Development is once again proceeding full speed ahead. Oh man being away from Cogmind for that trip resulted in way too much pent up dev energy!
It also took a little bit to get back into the swing of things, and as a mini-project to start off with, I implemented the lore reference UI, a completely new feature you can see here filled with junk data to avoid spoilers
Overall it's a pretty neat system that even supports search-by-letter
. I'll talk more about it for the release notes.
Going forward it'll take about a week to add the next new area to the world, and another after that for lots of little additional features, so we're looking at at least two more weeks before Alpha 10. I'd prefer to spend longer on this release, but because it's been a while since Alpha 9, it's whatever I can get done in the time I'm allotting myself!
In related (Alpha 10?) news, I'm thinking of adding a new window to the HUD and posted some information on the forum, so maybe
check that out!
