Neyyah at Mandjar Arts Awards 2019
Hello Neyyah adventurers, far and wide! I usually post Steam updates on Sundays, but thought I'd through in this extra one - feeling reminiscent of Neyyah's journey thus far after seeing these 2019 photos pop up on my computer ...
Myself with a printed screen from Neyyah - The Spore Docks / 2019 - in the studio where Neyyah was born
It was a very cool moment seeing some art from my game, printed out and hoisted up at a local art gallery, when I was living in Mandurah, Western Australia. It was a very different time, and Neyyah was still revelling in its infancy, compared to where it stands now and how far along it has come along. But it's very important to appreciate this journey!

You can see this scene in action in my 2019 playthrough of the Spore Docks test build:

Part of this scene featured in the recent announcement trailer for Neyyah through Microprose - the cool portal scene at the end, when the portal explodes and shows NEYYAH.
The Spore Docks will be having a make over sometime in the next couple or so months. This is due to how the game evolved and the asethetic changes and evolutions made since the time I created this particular set. However, it still stood up well as a lovely piece to be presented at the Mandjar Arts Awards gallery!
Thanks to my wonderful wife and family in Australia, and the Mandurah community for supporting Neyyah!
