Every world needs a rhythm. 🌙✨
Compás de Luna, composed by @juanschmulenson.com captures the quiet mystery of ēvolūTiō’s nights.
A melody for wandering under starlight… and for the battles yet to come.

🎮 UI in Action 🎮
The new interface isn’t just a facelift—it’s fully integrated into gameplay. From health bars to ability icons, everything is sharper, cleaner!

It feels right at home in battle. What’s the first thing you notice? 👀

We’ve finished overhauling the in-game interface! Sleeker menus, clearer icons, and a smoother flow to keep the focus where it belongs—on the battle. ⚔️

What do you think of the new look? 👀

We’ve been hard at work designing new battlegrounds, each with flowing rivers, vertical combat, and tricky terrain that changes how every fight plays out.

Here’s a look at one of our favourite shots from the trailer
From Sketch to Final Render
Every frame starts as a rough idea on paper before it comes alive with colour, lighting, and motion.

We’ve been experimenting with Blockbench to bring our 3D environments to life! 🧊✨
Mixing pixel art with 3D is no easy feat, but we’re loving the results so far.
What do you think of this direction? 👀
