We recently took some drone photos for our level design team to use as reference. 📸
Enjoy a comparison between the photo and the game build. We plan to double down on our use of this method as we continue world-production for 0.7.0.

Here's a bonus comparison showing off some texturing courtesy of Victor on our team.
Most games feature the Humvee; however, the Canadian military uses the G Wagon - Light Utility Vehicle Wheeled (LUVW).
Falling in line with the Canadian location, we feel the accurate representation of Canadian armed forces is integral in storytelling and immersion. 🇨🇦

Our character artists have nearly completed the starting outfits for each of the different professions.
Enjoy a look at the blacksmith, security guard, and delivery driver.
Focusing on where characters started versus where they end up is an important element of #DeadMatter.
ICYMI: our latest blog post contained a preview of our mission system, dialogue system, and new furniture interaction. 🔎🗣️🪑
It's a simple test mission, but should give you an idea of how things will feel.

Full disclosure: this isn't the sexiest #ScreenshotSaturday you'll ever see from us. 🖼️
However, Julian, our new Technical Artist, has implemented an easy-to-use system for electrical poles which our level designers are utilizing. We think it looks great!

One of our new technical artists has been helping to implement a new retro-reflective shading model. 🪞
This allows us to enhance the appearance and visibility of objects at night.
Be careful if your clothing has any reflective elements. You may be easier to spot. 👀
We're breaking in August with a new blog post! 🗓️
It contains a lot of dorky code stuff (with info links for those into that kind of thing), as well as updates on reflective lighting, assets, character designs, a new vehicle, & more. 🔦👪🚚

ICYMI: we’re trying to address the presence of different kinds of loot sources in the world - namely, corpses. ☠️
We can’t guarantee that these will be ready for 0.7.0, but we’re aiming to provide more death and decay to the game world.

Many locations will relatively pristine, while others will show signs of struggle.
