Hello friends! It's been a busy time since the last update. Work on Lost Nova is progressing nicely! Just last night I put the finishing touches on some of the ending sequences of the game. I've had the ending planned since the beginning and it's pretty wild to see it finally becoming real. There's still a lot of features to add and polish to do, but it's very exciting to see it all coming together.

It has about as many art assets and NPCs as the first two zones combined. It also has the most scripted events and interactions! It's mostly done now though, allowing me start work on the next, extremely secret zone that will definitely, one hundred percent not be teased at the end of this post.

Need a shortcut through the forest? Wanting a slightly nicer base? How about a bridge??? The Bridge Buddies got you covered. Though, like any young business hungry to make their mark on the world, they typically ask for payment in return.

This meant that I got to set up a whole system to make sure the ending sequences are tailored to that specific playthrough. The good news is it's just about all done! Now all I need to do is playtest the entire game over and over to make sure it all works! [h3]🐝 [b]Bees[/b][/h3] [img]https://i.imgur.com/Ij67MYW.gif[/img] Bees! That's all for now! I gotta get back to work! <3 Jon
