Radical Fish Games

Hello everyball!

So… we’re not entirely done yet! Today we’ll release another small update for the DLC Crosscode: A New Home, adding a bit of more optional content!

What’s New?

This update includes a bit of optional content that we originally hoped to released a month ago, but didn’t quite manage to finish in time.

Version 1.4.1 includes 3 quests as well as a couple of arena cups and new Trade Offers in Rhombus Square.

Note that the new content is part of the A New Home DLC and not included in the main game.

Here a few impressions of what’s included:

Actual boss enemies can be properly seen in the game!

This update is pretty much the final content addition to CrossCode! With following releases we only plan to fix remaining bugs and issues.

That means, after over 9 years of development, CrossCode has finally been completed!

What about CrossCode 2?

We noticed that several players are now counting on a sequel to be developed, especially due to a certain cutscene in A New Home.

We sort of regret adding that cutscene, because the truth is:
Right now, there are no plans for a sequel to CrossCode.

We definitely had a great time working on this title and see the world and its characters grow.
But after 9 whole years, we are ready to work on something new.

Our Next Game

We’re currently in the prototyping phase for our next game.

That games doesn’t have a proper name yet, but it does have a temporary project title:

Project Terra

Project Terra will be an Action-RPG, with a gameplay mix similar to CrossCode, featuring a new setting and story line!

Here are a few impressions you might have seen recently on twitter:

Here's a WIP sneak peak of @RadicalFishGame's #ProjectThatNeedsAHashtag's aesthetic and rendering. 2,5D is working excellent here I think.#gamedev #indiedev #pixelart pic.twitter.com/4RKRF2LJhh

I wanna show something I worked on a while back for #ProjectTerra as well: Lighting!

Here I show some of our options on some randomized lights! We have a lot of control over every light to create different moods and sceneries! pic.twitter.com/O5EGdtuBjs

Recently I've been busy working on the editors for the next project (that still needs a proper hashtag). Tile editing is mostly done, I think!

In #CrossCode I always had to restart the game to position UI elements. NO MORE! #gamedev #HTML5 #theGameThatStillNeedsAProperTitle pic.twitter.com/KDfiLir1pV

It doesn’t look much like a game yet, but we’ll get there! Right now, we’re mostly working on tools.

We’ll talk more about the new project within the next few months.

But for now, a short disclaimer:

That’s right! The state of Germany is financially supporting the development of the Project Terra prototype! Yay! Tax money well spend.

So yeah, expect more, hopefully exciting news soon!

Until then!
