Hello!!! Welcome to the first Academy Newsletter, where each month we bring you the latest news and updates on your new school, Kraken Academy! 2021 has been a super exciting year so far!! Last month we announced that we’ve partnered up with the awesome people at Fellow Traveller to publish Kraken Academy!!
To celebrate, we answered a few questions on Discord, you can watch the Q&A on YouTube if you missed it:
Development
Earlier this month we finished the Sports & Drama quests and started on the boss fights. Annika has mainly been focused on the animations (sooo many animations! :D) and Joni has been hooking up the different phases and polishing! We want to make sure the bossfight is epic and has a satisfied ending. Here's some of the battle stages we can show you without revealing too much!
We’ve also started on localisation, with German, French and Simplified Chinese (for now), and did some brainstorming for the side quests.
