Hello again!

I have opened a Ko-fi to help support development!

Tips of any amount are welcomed, helping with efforts like commissioning art, buying asset packs and plugins, and keeping myself financially stable during development. Plus you get your name in the credits, too.

Modeling for the game continues to be a fun time :3

Today I made a little drone the player can punch into the stratosphere 👊💥

Went outside of my usual comfort zone today by making a model for the big level select portal in Blender!

Full transparency: the Steam page release is waiting on a few things:

1. The Kaia character model, being worked on by an artist friend I commissioned. Animation work with it will be done by me

2. Prettying up levels so they are more appealing when widely shown; grid texture levels aren't lookers

Redid the game's Steam capsules in Clip Studio Paint today to better match the graphic style we've been going for!

Ugh, this looks like a PS1 game. Ew.

I've been hard at work on revamping the UI in the game to go for a Y2K-esque aesthetic, a real early 2000's vibe!

UI/UX isn't my main discipline, but I'm proud of what I've done so far

Just made a ghost system for the game! 'Cause what good is a speedrunning game if you can't race yourself? 👻 🏃‍♀️

It's one big chase to punch nasty old Dark Matter in the face 👊💥

What good is a game about punching things without a very punchable adversary? 👊💥

Currently being prototyped is the game's recurring boss, the Dark Matter Avatar!

Speedrunning is the name of the game in Kaia's Ascent! Use every little ledge you can find to boost off of and carve your own unique path through levels to beat them as fast as possible!

It's like rocket-powered rock climbing! 🚀🧗‍♀️
