BMAS Brogress Bost

I can't really call this another Dark Place Progress Post since I've been working on my book again, Between Music And Silence. (I still wish I could think of a better name.)

I've dived into making major revisions to the story structure and c...

Dark Place Progress Post #7

Hello! This post is very writing-themed! A week or so ago, I reached a point where I literally sat in place and didn't move or think for the entire day. Since then my energy has been increasing. I finally developed one of the ideas I've been mulli...

Dark Place Progress Post #6

Dark Place Progress Post #5

Dark Place Progress Post #4

Hello, this week I've worked on fixing up the intro to Welcome To The Dark Place, which has always been a strange part of the game structurally. I'm going to talk about it without spoiling the specifics, and this post might be more interesting to ...

Dark Place Progress Post #3

Hi, it has been a slow week for Welcome To The Dark Place. After finishing the last major addition, I revised some text and fixed many audios which were too loud or badly mixed. I also added a small scene which sits very far on the serious side of...

Dark Place Progress Post 2

Dark Place Progress Post #1

Hello, I'm just talking about Welcome To The Dark Place today. Part of why I want to talk about it is because I'm trying to make WttDP my main focus, and maybe talking about it obsessively here will help me fixate on it. Since Lethal Company is no...

Conflicted, undecided, many options

Hi, I just began recovering from a gnarly stomach flu or something which put me in bed for a while, so I've had some time to consider what to do next.

Endings

For Lethal Company, I still have not been able to think of a proper ending...

The Gigantic Version 60 Post

Hello again, Version 60 is out now so it's time to talk about it. As usual I'll try to go through in the order that it was all developed. Here we go!

New Scrap

The new scrap was mostly all modeled already, right around the tim...

Version 60 is rapidly approaching from a distance

Hello! Progress on Version 60 has been great, and it feels like it began with a head start. The only thing I haven't puzzled out for Version 60 is what the new creatures will be.

Something that happens when you hit a long, successful streak ...

The Version 55 post!

Hi, I'm sorry it's been almost a month; I basically missed two posts at this point.

In the last post I mentioned that the release date announcement was to serve as a deadline to motivate me, and it absolutely worked (in the last week.) Now I...

V55 soon??

If you haven't seen the release date trailer for Version 55, look here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AyWbIUvKLa8&feature=youtu.be

This is a weird post

Hi, I've continued to work on both Lethal Company and Welcome To The Dark Place. As usual I'll start with the former and end with the latter.

At the beginning of these two weeks I focused on Lethal Company exclusively while playing Animal We...

Deep into 2 projects

Hi, since I don't want to outright spoil the new addition to Lethal Company, I'm just going to refer to it by its acronym, the CC.

I've been working on Welcome To The Dark Place and Lethal Company at the same time; I have never been able to ...

The time is flying (and so are the jetpacks and tulip snakes)

Hello, it's an exciting time, so here is a progress report on what's going on.

Tulip Snakes

If we're going with chronological order...

The Version 50 Post

Hi, this is the post where I talk about all the work I've done on Version 50.

Artifice

The first thing I worked on was Artifice, back in January. For a while, artifice was called Adamance and Adamance was called Constancy, but...

Fresh thoughts after releasing Version 50 (on public beta branch)

Hi, Version 50 is out now on the public beta branch on Steam! I could have held off longer to make it more full of an update, but I decided everyone had waited long enough.

I'm exhausted so I'm not going to make the full Patreon post or patc...

2024 is a year

Hello, I'm sorry I haven't released an update to Lethal Company in so long. Crazy changes have taken place in my life, and I've been mentally and emotionally checked out; sometimes I have felt like I am waiting to "wake up". Throughout my life I h...

i found an old video

Hi, I've finished making the enemy I was modelling and texturing last time I posted. There were many times I considered scrapping it and moving onto something else. This enemy and the new moon were making me feel like Version 50 is an absolute tra...

Caves, and the "Weirdly Shaped Game"

Once again I have been watching videos about cave diving, deep diving, and dry cave exploration. I guess it's interesting because #1. I like watching people be experts at things I would never do. And #2. Caves and the ocean are some of the most in...

Should posts become free to view for non-patrons?

I have always thought of it less as an incentive and more as a way for me to give something exclusive back to you for being here. It kind of felt like a secret club where I could let you in on my plans. But as I am no longer in need of the stable ...

Playing a lot of games

Hello! 

At this point I just love to hate January. It's so dingy and wet and cold, I can't wait for it to be over. I've been sleepy and reflective, but I am making meaningful progress on Lethal Company.

This is a low p...

What a 2023

Hello! I'm in a bizarre transitory period in life right now, and meanwhile I've been inspired to look at my book again, Between Music And Silence.

It has been beside all my other projects since I started it in early 2018. I've had the dream ...

Christmas chaos--so many fast choices

Hello, this is a post about Version 45 of Lethal Company. Spoilers for that. All throughout this post you'll notice cases where I had an initial idea of how I would do something, then quickly changed to the second option.

So the Nutcracker w...

Busy month, short post, random thoughts

Hi, it has been a while again. This is the most busy I've been in any December. The image here is some concept art from May 30.

Where is Version 45??

Even though there's technically enough finished content in this update, I sort of h...

The times are good.

Hello, sorry it's been a while since I posted on here. I blame the chaos. I spent the entire last week working on the new creature (the baboon hawks which I teased here before) and fixing the game's most pressing issues. I'm going to talk about th...

The game is out!

Hello, it's been almost a week since the game released in early access. I was sick with a pretty bad Covid-like cold for the week before it came out, so I wasn't able to add as much as I wanted before then. But in the last week I added the electri...

The great outdoors (and abandoned facilities)!

Hello, it has been a while, since I put 100% focus into fixing bugs and adding things during the demo of Lethal Company. It was a very good time and I'm glad the game works (technically and fun-wise). I'm very thankful to everyone giving detailed ...

The beta test + bug fixing!

Hello, the past two weeks have been a busy time. I am still recovering from the days before the beta test and during it, since I was hardly able to sleep.

Closed beta test results

The closed beta that included about 100 people showed...
