We've got some environment asset concepts today!
Our dev team is figuring out the growth aspects for an assortment of plants, including... rocks? Yep! I guess we're growing rocks in our upcoming game 🌱

A crab-like enemy, that looks suspiciously similar to our previous concept art post... 🧐

Be aware that they target on-site💥

Various pots inspired by an ancient civilization 🏺 🎋

While these items may be scattered around the rooms, you may find yourself taking inspiration and creating your very own!

We have 6 weeks until GDC, and things are getting crazy. We spent January tearing the game apart—refining shaders, cleaning up the UI, and rigging up some new, secret nightmares. We're loving the fanart, theories, and suggestions, and if you want to playtest Project R, you need to sign up below!

Two different ancient civilizations, two different tops, two different blades.
Our dev team's level of detail in the subtle but major differences shows the immense care they have for both ancient cultures. 🪴
