Hey, fellow gamers and supporters! Oh boy, it feels like ages since I last dropped a devlog or any other update, and for that, I humbly apologize. Life threw me a series of critical hit setbacks, but I want to assure you that I haven't given up on this game, I'm still here, grinding away on this game like a caffeine-fueled maniac, and I'm here to share some exciting progress with you all.

First things first, my bad for disappearing off the face of the gaming universe. I ran into some unexpected hurdles and personal setbacks that messed with my ability to stay in touch regularly. But trust me when I say that I haven't lost an ounce of passion for this game. If anything, those hurdles only fueled my determination to make this game. I'm sorry for keeping you all in the dark, and I promise to keep the communication flowing from now on.

Say Hello to the Sentients

Ladies and gentlemen, prepare your neurons for an extraordinary encounter—behold, the Sentients have arrived! These ain't your run-of-the-mill enemies. No sir, these foes possess a remarkable level of autonomy and complexity, making them an exciting challenge for players.

My main goal with the Sentients was to make them feel like real living creatures. So I've been working hard as heck to make these -for now police sirens, I know- act and "think" in ways that'll keep you on alert. They'll attack you, tear each other apart, and even wreck some of the environment around you.

One of the most exciting aspects of the Sentients is their ability to interact with the game world on a deeper level. Not only can they engage in combat, but they can also destroy matter and even manipulate elements of the environment. This opens up new strategic possibilities for players and adds an immersive layer to the overall gameplay experience.

Final words (for this devlog)

I'd like to express my gratitude for your unwavering support and understanding during this prolonged period of silence. Your comments of encouragement continue to inspire me to push forward and deliver an exceptional gaming experience. While challenges may arise, rest assured that I am more determined than ever to see this project reach its full potential.

Please stay tuned for future updates, as I am committed to keeping you informed on the progress of the game. Together, we will create something truly extraordinary. Thank you for being a part of this journey, and let's forge ahead into an exciting future filled with more Matter, puzzles, Sentients and endless adventure!

Until next time, JB
