Hey guys, so Bart went to GDC a few weeks ago, and so we compiled a small video to show our progress since last year on the game.
Check it out!

Over the past few weeks we’ve been working on shadows and lighting to work alongside our new village.
We’ve also worked on some concept biomes and other fun stuff,  so here’s some images on what we have so far! 🙂

The fairy biome could possibly have little light orbs floating around, we have a few other ideas we want to try and this is only the start of it all 🙂
Thanks for reading,

Hey all!

Today I started working on races.
Throughout the Staxel universe you will find different races ranging from elves to fairies and (maybe) even golems.

Races will have different purposes, a big part would be trading and selling or learning new craftable items.
There will be race specific items you would only be able to get this way 🙂

Here’s a little sneakpeek of the elf race and the awesome headpieces you could get by befriending them.

Mind this is only a small sneak peek of what’s to come, there’s still plenty more on my to do list.

Hey all!
It’s been a while since my last update, sorry about that.

I’ve been working on a variety of things, some of them interesting, some boring and a lot of them a secret ;D

But! I wanted to update you all on some of the new character hairstyles, because I’m quite proud of them 🙂
I’ll be posting more about character customisation soon, I’ll leave you with a sneak peek though!

So if you caught my stream this week you’ll know I’ve spent most of the past few days working on tree designs.
I decided to hand pick my favourites and showcase them here in all splendour for all to see.

The crazy shapes and curves were inspired by bonsai trees (If you image search that you’ll see what I mean)
I’d really like to continue on this path making even more unique designs to make the Staxel world look really beautiful. (That is my job after all)

 

This is a small update as, well, all I can really say is ‘Check out these awesome trees!’

So we’ve started work on some aspects of the game, the skybox for one.

I personally love the addition of the skybox, it adds so much atmosphere!
I’ve been playing around with colours and seeing how we could get the best possible ambiance for the staxel world.
I mocked up a little sunrise to show you all, I’m quite pleased with the colours 🙂

This is another piece of concept art done around the idea of the divot being pulled from the ground.
