#ElysianEclipse V 0.6.3 is here! This version is available to test for aquatic tier or higher supporters and will become completely free once the next version drops. Patchnotes for all 0.6.x updates: www.elysian-eclipse.com#/wiki/V_0.6_... Supporter Download: ko-fi.com/post/Version...
I had to remove a few editor parts, because the particle system still has some problems. But even without them, V 0.6.3 will contain 17 new parts. Here is the full list:
Howdy. More flower parts have been added to the editor. V 0.6.3 will be ready for release in about a week. #ElysianEclipse #Spore #GameDev #IndieGame
The weather is still awful and I'm really tired, but I managed to add some more plant editor parts: Gel Bubbles and Raindrop Fruits! #ElysianEclipse #Spore #GameDev #IndieGame
The development of #ElysianEclipse has been paused for a while, due to extreme heat. V 0.6.3 will likely be released mid to late July. Blorb has melted and we are trying to transfer him to the bathtub.
It's still pride month, so I made a gay house for the gay Blorb! But most importantly: Flags have been implemented! In the future, you will be able to fully customize your empire's flag with the flag editor. #ElysianEclipse #Spore #GameDev #IndieGame #PrideMonth
The newly added leaf parts and reworked glow fruits can be used to create some really cool flowers. #ElysianEclipse #Spore #GameDev #IndieGame
V 0.6.3 will add over 20 new parts for plants and buildings! Anyway, here is the actual successor to Spore -- Shroom. #ElysianEclipse #Spore #GameDev #IndieGame
New editor parts for Elysian Eclipse? You want it? It's yours, my friend. As long as you have enough rubies. #ElysianEclipse #Spore #GameDev #IndieGame
#ElysianEclipse V 0.6.2 is here! This version is available to test for aquatic tier or higher supporters and will become completely free once the next version drops. Patchnotes for all 0.6.x updates: www.elysian-eclipse.com#/wiki/V_0.6_... Supporter Download: ko-fi.com/post/Version...
Creatures now have procedural blink animations! #ElysianEclipse #Spore #GameDev #IndieGame
I'm working on animated eyelids for creatures, aswell as controls for rolling vehicles. Both are unfinished, so I somehow ended up with a sad Nugget, trapped in a ball. #ElysianEclipse #Spore #GameDev #IndieGame
Blorb ate some strange fruit and is now feeling a little weird. The new intoxication status effects are were once they are did. #ElysianEclipse #Spore #GameDev #IndieGame
It's far from perfect, but the creatures are starting to feel more alive. www.youtube.com/watch?v=tnp7... #ElysianEclipse #Spore #GameDev #IndieGame

I'm working on improving the animation system. It won't be anything too fancy yet, but will include things like breathing, eye movements, and, uh... Look at her go! Well, I'll post a short preview video once everything is working as intended again, lol. #ElysianEclipse #Spore #GameDev #IndieGame
#ElysianEclipse V 0.6.1 is here! This version is available to test for aquatic tier or higher supporters and will become completely free once the next version drops. Patchnotes for all 0.6.x updates: www.elysian-eclipse.com#/wiki/V_0.6_... Supporter Download: ko-fi.com/post/Version...
I added a new system that allows you to add irregularities to some parts that are normally symmetrical, to make them look more natural. You can also control the strength of the noise. #ElysianEclipse #Spore #GameDev #IndieGame
Among other visual improvements, V 0.6.1 will add detailed grass to creature stage. I should problably touch some grass too. #ElysianEclipse #Spore #GameDev #IndieGame
It is time to reveal the ACTUAL winners of the architecture art contest! Well, I said there are going to be at least 3 winners. And since there weren't many entries this time, I've decided, fuck it, everyone wins!!! #ElysianEclipse #ElysianEclipseContest #ArtContest
I'm currently fixing all the bugs caused by the migration and also further polishing the graphics. The shadow quality has been improved and aquatic stage is brighter now. But most important of all: There now is an useless button that makes duck sounds. #ElysianEclipse #Spore #GameDev #IndieGame
It's going to take some time until the actual contest winners get announced. I have some real life work to do and also need a break from all the render pipeline stuff.
It is time to reveal the winners of the Architecture art contest! The third, second, and first places all go to... Wauzmons. Congratulations to the winners and thank you to everyone who participated! #ElysianEclipse #AprilFools
#ElysianEclipse 0.6.0 Comparison: Version 0.6.0 is a huge step forward! While it doesn't contain any new features, it runs on the new render pipeline and brings lots of graphical and technical improvements. The file size has been reduced by 500 MB and it runs about 15% faster in a lot of places.
i built some "concept art" for the #elysianeclipsecontest! just some lowkey medieval/ancient looking buildings with a unified styling in the overhang held up by the pillars at the front, and a hobbit-hole-like mound backside.
Architecture Art Contest It is time for the fifth #ElysianEclipse #ArtContest! Our creatures are becoming more and more civilized and deserve a proper place to live. Now you can help to design a home for them, with the chance of your ideas getting added to the game! #ElysianEclipseContest 🧵
Let's gooo! The render pipeline migration is pretty much done and all of the stages are playable again! I even improved some mechanics like the creation viewer (see screenshot) and the decal system. #ElysianEclipse #Spore #GameDev #IndieGame

The render pipeline migration is progressing. The creature editor is already fully functional again. Some of the colors are different, but it is still looking decent. Has been pretty frustrating so far. #ElysianEclipse
