Welcome to this weeks [b]Skywatch[/b] development diary! This week, we want to show off some of the hand tools that you'll be using in [b]Lost Skies[/b]. Unlike in [i]Worlds Adrift[/i], where you had a single 'multi-tool' that you used to harvest all the resources you needed, in Lost Skies we want each tool to have its own unique identity and visual effects. [h1][b]Grapple[/b][/h1] First up, let's take a look at the grapple. The grapple is one of the first tools you'll get access to and offers unparalleled freedom whilst exploring islands. Below is a look at how our grapple tool has progressed, from early concepts through to the current grapple model.
