Very cool, I really like the video of the gameplay looks awesome! I also checked out your other game Eris Alpha, both have a lot of potential.

I uploaded a new video preview:



In this video, I show off our new plasma rifle-ish weapon. As well as our new boss, a whale named Dobee.

I also show elevators, which are used to advance to the next floor once you’ve killed the boss.

We’re shooting to release a public beta very soon. Hopefully in a week or so. Keep an eye out for it!





I also implemented a GUI and a cool death screen, but I forgot to show them in the video. Whoops!

Our new music guy made an awesome song for the beta trailer, and he recommended a friend of his who does video production who offered to edit the trailer for free!

People have started posting screenshots and let's plays, and I'm getting super addicted to watching people play the game.

My 2 favorite LPs thus far:







In development news, we started a new boss, and we made a new title screen.

Voxel-based roguelike reeled me in, the screenshots look awesome.
When I can afford it, I think I might pick this up

Over the past few days we did a major overhaul of the environment textures.

Then I implemented 4 new items. As well as 2 new enemies, The Boom Brothers and Gaangus.
Finally, I implemented a new gun, the grenade launcher.

I also did a bunch of little stuff like fixing bugs, gamepad support, ect.

We're hoping to release a patch in a few days.
