Progress Report for November 2023
🕑 Added 2023-11-25 12:10:26 +0000 UTCFirstly, about Astralaria, we are currently proofreading the map material and preparing the corresponding curious ,trinkets and enemies.
Here are a few examples
For the framework part of the mod, we're currently working on material needed in the core storyline, such as the town homepage section, which the illustrator used 3D modelling to determine better placement. Don't mind the figures, they are used as a reference for the height and position of the characters. In addition to this, the logo and other elements are also being designed.
It's a random encounter boss in the ruins, with art and animation already completed, and will be available for download soon after completing the programming portion (the shape design is derived from Shadowverse).

Then there's the part about class mods.
A note about some of the mods left over from the past.
Neisa class, which is on a long hiatus because the artist is busy with work, may resume production, depending on the artist's specific situation.
Bloody Mary, the artist wanted to revise the details, but so far no new content has been submitted, so it can also be considered stopped. The character is actually close to completion, but production won't continue without confirmation from the artist. There is some pity.
Sleeper class. it's rather unfortunate that the artist has likewise dropped production due to work. However, he did leave us with some other original designs, so perhaps the old design case can be considered after completing these current characters.
Some of the above are projects that have been stalled for a long time or have been substantially considered stopped for various reasons. The reason for this is that a large portion of our production is done in collaboration with artists outside of the production team who are interested in Darkest Dungeon by providing them with technical and resource support. As a result, there is no 100% guarantee that these projects will be completed. As a rule of thumb, about 50% of these projects are completed.
After talking about the previous content, let's talk about the recent progress.
The Mystic class will be undergoing some adjustments, and I think the current illustration style and characterisation is a bit of a departure from the original character design. The previous version was "too cute", so we're planning to push Mystic back until we can move forward with a more suitable artist for the character within the team. In other words, her progress will be put on hold to focus on Aeon and the new character that will take Mystic's current place in the production.
↑ This is my preferred original draft.
↑ Here's the previous finished product.
Aeon class is currently in a normal state, with character designs and the first illustration completed, and the artist has also taken on the drawing of a new envoy regarding the Exordium Trinkets Pack in the meantime. We will be doing an update of this trinket pack soon.
Replaces Mystic Production Shundei's character, whose real name is Du Yi Yu, and whose professional name is currently undecided.
Oriental style, fights with a sniper rifle and dagger.
Originally scheduled to be made this month, Harpy's animation has been delayed due to my personal reasons. As a result the production process had to wait another 2-3 weeks as well. The optimisation of Abigail's animation is going on as normal, and apart from that a new version has been updated and bugs have been fixed.
Abigail only, the programmer provides support for the Black Reliquary. You can see Abigail's new animations in the image below, but we haven't put them into the mod yet. We need to tweak the other illustrations, so animation optimisation will be installed in the next update.
Click here to jump to the download link, the mod is free and public.
You can leave a comment below with bugs encountered or comments and suggestions.

And finally something unrelated to the topic of Darkest Dungeon.
I recently tried to play Starsector, and it just so happens that a friend close to me is working on a Far Planet mod, and I took advantage of my free time with the intention of making some interesting content.
These are ships from EVE online, the mod will be free, and my artwork will be put into the public domain with a waiver of all rights. If there are any mod authors here for that game, you can follow and download the art materials then.
I recommend playing Starsector as well, sci-fi style Mount & Blade, very addictive.

rip in Bloody Mary, that looks like it'll be a slam dunk character

Thanks for the update! Can you tell us anything about the devourer and the Hitomi (son of god I think?) Classes? I really loved the devourer class but so far not much has been mentioned
