In addition to implementing death animations, Will also modified our new backstab mechanics to be more in line with the results we were looking for, then worked on ensuring our Stat system properly displays in the crystal menu and properly performs clamps. Can you spot it? Let us know in the comments! Level Design.

There's a specific role the damaged piece plays in the Kristala demo's core storyline, and it coincides with an NPC we've been keeping under wraps up until this point. This sprint, Fede was able to continue working on the soldiers and armor he'd started, polishing up details and working on intricate textures.

In our last issue, we showed off Nicholas's progress on the details he's added to give this NPC the signature Keozan look. With Lophi's model and textures nearly complete, Pete spent the first half of this sprint finetuning this beasty baddie's details and adding some additional flare to the character's fins and spines.

Last issue, we shared the texturing work Cass had started on the forest homes, many of which resemble beautiful log cabins due to the intricate woodwork featured throughout. Much to Cass's relief (we're sure anyway), he was finally able to finish applying textures to the townhouses over the past few weeks. Take a look! Level Design.

One such creature featured in Kristala is a sweet and gentle Hemani named Cloudette, an NPC you'll encounter in a unique level area called The Hermitage. The last concept we were able to cross off our list this sprint is a character concept featuring a jolly and loveable Ana NPC named Neil of Nisarga. 3D Environmental Design.
