This past week I have been working hard on getting the second location ([url=https://store.steampowered.com/news/app/2365960/view/3725099346071387641?l=english]Shown in Dev Preview #1[/url]) ready for Beta testing. While I have tested each anomaly one by one as I have implemented them, it's important to check that they still work as intended as implementation of other features has carried on. I have just uploaded the first build with the second location available onto steam for Beta testers to try out. [h2]So what is next?![/h2] I have a few things I want to do before I consider the game ready for early access. [list] [*]First of all, I wanted two maps to be ready for release. We are getting closer to this goal with the implementation of the second location on the latest steam build. Once this has been tested and issues fixed, this will be complete. [*]Second of all, Lighting improvements. In some of the screenshots shared I am not comfortable with the quality of lighting. While this could be worked on, and probably will be worked on after release, I would like to make some improvements first. [*]Thirdly, More anomalies! In the first location we currently have 62 anomalies implemented. In the Second location there are currently 46 anomalies implemented with the goal of making 72 unique anomalies. [*]Forth on the list, I want to thoroughly test the Menus. I feel like there is plenty of room for improvement with functionality and styles of the menus. [*]Last on the list is the story. We are slowly laying out the story for Presence Lookout. This will change throughout the Early Access period, however I would like to implement the foundations of this. I have already implemented the basics of Letters & Notes within the game which will allow the player to collect Letters and Notes hidden throughout the locations, this will allow the player to understand the story more.
