Follow along monthly and get an exclusive look at development progress for the Kung-Fu fantasy releasing in 2025! This time around, we’ll be diving into the second chapter of our epic journey… [h3]The Mountain Pass and Sky Fortress[/h3] This month’s focus was polishing story and game elements for Chapter 2, which explores Raz’s journey into the Northern continent of Speria, an unforgivingly cold and frozen mountainous region. Unlike in Chapter 1 where we were exploring deep underground chambers, now we are ascending high into the sky.

Just as Grim had warned, the way is littered with dangers including Razor Fang, a hunter of Moonken such as Raz, convinced that all Moonken are bound to succumb to darkness.
