January Update
Hi everyone! Happy New Year!
Hopefully you’ve all kicked off the new year strong. We certainly have 😄We’ve got a lot to cover this month, so let’s just jump right into it!
[h3]Delay[/h3]
Yes, you read that right. We are delaying again, but not by much! We are very excited to announce that we will for sure be launching One Lonely Outpost into Early Access in June of 2023!
We know you all have been waiting for a while but we’re nearly there. Five months will fly by and we’re excited about the progress we’ve been making over the past months that have led us to be able to make this final decision for June. We’re hopeful that the wait will be worth it and we’re definitely looking forward to hearing everyone’s feedback throughout Early Access.
Now who’s ready to see some of the progress we’ve made over the past month:
[h3]Eve Update[/h3]
Eve is our xenoarcheologist that has joined the colony to learn about the beings that may have come before. You may be wondering, “but she’s blue? Isn’t she an alien?” Well she is of Itrii heritage, but she is in fact, just like you and I, a human, just a blue one. 😄
Much like Aaron and Jimbob, the rest of our cast is getting a little bit of a refresh to their character art. This is still very much work in progress for the new HD version.
We’re not only going to be updating the face a little bit, but also fixing her base pose. She has a tendency to hide her face and having a default pose will allow people to better see what is important.
[h3]Duyi Update[/h3]
Duyi has gotten the same art update treatment as our other NPCs. We had originally tried him out with the more realistic art style that we tried with Aaron, but upon hearing the communities feedback, we changed course and we went back to the old art like before and updated from there.
Duyi is our outpost metallurgist and will be there for all of your metal needs. As you can see from his outfit alone, he works in a pretty dangerous place and needs to wear protective equipment. For his pants and reinforced Tabi shoes, we took some inspiration from Japanese construction workers.
[h3]Sydney’s Lander[/h3]
We’ve also been continuing on our journey of finishing up more NPC landers and updating the lighting a bit. This month, we have Sydney’s to show off! Her lander doesn’t have the fancy new lighting implemented just yet, but you can see how far her lander has come from before.
[h3]Discord AMA[/h3]
Our monthly Discord AMA hasn’t happened just yet so you still have time to join the Discord if you haven’t already! This month’s AMA will be happening this Friday (Jan 27th) at 4pm ET / 1pm PT and we will be ready to answer all of the questions you may have about any of the above items or any other questions you may have about the game.
We’re looking forward to seeing what all yall have in store for us 😉
