[/p][h3]🌍 Levels & Environments[/h3][p]While Planet 2 is on hold for now, we’ve kicked off Planet 1.2![/p][p]This shift has given our environment artists a chance to explore more level design. The new desert biome continues to grow, we’ve added ancient ruins powered by crystals, tying directly into the lore of the Raiders and adding new layers of world-building.[/p][p]
