Heya! Been working on improving the upgrades ui lately. In order to make the upgrading process more satisfying, I'm making the visual changes to your ship in the ui much more significant than what we currently have implemented. 


This is the current upgrades menu. The ship will start out in a much more raw state than this. A visual change will occur to the specific component every 5 to 10 upgrades. Each component can be upgraded to level 40. Furthermore, there are a few more states to the canon not shown above because I don't want to spoil the fun.

This is what the old version of the canon upgrades looked like. As you can see, the changes are fewer and far less significant. In the new version the changes to all the components will be much more noticeable and effect a much larger area on the ship, making the look of the entire ship change dramatically from level 0 to 40.

It's a lot of work to make all these hi-res isometric assets, but the upgrade process is a huge part of the experience. Definitely worth the time.

Wow. This is looking really solid. I was never a fan of high-resolution pixel art, but this work has proven me wrong. Amazing job! Also makes me look forward to the game. I'm also getting some FTL vibes from the upgrades menu.

Thanks! I'm not such a big fan of hi-res pixel art where it gets to the point you have to squint to see the pixels. When you got this full screen the pixels are still nice and fat:)
