Hey everyone, exciting news this Forensic Friday! We've welcomed a brilliant composer, Can Erdogan, to our team, and his mind-blowing Main Theme sample for ContainCorp is just a taste of what's to come.

Can, a seasoned composer with a background in video game music, brings an experimental edge that perfectly aligns with our vision. Eager to explore the game's style and narrative, he promises to elevate ContainCorp's musical expression.

See the sample in the blog!

It's Forensic Friday, and we're making strides towards the final stages of game development. This week, we focused on the 3D research tree, featuring colorful and navigable nodes. The research process is straightforward, and we're introducing "Mystery nodes" for added excitement. We've also received a great response from composers interested in the project. We're likely to have a composer on board soon.

Bonus Lore: Do we actually have a lawyer? Find that answer out in the full blog post! (This is bait)

In our latest Forensic Friday, we're excited to share significant updates. We've been working on a Research Screen and revamping our Experiment System. Our hiatus was due to work-life balance issues, prompting us to expand our team with a programmer, Matt, and a dedicated writer, Louis. We're changing our roadmap approach to batches for better communication. Our focus is on team expansion, completing the prototype, and securing funding, with a revised release date between Christmas 2024 and June 2025. Also Crazy News. Tynan Sylvester, Rimworld's creator, noticed our project!

Hey there! It's been quite a month since we dived into our utility AI overhaul. It took four times longer than expected, but it's been worth it. We've wrapped up mod support, and you can now fully integrate mods into the game. We've even made the UI moddable!

We had to pause our roadmap to tackle the AI overhaul, but we're making progress. Hauling and Builders are already done, simplifying our codebase.

Our main menu got a facelift too, with a new design for better readability. We've made changes to our Discord server, gearing up for more marketing efforts, and we're open to community event ideas.

Spread the word about the game, and remember, Mechanical Monday is now Mythology Monday in Discord for lore and world-building discussions.

Thanks for staying tuned to Forensic Friday – more exciting updates from the Containcorp team coming soon! 🎮👾

It's been an incredible journey to reach Forensic Friday 50 – a milestone we never imagined when we first started. We've been through the highs and lows, the rewrites, and the "old UI" (take a shot if you must). This week, we've made major progress with our Utility AI system, filling in the last pieces before we conquer the combat domain. But the real surprise? Mod support – yeah, we jumped the gun, and it was no easy feat, let me tell you. You'd think there'd be clear guidelines, but nope, we had to craft our modding framework from scratch. But now, any aspiring modder can dive into our game's code and create weirdly sexual and violent mods, or completely change the game into a gambling fest. Awesome?

We've also taken a stroll down memory lane, reminiscing about our past Forensic Fridays – oh, how things have evolved! Curious to know more? Click the link below for all the juicy details. Catch you on Monday for the Dwarves case release (join the the Discord Server to view it) – have an awesome weekend!
