Congratulations, thanks for playing!
Nice to hear you are interested in further development of the game.
An update right after the jam votes close is already planned. It will mainly include bugfixes for monster behavior, sounds (important for ambiance as you mentioned) and some tweaks/QOL (like a retry button if you die).
Then, I will try to improve the game a little more with:
- A proper interface/menu
- Sanity system that I didn't have time to implement during the jam
- Maybe, with the help of my two teammates, sprites adjustments and original soundtrack
After that, I want to continue experimenting in the Dungeon Crawler genre, but I don't know yet if that will take the form of an expansion to Cosmic Dreadnought or a different project.
