@bevy Yayyyy thanks for the awesome work <3<3<3

Time to fix the gazillion upgrade conflicts in my game 😭 (worth it)

Flying through the Aurora of Jupiter.

This looks relatively bland atm, but I'm working on making this better :)

Jupiter in was missing something essential so far.

✨ Auroras! ✨

Working on a new feature:

Modding your space suit, through various settings that change the power usage of each system. ⚡

Screenshot shows what happens if you max out the flashlight =D

Theoretically this is 100 gigalumens, about ONE MILLION STADIUM FLOODLIGHTS. 🔥 Sounds like much, but space is really empty and even this won't get you very far.

Perhaps the next feature should be that NPCs shoot you when you burn their eyes out and fry their cameras like this =P

Working on adding thruster particles to the space suit in OutFly.

This is absolutely not what it will look like in the end, but maybe you like this work-in-progress screenshot =)

(Yes, I said before that the particles are not visible to the naked eye, but there is an feature in the game, and if you enable it, thruster particles will be shown for your aesthetic pleasure.)

The first screenshot ever of , next to a current one!

That's supposed to be an ASCII-art asteroid with a house on top and a rocket engine on the left side. :'D

Amazing how far this game has come.

A current screenshot of OutFly showing a 3D scene, mostly black, with a car-like spaceship that reflects the sunlight, the sun and other stars in the background, a communications satellite that's being targeted by the UI, an asteroid with glowing light orbs and a big upside-down neon sign saying PIZZA, another asteorid that's seen from its shadow side and that's barely visible with just a crater illuminated, and various neon pink colored UI elements like O2, battery, health, speed, distance to target, cursor, and a warning light indicating a space suit leak.

And here's the beautiful creature inside the game :) The "Headmogus Crabsus", as @unfa called it.

His name is in fact "Sus", but that's coincidental and has nothing to do with . 😅

It's already in the current git version, along with a nice conversation about science and setting priorities in life.

@bevy Is there some official badge/shield that I can add to my open source project that says "Powered by Bevy" or something similar? Ideally with the bevy logo?

Something that would fit in here:
