[b]Hi everyone, [/b]  This is our first announcement here on Steam since we started working on our game! Even thought a lot has happened since the beginning, we still have quite a few steps to take before we are finished with the game. We’re hoping you’ll come along on this journey, together with us! If you have already pre-ordered the game through our Kickstarter, you can try out our Horde Mode (or even our Hell Mode if you’re feeling cocky), right here on Steam using your Closed Beta Steam Key. If you haven’t received your Closed Beta Steam Key from the Kickstarter, hit us up on the Discord (discord.gg/gofightfantastic) and we’ll help you out right away! [b]We are currently working on the Story Mode and putting a lot of hard work into it. [/b] Here are some things that we have accomplished recently: - We’ve made a ton of improvements to our enemy-behaviors, specifically more intelligent movement and attack behaviors. - We’re adding a new enemy, called the Zoner – a sneaky, ranged caster type enemy. - We’ve made a bunch of progress on the cutscenes for Chapter 1 - The first real boss (Froggy, as seen in the trailer) is starting to really come together! - A lot of work on environment art for Chapter 1, such as the town square opening and the first stretch of journey through the woods. The adventure is really coming together! And, just as you can see on our cover image, we’ve also made new character portraits of Dark Matter, Max Sparkles and Super Nova! We really wanted to convey our characters’ different personalities by gesture and facial expression, and we think we really nailed it! [b] Our (first) three main characters: [/b]  [b]Dark Matter[/b], to the left, is not afraid to speak his mind and always follows his own path. He's always been pretty cocky and stubborn, and even as a child he ran away from his foster home and never to look back. In the middle we have [b]Super Nova[/b]! She is the calm and strong one in the crew. But even though she always looks calm and in total control, she can be quite anxious. There is a reason to why she is the tank - she is always ready to take a rough beating with her shield and high HP! Last but not least, we have [b]Max Sparkles,[/b] and as you can see, he's a happy go lucky guy! He has a spirit companion that gives him his healing power. And, in fact, that little lightbulb has a name - Aumakua! Aumakua and Max are a good team, always looking out for each other. We also want to inform you that every week before Christmas we are announcing different contests at our Discord, and you can win some pretty sweet prices! So please don't forget to join the community over there as well at https://Discord.gg/GoFightFantastic! 😊 [b]We wish you all a FANTASTIC week! [/b]
