New Ability: DASH
To help with mobility and speed, Emira can now DASH. Great for when you've mistimed a long jump, or ran into a wall by mistake!

We also think Adele and Boti made it look really cool too!

Ever wonder where the Guards come from? Well wonder no more! Throughout the levels Emira will encounter Guard Charging Pods. If one activates, your best bet is to run away or try to jump over its head.

Wouldn't be Wednesday without a pic of SMOL. This time he's joined the whole Cosmic Coda team for a bit of a team photo! This team has worked together and grown so much throughout our time at Abertay and DARE. We're very lucky to have these opportunities.

SMOL wants to help with the final polish this week, so he's joined our art team. It looks like he wants to give himself some shiny upgrades and take Emira's place as the hero!

comment below if you think he should be the main character!

Producer Mark accidentally trapped Emira inside a collider right at the start of the level. I don't think she liked being in there!

Repost this and share your funniest bug on the project your working on!

Whether you're into atmospheric ambient tunes or high energy earworms, you'll likely find something you like in this OST! It's currently only available on SoundCloud (for free!) but it will be streamable on all major (and some not major) streaming platforms soon! I will post when that happens! :)

Cleaner bot SM-01 affectionately called Smol-bot, wants to help us out so today he's on Audio with Rebecca. Hitting the midi controller he's gonna give us some awesome jams for the game!

Week 2 of #DARE2025 hot housing begins. Last week we effectively were breaking the game to make it better. This week we hope that the return on that investment is something really exciting to show you. Stay tuned for updates as we progress!
