The short version

  • Cocoa Tap got a big visual refresh.
  • Project Lantern moved into a sturdier home.
  • Iron Corner's blueprints are done.

Cocoa Tap

  1. Codename (done)
  2. Prototype (done)
  3. In Production (current stage)
  4. Playtest
  5. Launched

The factory got a whole new coat of paint these past two weeks. The machines are sharper, the colours are warmer, and the little crew got tidied up too. It all feels like one place now, and it's a lot more fun to just sit and watch.

Project Lantern

  1. Codename (done)
  2. Prototype (current stage)
  3. In Production
  4. Playtest
  5. Launched

Project Lantern packed up and moved into a sturdier home. The first rooms are standing and the doors open. It's still grey walls and rough edges, which is exactly where it should be right now.

Iron Corner

  1. Codename (current stage)
  2. Prototype
  3. In Production
  4. Playtest
  5. Launched

Iron Corner spent these two weeks on paper. The plan is written, the look is locked in, and I've poked at it hard to find the weak spots before a single wall goes up. Next comes the fun part.

Something stirring

Not every light in the Works is switched on yet.

Next stop

Next time: the factory starts to feel lived-in, and the gym gets its first walls.
