We are back with our March update, firstly we want to thank everyone for the recent spike in growth, always amazing to see those wishlists constantly climbing as always please share it around, join our discord and follow us on Bluesky to be kept up to date with Nullstar news especially with upcoming events!
TGX and Other Events
Over the past week we participated in TGX (The Game Expo) up in Melbourne as well as some other smaller events with local game developers. We caught up with some friends at the new Massive Monster office (Cult of the Lamb devs) as well as had our resident musical maestro, Alec, showcase the game at GDC in San Francisco. It has been a great experience getting the game out there amongst other devs and showing why we think Nullstar is something special!
Art Updates
For a long time players have noticed an option on the menu called decryption and asked what that is. Well whilst we aren’t ready to fully reveal how it works yet we can share some art by the very talented Cassandra Lee (who previously worked with on Broken Roads). Cass joins the team to help with our in-game lore and is working closely with Anniemay to create the world of Nullstar.
Gameplay Tweaks
Following some recent local playtests at Optimal Gaming and more recently TGX we are looking at making some changes to level order, difficulty and some tweaks on mechanics. Nothing that will delay the game but some important changes that we hope will make for easier onboarding and allow players to chase those fast times.
Planned Conventions
We are happy to confirm that we will be attending AVCon 2025 in Adelaide (July 5 – 6) and Pixel Expo: IV in Perth (September 13 - 14). We will have the TGX demo with maybe some of the above gameplay tweaks but overall if you are interested in getting your hands on the game and are in those areas come say hi!
Social Media Changes
This is a quick update, we have moved all information about the game away from Twitter/X and are now exclusively on Bluesky. If you have an account and want information please click here and follow: here
