Evening all!

Apologies for the lack of update yesterday! The team’s really been kicking the pace up a notch with sweeping changes across the board. I’ve been constantly sidetracked from the Glitch mission to do a bunch of configuration work, fixing a handful of UI elements, updating objects and adding a few new sounds to boot. That said, the mission is pretty thoroughly mapped out in my concepts now, so I have begun building and been chipping away at it whenever I’ve not been on some other task. The case being that this is a Glitch mission, it of course involves a castle.

I’m trying to establish a greater sense of scale than the generated glitch castle dungeons, so expect it to be quite open. It’s a bit bare since it’s still in early stages, but hopefully this peek at the castle gardens will give you some sense of what I’m going for. What exactly will be happening at this castle? I’ll leave you to speculate!

In case you missed it, Tiyuri posted over on our new Chucklefish blog earlier today. If you’ve had concerns about the longevity of Starbound lately, I suggest giving it a read. We’re not giving up this project of passion any time soon, and we’re gunning to get the next stable update to you as soon as we can. Thank you everyone for your continuous support and patience.

Until next time!

Howdy folks!

I’ve spent the past couple of days getting the tiered novakid weapons into the game, both functioning and craftable. Some of the guns are still a little on the big side, so they’ll likely undergo adjustments, but it’s nice to have something for the novakids to use besides that rusty old revolver.

Beyond that, I’ve been planning the structure for the Glitch mission, which I’m pumped to start working on. It’ll likely be very script-heavy so it’s one that may have some roadblocks to overcome before I’ll be able to finish it. I can at least start building the environment in the meantime.

That’s it from me, have a good one!

Hello earth!

That’s so exciting, it’s the first time I make a “daily update”! I take this opportunity to introduce myself : I’m Neco (or Necotho), I recently joined the Starbound team as an artist. End of the introduction, let’s get serious! I have finally finished making the graphics for all of the the tiers of the Novakid’s Space-Train-Ship, and I spent a long time to implement them in the game.

I really looking forward to seeing how you will fill your Space-Train!
