We’ve made a good deal of progress so far. I’m really loving my time working on it, and I’ve been able to play around with some of the cooler narrative and gameplay ideas that I’ve toyed with since the very beginning. Rest assured that there’s a lot of really good stuff in here and I can’t wait for you to see it.Īs I’ve said before, the DLC won’t conclude the story of Katana ZERO, but it will explore some of the burning questions you may have. There’s so much that I wish I could share, but I don’t want to spoil the experience. Those are all great questions! But for now, I need to get back to work - these games aren’t going to make themselves!įirst, I’d like to thank everyone for their patience in waiting for the free Katana ZERO DLC. Who are these people, and what are they doing here?

It shouldn’t be too much for a katana-wielding assassin to overcome though, especially with a few new toys he’ll find in the secretive New Mecca labs. They shoot bouncing bullets and have a couple of other tricks up their sleeves. Here, you’ll encounter New Mecca scientists. Our friends at Fangamer are working on re-pressing the Katana ZERO vinyl, so keep an eye out! The Government Lab Oh, and it also has a roguelike RPG dungeon crawler part now. It’s kind of like Pokemon meets Animal Crossing but taken in an entirely unique direction. Thanks for asking! As some of you know, I’ve been splitting my time between Katana ZERO and a mobile game I’m making called Pocket Squirrel. The DLC won’t be expanding anymore either - the plan is set and now we’re focused on finishing it. But don’t fret! The game is progressing at a healthy pace, and the whole dev team is working full steam on production. I’m also still doing all the programming and design myself - this is my passion project after all.

There’s a ton of content finished, but this is a large project and I’m aspiring to the same level of quality and attention of the base game. Development took an unexpected slowdown last year, but things are normalizing now and I want to repay the fans who have given me so much. It’s (still) on the houseĭespite the significantly larger size, I’m still planning on releasing this for free. It’s less like a DLC and more like Katana 1.5. This means more levels, mechanics, enemies, bosses, and intertwined story elements. That’s a bit over half the size of the main game. That’s right! The free Katana ZERO DLC will be 6x the original planned size.
