🔥 Dev Update — Roast Round Two: We've Applied Your Feedback! 🔥
Hey everyone!
A few days ago, we shared an early clip of our Metroidvania project and asked for honest feedback over on Reddit. The community delivered — and in true Metroidvania fashion, we went back, explored the weak points, and unlocked some upgrades.
Today, we’re excited to show you a new short gameplay clip that reflects many of the improvements you asked for. Animations, lighting, visual clarity — we tackled it all (well, as much as possible for this round!).

🔍 What's New in This Clip?
🕹 Better Lighting — We brightened things up where needed while keeping the mood intact.
🧍♂️ Clearer Interactables — Breakable chests and key objects now have subtle highlight layers.
💥 Improved Effects — Impact feedback is starting to take shape with particles and subtle shake.
🎨 Style Pass — Still a WIP, but we’re starting to hone in on a more cohesive visual identity.
🧭 Community-Led Direction — All thanks to your honest comments and roasts 😅🔥
🗨 Some Highlights from the Feedback:
“Animations are bricked up like an incel in a room with Sydney Sweeney.” — @BeardiusMaximus7 (the roast king)
“Lighting improvements look great... Visual style is a bit mixed up — feels medieval and sci-fi at once.” — Reddit feedback
“Much clearer. Great job. Cohesive, yes — just not screenshot-worthy yet, but that’s fine.” — @bluestjordan
👀 What’s Next?
We're heading into art-focused Discord servers to dive deeper into visual design and animation. There's still a long road ahead — but every bit of feedback is helping us shape this into something special.
If you’ve got thoughts on how it feels in motion or what stands out (good or bad), drop them below! Or even better — roast away.
Thank you for following our dev journey. Your support and feedback mean the world. ❤️
