E:TZP Journals: Summer Report

After a few weeks of break, our studio is finally back with a project update.

After a few weeks of break, our studio is finally back with a project update. Despite this being a classic period of vacation, we've still made progress on EIN. 
Let's take a close look at what has recently been done: 

Programming 

Char Behaviour 

Captain’s & Mukmore's behaviour have been completely finished. Going to show these boys in action very soon, though; our artists first need to give us a go. 

Core Systems 

Currently, just need to wire them up, as well as polish them. All the hard work has already been done. GG. CONGRATS GUYS. 

UI 

Lots of critical UI bugs have been solved. The new UI for our Menu has been designed. 

Test Scene 

A lot has been done for our test scenes. All systems finally communicate properly. It means so much for all our activities. Seriously.

Design 

Player Actions

Designers have changed a critical aspect of player interaction. This is still an unannounced pillar of the project, so nothing else should be posted right now. 

Narrative Design 

As already reported in our previous journal, the storyline has been written down. Focus is primarily on: Dialogue design + Rune design. 

Art 

Visual Effects 

In the making at the moment. Just that. 

Lighting

The lighting of the Forest has been completed, currently working on the lighting of another level. 

Captain

High-poly of Captain is about to be finished. Also, animations of this concept have already been imported. Just need to show this character in action. 

Mukmore & Thalor 

Rigging as well as animations are still in progress. Colouring is almost done. Also, Mukko is soon getting a cool new weapon. 

Audio

No news is good news in this case. 

Marketing 

Social Content

Summer, plus an upcoming change in our communication plan, starting soon as ETZP gets public, stopped us from posting regularly as usual. No worries, our studio is alive. 

New Strategy

As the project goes public, a complete rework of its social profiles is planned. Lots of clips will be hidden in order to prepare for the new content.
 
Okay, sounds like enough for a journal. Do keep following us, possibly, on our Discord server.
