Dev Diary #14 - Concept Art

[p]ARCHIVED BROADCAST | ORPHEUS CHRISTENING CEREMONY | 7C-89/12X394[/p][p]"Creating a warship like \[the Orpheus] is no small feat. It’s taken generations of talent, vision, and sacrifice to bring us here. This isn’t just metal and firepower, it’s the future of deep space. We here at Acantha X believe in a better tomorrow, forged through strength and purpose.[/p][p]The resource, time, and manpower poured into this vessel will undoubtedly tip the balance of this war in Acantha X's favor. The Orpheus will drive those Freorra bastards back to the stone age. Mark my words."[/p][p]— General Xavier Tully; Lead Commander, Acantha 8th Fleet[/p][p][/p]
Concept Art from the Early Days
[p]It’s been nearly five years since Moros Protocol first entered development. Now, with 1.0 on the horizon, we’re taking a moment to look back. From pencil sketches to environmental renders, this is how the visual soul of Moros Protocol was born. This week’s update is a celebration of that creative journey.

Dev Diary #13 - Weapons and Augments #4

Know your enemy! That's a core tenet of being an Orphean. Whether you're fighting Freorra Corpos or alien threats, you must understand them. And what better way than to use their own weapons against them.

[h2]Weapons & Augments #4[/h2]
We've loved all the support you've given us thoroughout our recent playtests, however, there's still plenty of weapons & augments you haven't seen! Let's talk about some of them today.

[h2]WEAPONS[/h2]
[h3]Absolver ⚔️[/h3]

A mechanical chainsaw blade designes specifically for cutting tough flesh and bones. Standard Catharis anti-darkphage weapon.

[h3]Burning Heat🔫[/h3]

Originally created by a cook with a passion for burning things, this makeshift flamethrower is now a classic DIY recipe found in space web, which you can quickly make with things you find in a spaceship kitchen.

[h2]AUGMENTS[/h2]
[h3]Bloody Aid ⬆️[/h3]

The monsters of the Darkphage are snappy and vicious. The likelyhood of getting slashed, bitten and shot are very high. However, this isn't all negative. If you pick up an augment like Bloody Aid, you turn 25% of damage received is fills your healing shot meter every time you get hit.

[h3]Stay Healthy ⬆️[/h3]

Healthy Melee & Healthy Weapons are upgrades for the masters of doding. If you believe you can keep your health at full, then these augments are for you. When at full HP, increase Melee weapon damage by 60% or increase Ranged weapon damage by 50% respectively.

Thanks for reading through! We're very excited to announce that our FINAL Playtest kicks off tomorrow at 4pm BST. Get ready to fight through even more of the Orpheus past the Jocaste fight. See you in the stars đź’«
