I've been putting together some more character art to flesh out the story and later parts of the game, where the three main factions vie to accomplish their victory conditions by endgame. You choose your allegiance to one via mission conditions you fulfill during the first part of the game. Once you break free, you begin to voluntarily work to aid a faction in its goals.
To show what I've been up to, I included an image of some of the art I've done and what npcs or enemy types are slated to be included in the first part of the mid-game. There are of course, even more advanced enemy types and other characters planned, but the point is we have enough to make a start of it.
Thank you for your patience. There is a lot to get done to have a playable mid-game section ready for you to try out, but I plan to have some rudiments of it available within a week.
