It's time for the monthly full game development update!
We’ve been very hard at work on the third area of the full game.
Working on scenes, rooms, environments and of course… Bacteria!
(The sneak peek below is a little edited to avoid spoilers.)
One nice thing is that we’re developing this area much faster than we did Sandlyn.
That's... also because Sandlyn City took a lot of time to make...
Though I think that time really helped make it something special.
As always, we’re focusing a lot on the expressive animations for the characters, and just making sure the third area feels high quality overall.
We’re doing a lot of interesting things with this area, so I’m really looking forward to showing it to you all. Especially its visuals.
About Development as we start 2026
My personal hope is to be done with over half of the third area’s development by the next development update in March, and maybe even finish it by the update after that in May.
That might be wishful thinking, but let’s see if things end up taking longer or not!
You can be sure we’ll be working as hard as possible on making it very cool.
Thankfully with each passing day, Astromeda gets closer to release!
You'll then finally be able to know why Nano did this:
Some more sneak peeks!
"The signal is AWFUL here."

Moth bacteria is happy
Bacteria life.
While the game is definitely taking more time to make than originally expected, I REALLY think it's going to be worth it!
Thank you for supporting Astromeda, and I will see you on the next development update! ❤️

Hey everyone!
It's time for the monthly full game update!
I would like to start off by saying that an update to the Astromeda Demo is coming for the holidays with a couple of pretty big changes & improvements!
NOW!...
Progress has been great since the last update, and we're now well into the third area of the game.
Every day we're working on room after room...
In the last few devlogs, I talked about how we’d been focused on major story scenes that took a lot of time to make.
We've now finished that part and are currently working on new rooms with exploration!
Some more sneak peeks!
Just sweeping the entrance...
Quickly!
Little sneak peek of an enemy attack!
Aftermath.
As always, I’m keeping things discreet so I don’t accidentally spoil anything big, but I still want to give you a little taste of the progress!
Q&A
If you didn’t know, we host a Q&A every two months in the game’s Discord server!
Here are a few questions from the most recent Q&A! (Note: Some questions reference the demo, so they’ll make more sense if you’ve played it.)
Q: I’m curious what Per was doing while he waited by the elevator while we were taking our time going through the Basement?
A:
Q: Is it possible Maria was transmitting a secret message while she was humming?
Oce’s A (The game's artist): Aw, it seems you made her self conscious... how long have you been overhearing her?
Q: Real talk, I’m curious how Per with a beard would look like. I mean, if he had a beard his team would’ve never lost to the Queen.
A:
Anyways, we're making more and more progress as time as goes on!
While the game is definitely taking more time to make than originally expected, I REALLY think it's going to be worth it!

Thank you for supporting Astromeda, and I will see you on the next development update! ❤️

It's time for the monthly full game update!
Progress has been blooming since the last update, with a new area for the game in its early planning stages, along with some more work on Sandlyn.
One of the coolest things about Astromeda is how every character you meet feels unique, each with their own personality and way of interacting with the world.
I won't show any actual interactions to save it for you in the full game.
Upgrade Shard Balancing
Something you’ve brought up during development is how the game will be balanced around item upgrades.
I am here to reassure you that a lot of thought is going into the values picked for each upgrade shard. When the game gets closer to release, we'll be running plenty of playtests to ensure it's balanced well.
Aaand, I'll be testing the numbers out myself thousands of times.
The point of the upgrade shards is to let you create different playstyles by upgrading your favorite items to the max.
The fun thing about upgrade shards is that they also upgrade an item's unique ability instead of only plain stats. This means that if you like a certain item more than others, you'll be able to lean more into its playstyle using the shards!
However, their purpose isn't making the battles easy, but just more fun and varied.
The combat in the game is easily one of the parts we spend the most time on, making sure each attack is fair but has a difficulty that fits the current enemy and stage of the game.
I will point out that it's also of big importance to me not to make the game too easy.
Playtesting a bunch will help get the most well balanced results we can!
And now...
Some more sneak peeks!
(All art and sneak peeks shown are a work in progress and are subject to change.)
This is a- ah that'll be spoilers...
Same here hehe
Pick up the axe. Or no beans.
Speaking about BEANS...
We have normal beans.
We have mice beans.
And now we have... Maria beans? what-
Back to development! Gonna really try to make a lot of progress till the next dev update.
So, once more...
While the game is definitely taking more time to make than originally expected, I REALLY think it's going to be worth it!

Hey everyone!
It's time for the monthly full game update!
We made great progress as usual and worked on a variety of things across the game like rooms, characters, combat-related stuff, and more!
Now, like with any game, sometimes development goes smooth...
And sometimes you spend four hours staring at a chair wondering, "Does this chair spark joy?"
Other times, you create something that slightly breaks the game, and suddenly the menu is fighting the player.
Basically... yeah, some things take longer than others.
It's all part of the process!
But we prevail!
Also if you haven’t already, be sure to check out the previous devlogs for a deeper dive into various parts of development and some sneak peeks!
And now, without further ado...
Some more sneak peeks!
*All art and sneak peeks are a work in progress and are subject to change.*
"But I think otherwise."
An alleyway. Enter if you dare.
Unique battles! The example below uses placeholders to avoid spoilers and is not final.

I've said this many times by now, but I can't wait to show you everything else!

Hey everyone!
It's time for the monthly full game update!
I would like to start off by saying a BIG THANK YOU to everyone who tagged Astromeda on Steam with the "Great Soundtrack" tag! Having this tag appear on the game's page happens only when a lot of players in the community give the game this tag.
I love game soundtracks, so having this tag on Astromeda is so awesome!
NOW!...
Progress has been nice and steady since the last update, with us working on many different parts of the game. Like I said in the previous devlog, I won't mention what area we're working on to not reveal the order of things that happen in the game.
(All art and sneak peeks shown are a work in progress and are subject to change.)
But I can tell you this — with each passing day, Astromeda gets closer to release!
(There are just a lot more days left hehe. I'll talk more about that at the end of this devlog.)
I'd say that the two main things we've spent the most time on recently would be on the major story / major battle scenes, and side stuff like creating unique items/ribbons.
If you didn't get to play the Astromeda demo yet, items and their abilities can be upgraded with the help of a bacteria called Maria.
Items will play a big role in the game. Some have abilities that can impact combat, and make you form your own playstyle.
Your playstyle and choice of items/ribbons to use may also change depending on the fight.
Now, Bacteria may like drinking pizza...
But they may also like...

BREAD.

Or a nice drink!
Going back to the major story scenes.
I'm REALLY happy with what we've been able to make for the major parts of the game so far.
A lot of work and time goes into making these parts special.
I had very limited resources when making the demo, but now that I have a little more, I think you'll see the difference.
Some more sneak peeks!

Even these two are enjoying a refreshing drink!

You need to move, quickly. Buuuuut, would you stop to give it a lil' punch?

Is this... SAND? Or... not?....

Woahhh...
About Development
Like I said a few times now, progress is being made everyday on the game!
But, many parts of the game have expressive animations-- a lot more than the demo, which can take a lot of time to make. (Oce, the game's artist has been working hard on the animations!!)
And, each enemy in the game has its own unique attacks which also require animations and clever programming.
Heavy work on animations & programming has been more prevalent recently, as we've been finishing a major area of the game. We've put a lot of effort into this part, so we can't wait to show it to you!
All of this, however, is making it seem more likely that Astromeda will be finished in 2026 rather than 2025.
We're not even past mid-2025 yet so this may be too early to say, but it's important that I stay fully transparent and mention that now rather than at the end of 2025.
While the game is definitely taking more time to make than originally expected, I REALLY think it's going to be worth it!
Thank you for supporting Astromeda, and I will see you on the next development update! ❤️

Hey everyone!
Spring has arrived... and with it, a fresh update on Astromeda's development! This dev update also includes a Q&A at the end!

Development has been going well, and we're currently focused on completing the final parts of the game's second area: Sandlyn.

We've also been putting a lot of effort into quality, which is why some parts are taking longer than originally expected. But I'm really happy with our progress!

So Sandlyn is nearing completion! (Some optional gameplay elements and scenes are still being worked on.)

Note: Once we begin working on the next area, I won't reveal its name, theme, or how many areas the game will have in general. I think showing all that before the game releases could take out of the experience when you play it.
I will keep showing sneak peeks in the monthly updates of course but I'll make sure what I show doesn't spoil that, which could mean l may not show as many sneak peek images at times.

As promised in January's dev update, here's a sneak peek of a boss attack! (The background is a filler.)

*All art and sneak peeks are a work in progress and are subject to change.*

Like mentioned in previous updates, some enemies in the full game have much more complex attacks that react to your position in combat, rather than scripted attacks.

There's so much more so I CAN'T WAIT to show you everything else when the game is finished!

It's one of those things where you're working on something and you really want to share it with others, haha.

Here are a few more sneak peeks!
"WOOO!"
Such beauty.
. . .
ASTROMEDA Q&A the 3rd edition with your submitted questions! feat. Oce (the game's artist!)
(The 1st and 2nd Q&As occurred in the Astromeda Discord server.)

Q: Are the sneak peeks shown in the devlogs placed in the same order as in the game?
A: No, I usually pick interesting stuff to show that isn’t spoiler heavy from anywhere in the game. I may still show sneak peeks from Sandlyn after moving development to the next area.

Q: What is everybody’s favorite food? (WILL PER MARRY ME IF I ASK???)
A: You’ll have to ask them that yourselves!
Oce adds: ...but studying their preferences could help getting the best of them, so pay attention to hints.

Q: Do you plan to keep the speedrun strats that are in the demo in the full version?
A: If you found a strategy that can be used for making speedrunning better and more enjoyable to those who like to do it--> if it’s very unlikely that a player playing regularly encounters the trick, then it’s totally fine! I’ve seen that some players found a speedrunning strategy where they skip scenes in the demo quicker which requires very fast clicking, timing, and overall knowing what you’re doing. I don’t see a reason to take that out!

Q: I love the idea of alien bacteria, and I enjoyed seeing the characters in the demo. From the sneak peeks it looks like there are a lot of different types of them like a worm and a bird. They look more animated than in the demo which looks sick. Does all of this mean we will get some funny animal/biology references?
A: Oce wanted to answer: Yes, and it will be in the exam.

Q: I NEED THE FULL GAME
A: lmao I love how every Q&A more people submit this than the last. Thank you and we’re working as fast as we can while ensuring quality! <3

Q: Why did you choose GameMaker as your development engine?
A: This is a loaded question! After the game’s released I’ll answer this more in detail, but overall I would say GameMaker to me is just a very very good engine for 2D games! I have over 5 years of experience with the engine, so it’s just an easy pick! Funny enough, Astromeda DOES have 3D looking stuff as you may know, and there’s the outside window scenes that don't work too well with GameMaker. (but I found a workaround!) I’ll talk about all that in the future.

Q: What if I want to be *more* than friends with Per after the demo ends?
A: oh of course, you can be *best friends*! (just be careful about mentioning Stardom near him.)
Oce’s answer: By the time you’re done meeting everyone it’ll be harder to pick a best friend 😳

Q: Are you planning any post-launch content or updates?
A: Even though we're still in the middle of development I already have some ideas for things I'd wanna do post launch but it's still too early to promise anything! I'll keep you updated!

Q: What is the origin of the name Actobacter?
A: I chose that name back when I just started working on Astromeda. There’s a real bacteria called Acetobacter, which clearly shows where I got the idea from! Oce adds: Many industries use Acetobacter to produce food and brews, so maybe Actobacter is good at it... 😋

Q: Hello! Will you appreciate speedrunners playing your game?
A: I appreciate anyone playing Astromeda! And yes I find speedrunning to be very impressive. Play the game however you like!

Q: When will we get a new Astromeda trailer?
A: When the game nears completion!

DEMO SPOILERS AHEAD!
Proceed if you played the demo!

A new update to the demo was released recently that updated the visuals of the outside window scenes!

In this update, the underlying code for these scenes has been completely reworked.
Previously I was quite restricted with what I could do with the outside window stuff due to restrictions of the GameMaker engine, which Astromeda is built on.
But now after properly remaking the code with my new knowledge-- I think things will be quite extraordinary in the full game.
The outside window update is live (Only for windows as of now) in the demo and you can try it out!

As always, Astromeda is being worked on every day with all of our love and passion poured into it! We're really looking forward to seeing you experience the full game once it's ready. (There's still a lot of work left though ;D)

Thank you for supporting Astromeda, and I will see you on the next development update! ❤️

Hey everyone!
Development update time!
I hope you had a great start to 2025!
We progressed nicely with the game as usual! December had a slight slow down in development due to the holidays and new year, but we picked up the pace in the start of January.
Work is now mainly focused on a section of Sandlyn called Sandlyn City!
This section is large, and has a lot of content!

SO MUCH TO BUY!

Beware the Pizza Drink! (Very fun item!)
We also worked on new enemies! Some enemies in the full game have much more complex attacks that react to your position in combat, rather than scripted attacks.
I hope to show you a sneak peek of a boss soon.
For new followers who want to see a non-demo enemy, I showcased some animations of a new wild bacteria back in August's devlog:

STOP.

(Actobacter is sleeping. Please don't wake him up.)
Sandlyn City requires a lot of art to be made, and many scenes to be coded. This section is taking a good bit to make, but I'm excited to make it something truly special!
...
... I think you'll find this very... intriguing.

That's all for today's development update!

I'm happy to say that Sandlyn (the 2nd area) is nearing completion! There's still a bunch of stuff left to do, but we are approaching the final parts. (minus polishing and testing).
This area just has A LOT of content.

These boulders are fun to play with! I wonder what you'll do with them...

What is this place?

What a majestic looking bacteria...
The Astromeda demo also got an update this month which added this new animation for Per!

"Huh?"
A lot of development time was used for planning, coding, animating story scenes, and designing the game's world.
We can't finish off a dev update about Sandlyn without some more SAND---

I don't know what that was...

Hey everyone!
It is that time again!
This month a lot of time and effort went into making a bunch of scenes, as well as creating NPC interactions with multiple animations that really bring them to life.
One of the new scenes created this month was more atmospheric, and I really enjoyed working on it.
I'm very much looking forward to letting you all experience it yourselves!
Sandlyn has some rooms that are larger compared to the Basement and are a bit more exploration centered.
Following that, is the introduction of LADDERS to Sandlyn!
Some time also went into improving and polishing a few enemy attacks in the code.
Last month I showcased some animations of a new wild bacteria enemy, and explained some of the development aspects of enemies in Astromeda. You can check out last month's devlog if you haven't here:
The reception to this new enemy has been very good-- I've gotten many DMs across social media asking me for more, and as someone who is also a gamer (͠≖ ͜ʖ͠≖)-- I understand your desires from the bottom of my heart, so here's one final attack sneak peek of Botanny I'll show! (At least for now)
(All art and sneak peeks are a work in progress and are subject to change.)
*The attack patterns of this wild bacteria are more complex than the basement wild bacteria you're familiar with from the demo, and the attack difficulty is appropriate to this current stage of the game. You can expect the difficulty to increase as the game progresses to keep it balanced.
Botanny has more attacks, but I would like you to experience it yourselves when playing the game.
Now, here are some new sneak peeks!

Memories.

"Where is the captain?!" Nano my beloved, calm down.

"It's emitting something..."
We can't finish off a monthly devlog about Sandlyn without some more SAND!!!

This month, a lot of work went into making multiple wild bacteria battles and adding new exploration elements to Sandlyn! The enemies in battles are a lot more animated than the demo ones and their attacks are more complex.
You can expect to see a lot of Sandlyn for a while since it's quite a large area in the game. (More areas other than Sandlyn will also be in the game of course, but Sandlyn is certainly demanding quite a lot of work!)
Showing you all the new wild bacteria will be spoilers, but I'll try to show as much as I can.
Without further ado, here are this month's sneak peeks! (As usual, keeping spoilers at a minimum!)

Hey everyone! I've been working very hard on a big update to the Astromeda Demo! The update includes many changes and additions thanks to all of the incredible feedback the game received over the past few months!
Note: The following contains spoilers to the Astromeda Demo.
The new update includes:

The dying animation that appears in the running scene at the start or when you get hit by the acid has been adjusted and is 2.5x faster.
In the running scene at the start, if you fall or get hit by the boulders, part of the scene gets skipped so that it wouldn't get annoying if you die multiple times.
A brand new animation now appears at the end of the running scene, when you fall and Per catches you.
You can now properly close the game through the game's UI! There are 2 ways to do so. You can hold escape, or go to the menu options and press on Quit game.
Per now runs after you in shock if you walk off the bridge before his dialogue starts.
The overall dying part of the running scene is more fluid and quicker.
I wanted to make the first running scene a little more engaging, but since my goal is to make the demo, AKA the first area of the game rather simple so that everyone at all skill levels could learn the basics-- In order of making it a little more engaging I made the big boulders that fall behind you start falling faster and faster, so if you flinch or stop moving you'll likely not make it. It makes the scene a little more intense but keeps in mind that it's the second-ever scene of the entire game, haha.
New sound effects were added.
A secret character got a new sprite.
A few new name easter eggs were added.
If you perform an attack but deal 0 damage (by not pressing anything), it will show "Miss" instead of "0"!
A new talkable scientist was added to the Basement labs. The scientist helps explain the reason for the toxic waste being there.
Forgi's lightning attack animation has received a few new frames. The lightning has new frames. The attack was adjusted.
Per's 3D perspective idle animation has been improved! It has double the frames to make it smoother, and Per now blinks.
Per's 3D perspective sprite now has a new addition of the floating cubes he uses in his attacks, to further make his visual stand out and fit his character.
You no longer get more defense when leveling up as it proved to make enemies too weak, but now it is balanced. HP does increase as usual. Defense will be increased by obtaining armor items. (After testing this myself, this synergizes very well with the full game's items and enemy damage.)
In the first battle against Actobacter, the battle background's bridge ended abruptly. It doesn't anymore.
Maria has special dialogue if you ask for fortune telling and you actually have 45 Electros.
The Residential Area has been optimized and should be less laggy for lower-end PCs. (The residential area was laggy for some players, so I made sure to optimize it more. Please let me know if the lag is gone for you if you experienced it.)
When you enter the Dark Switches room the music now stops and a sound plays to add to the scene.
Actobacter's shield in his final battle was reduced. Thus, the fight is a little shorter. Some of his dialogue also moved around slightly to ensure non of his existing dialogue is overlooked.
You now have a chance of escaping wild bacteria battles without having to take out the shield. (Beforehand you had to take out the shield of every Bacteria enemy you encounter.)
When Actobacter gets revealed, a scary musical cue plays.
In the final Per shuttle scene, he had a few incorrect facial expressions which are now fixed.
New expressions were made for the Per pre-battle scene.
New expressions were made for the Per post-battle scene.
Per's cube throw animation in battle was remade.
Per's teleport animation in battle was remade.
The electricity explosion visual effect from Per's cube was polished.
The purple rain attack's visual effect was polished.
Per has new animations for each attack.
Okay pretty much everything in the boss has new animations and Per has new expressions for everything!
Per has new animated expressions in the hallway/small talk scene.
The 3D player in the menu was updated!
The 2 queen scenes at the start and end were slightly remade. The coding behind the scenes is now improved and the components of it communicate better!
Other minor changes.
A few bug fixes.

Hey everyone! I've made some pretty big changes and improvements to the Astromeda Demo!
Including:

A brand new attack was added to Actobacter's Boss battle!
Actobacter's first attack was shortened and adjusted as it was too long and slow.
Actobacter's end of battle dialogue was changed with additional information about the Queen's story added to it to set up the lore for the rest of the game more appropriately.
Various dialogue changes in a few cutscenes.
The Queen's hand design and color were changed. (More changes to it will come in the future.)
The DASH tutorial which shows you how to dash was slightly changed to be more clear.
Here's are sneak peeks from the FULL GAME!
Small, resilient plants burst forth from the sandy ground, their leaves painted in vivid greens and blues. These plants add a touch of life to the serene environment, swaying gently in the soft breeze.
It's a cactus. Why is it here? What's the meaning behind it? What's the purpose of its existence? And what about the background behind the cactus?
The designs of the next few main characters are also fully done! Showing you how they look would be wayy too much of a spoiler, but here's a very tiny bit of one of them! Haha!
Thank you for supporting Astromeda, and I hope to see you in the next update! ❤️

Hey everyone! Thank you so much for playing the Astromeda Demo! I figured I'd start using the Steam event option more now as it's useful for communicating with you all!
Here's a list of the recent bug fixes and changes to the Astromeda Demo that you might be interested to know about!

The hidden room door was visually upgraded.
The hidden room entry bug was fixed.
You can Pet a bacteria and get a new cute interaction of saving its life.
A bug where an enemy might freeze in battle was fixed.
When obtaining the DASH, there are new instructions that pop up on screen that explain how to use the dash properly.
Remake of the elevator pod - with a combo system that gives you more speed! (It's pretty fun!)
New sound effects for the elevator pod.
New sound effects for the magnet puzzle switches.
In the second magnet puzzle room, Actobacter no longer disappears abruptly after completing the puzzle.
When Per is holding you after you fall, the time until he picks you up is reduced.
There was a split-second delay when opening the menu. The delay is now removed.
Thank you for all the positive feedback on the Demo. I really appreciate it! I'm working hard on the full game right now, but I'm still fixing and adding stuff to the demo every day.
Thank you for supporting Astromeda, and I'll see you in the next update! ❤️
