Greetings surveyors!
I’m proud to announce the full release of Side A for Periphery Synthetic EP. This update adds approximately 1,250 words to the perceptions that can be gained by exploring the desert world of Alpha Periphery B. Inside you learn more about the planet, its history, and perhaps yourself.
It also includes a few optimizations and fixes which improve the overall experience. I’m especially happy with the frame rate gains, which allow my aging computer to play at the maximum draw distance. This could be expanded further in the future.
This release also marks an important milestone for the project: it is now in beta! During this phase, the core game will receive limited updates while Side B is being developed. These may include improvements to the interface, audio cues, or movement mechanics which support the next side.
I’m excited to share the first screenshots soon.
Enjoy!
