Alright, here's an update about the latest changes and the current plan for the project's future.
Changes:
Regarding the future of the project:
When I started working on this a few months ago I only had a vague vision of what I wanted it to be. More recently that vision has become more defined and it is unfortunately quite different from the current state of the project. Because of this, I am going to be making lots of big changes and redoing nearly everything to make it better, more robust, and better aligned with my vision. (I'll probably stop updating the itch build as frequently but I'll continue being active in the discord. For anyone just discovering this project I'd recommend you go there if you want to see how the game is progressing.)
Additionally, since the game is going to be undergoing some major changes, it will be renamed and the "Working Title" prefix will be dropped. The game is still going to be a Devil-Daggers/Quake-inspired arena shooter but the thematic elements will be different enough that the name "Borealis" did not seem like a good fit.
I'm very excited with the direction the game is taking and look forward to getting some good progress made over the next few weeks to months.
