Happy Holidays (and December Dev Transmission)!

Hi everyone, the main priority this month was the release of MU4, which you can read about here:

Thanks to everyone who has been playing the game and providing their feedback!

As is usual after releasing a Major Update, we spent some time planning what our next areas of focus will be. We’ve got some cool things in the pipeline that we’re excited to move onto – and we’ll show more as that all starts to take shape.

We’ve also started to properly tackle gamepad support. Since our early access release it’s been functional in combat, but the majority of the UI didn’t work on controller. The initial phase required design work to specify the controls on each menu, as well as PlayStation and Steam Deck button image artwork (we only had Xbox buttons thus far). Now code are working their way through everything and once the menus are done we’re planning on revisiting the implementation of gamepad controls in combat to further improve them.

The work above isn't the sort that generates lots of exciting images for me to post, but it is important nonetheless!

As always, we finish off the Dev Transmission with some cool images from the community. For this month we have Discord-user Busy Bee’s comic, where there were some special guest appearances…

It’s always cool to see stuff like this, so please send anything you have our way and we may feature it in a future Dev Transmission :)

Providing feedback is really important in helping us shape the game. Here’s a bunch of useful links to where you can reach us:

The team will be taking a bit of time off over Christmas, but I’ll continue manning our various community channels in case anyone needs assistance or has questions.

However you spend this time of year, everyone at Fireblade wishes you a great end to 2025!
