Happy holidays!
I hope you've all had a good 2024. It's crazy to think that You Can Save Everyone released at the beginning of the year, and now Kill The Dream is well into development.
Since releasing the demo, I've been hard at work on getting Kill The Dream steadily closer to completion. While there is still a long way to go, I feel more confident in giving a release window now.
Kill The Dream is aiming for a Summer 2025 release.
That is as specific of a date as I will give for now.
As development has been going well, I have some updates I can give.
To start with, the combat system has been updated. Now, not only is there directional attacking but also directional blocking! You can block up, down, left, and right to deflect enemy attacks. Some enemies will only be vulnerable upon deflecting an attack.
Lots of foundational work has been done too, improving things like AI pathfinding, system performance, and other various changes to the general stability and feel of the game.
Finally, here's a peek at one of the upcoming environments. You've seen the outskirts of town, but how do things look deeper within?
That's all for now. Wishing you all a good 2025!
