Progress Update: 9/1/23 (Arcaxon)

Hello everyone, sorry for the long amount of time between the updates.

I've recovered fairly well from my tooth surgery but I'll be honest it really threw me out of the tempo and has made it harder for me to work.

Thankfully though we're at the end and I have now finished all other sections except for 27; the last one!

All sections combined before 27 are about 35Minutes and a half of animation, most of which use at least 2 canvases each!

This last section though, 27, is packed and may take a bit longer than the rest of the other sections. (It has 19 animations to be made within compared to the usual 2 to 3 per section before it)

My plan for this coming week is to start 27 and hope I can finish a good chunk of the animations needed! Just today me and Fred were in a meeting discussing and finalizing the details of all the maps in section 27.

I'm glad we're finally here at the FINAL stretch! I also wanted to thank you all for being so incredibly supportive, including you Fred! Thank you all so much! ❤️

After this video is done I'll be doing a post-mortem so that waits like these don't ever happen again.

For today's Show and tell I got a small section of Section 18, it's just a bunch of ships jumping to a place preparing for a fight!

(Fredrik addition: It's fascinating to see the way that the animations have escalated over the course of the video. At first, it was just a few ships showing up, and Arc does a fantastic job of showing the increase in scale over the game's two decades of life so far.)
