As the game tiptoes nearer to completion, I've decided to finally stop neglecting this page and try my best for some sort of weekly dev update; even if that just amounts to screenshots. For this first week, we'll be taking a look at the game's final world (ironically enough,) Dormant Kingdom! After being cornered in Cosmopolis, Ulcethot retreats to this forsaken turf to gather his most secretive weapons and allies.

The Dormant Kingdom mixes motifs of far north and far east to create a uniquely mysterious and foreboding ice-themed final world. The first stage, Desolate Coast, might already look a bit spooky; but trust me, this is absolutely the calm before the storm.

Watch out for Thrashers! These barfing beasts have neither mercy nor shame, and will quite gleefully take pot shots at you while you're already in a risky situation. 

Frebb is no stranger to mean birds, but rokubus is one of the first with the power to back his attitude. He'll circle overhead and attack with lightning-fast divebombs. The only real way to fight back is to intercept it with an attack of your own, and since rokubus is a bit tougher than most foes, you'll probably need to do it twice!

Someone's been harassing Frebb with plasma balls throughout the better portion of the level. Who is he? What's his deal? I guess Frebb'll just need to 'talk it out' with him once he reaches the end.
