off.". We're indeed thrilled as well and look forward to what new life the writing guild breathes into the prologue!

Finally, the codes! Sadly, our coder is still not completely settled in his new place. Light work has started though with the new events being deployed on the rendered maps. At the very least this gives us a head-start in testing the existing and renovated content for the Intro.

Internal testing for VoidBound’s Mac/Linux compatibility is now partially underway as well with some of the team members testing the game on their personal machines. If it clears viability requirements, this will help open up opportunities for open alpha testing in the future, but that is still a far away reality at this point.

And that, winds this month up for VoidBound. We anticipate a major announcement drifting your way next week, so keep an eye out on this space when it finally drops!

We'll be back next week with another progress report! Till then though, stay safe and as always, stay awesome!

Kind Regards,

Cursed-Atelier Team
