Art
There’s a lot of thinking and planning happening with the art team right now! We’re living in a conceptual wonderland; a rough concept version of the upcoming Rebel City rebuild has been implemented, it will inform the design of the final city we see in the future! In addition, the enemy portraits are getting sketched out with concepts popping up for your favorite bosses. You’ll have faces to associate with their taunting dialogue before too long.
