What is next for Growing Explorations
🕑 Added 2025-08-01 12:49:40 +0000 UTCSo with the update out, I want to put forward what is the next on the list for updating in GE. There are quite a few things but these are some that will be added for sure, evel if not in the next version:
Morwenna encounter - she will grow quite a bit before the fight :)
Morwenna fight - expect a BIG boss fight
Lab cave - you will fight morwenna here
New Pixel art - I have started commissioning new pixel art for the characters. This will take quite a while but all spritesheets will be redone in due time in a new style and not just be drawn by me.
Better NPCs - The random NPCs in Arcathis are quite bad
NPC Shops - This was supposed to come out with this version but was held due to time and art issues
New UI - As I mentioned, I am working with a pixel artist to bring out a new UI to better the game's outlook
Better Combat - there are a few issues with combat currently, which will have to be fixed. I also want to rework the Elf and Dwarf's abilities as are quite bad at the moment.
Better Bosses - self explainatory. Currently bossfighting is quite scuffed, as such I want to fix a few things here and there to make it feel better
Leveling rework - right now it is quite bad and scales not in the right direction, so I will be changing it again
Music & SFX - there are already a few themes done for combats and whatnot. Will probably come in a small patch after the UI stuff is done too
Dwarf artwork - I am not sure when this will happen as Morwenna has a ton of artwork to be done for her. As such this may come in the update after next, but will finally cover all the artwork in the game that needed to be redone
That about sums it up. Will have to see which of these will come when but I hope to finish them for the next update. I will be updating you all on how it is going :)
For the next two months I will be focusing on working on Beyond Evolution, as such this update will be postponed for later. I want to finish BE and release it by the beginning of October at latest.
Also, with almost all races having received new artwork from Azazelz, I am beginning to contemplate - should we get another race or should I have all the stages for the current ones done first? I am currently not sure of this. I don't know how long finishing all stages will take and releasing a new race will increase the need for art in that regard. On the other hand a new race means a lot more gameplay to explore. As such I want to hear your opininons in the comments on this one.
Well, I hope you enjoyed the update and stay tuned for more content!

Thank you for the feesback! Will take it into consideration! Big morwenna will be quite something so look forward to that!

π§π€ honestly i'd prefer all the stages first and then the new race, as new race usually means just playing the game from start and well, we've got 4 races so that's something. but that's just me. And yeeea π³ big Morwenna. Ty for your work
