All I've done recently is lots of code refinement. Which is good, I just have nothing new to show. So, here a funny clip of the game bugging out.

Concept art of the Gas Giant. Yep, that's his name, if you wondered.
Fun fact - he's the only enemy that can't harm the player so far, because he doesn't have a contact damage or any direct attacks.

Concept art of the Crescent Moon.
Initially, he was supposed to be completely stationary like in the prototype from 2018. Arena was also slightly different.

Recently I found out that some random site reuploaded my game, which you can play right there. I have nothing to do with it. How fun!
The fact that the game was posted on web doesn't mean you can upload it anywhere. There's a ton of random itch io games on this site and it's equally as yucky.

Fun fact: I couldn't properly implement his attacks back when I started, so his behavior was completely different.

The first look at "Sputnitsa Dress Up" :D
Really bare bones for now, but it works perfectly as intended.
I wanted to make a dress up game for a long time. Why? Nostalgic, I guess. And making small finished games is good practice.
