I am still working on the art concepts for the next phase of the project.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I will be adding in new vehicles, new enemies, and new story elements, which will take a lot of time, but it should add a lot more depth to the gameplay.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I have also been looking into volumetric nebulae, gas giants, and clouds.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
