Hello
We wanted to make something cool and short, just to get something out and in front of people for a morale boost while we're still deep in development for Episode 1. So we got to work making a mini episode starring the Thornz in a small side adventure called "Escape From Pork Belly"
EfPB is a short, stand-alone adventure that takes place between the Pilot and Episode 1, where you take the role of Zambezi in Punch Out style combat. Round after round, you'll take down heavily stylized opponents in simple, highly satisfying combat. Winning a match let's you move up a rung, but losing sends you right back to the beginning. After enough rounds, you'll hit a boss who wants you gone.
Between rounds, come check out what this cowboy is selling from the back of her van. In the shop you can buy items or power-ups to help you advance through the game.
It's not quite done yet, but anticipate something sooner rather than later. We think EfPB is turning into something really wild, shooting from the hip spark of energy that will energize anyone who's a fan of Star Fetchers.
Real note
On a very real note at the end here, working on this has been very refreshing and necessary. When you work on the same thing for so long, you can lose yourself just a little. You get stuck and feel rigid or unsure about everything. Working on this mini episode has shaken out so many cobwebs and development stresses, while also helping us feel creative again. We're aware of the want for Episode 1, so we sincerely thank you for being a great and supportive community while we're wrappin' this DLC up.
Last note
Last thing I'd like to say is that I want to apologize for neglecting the community here on steam, I don't personally use steam as a community hub and has thus underappreciated it as a platform to update and properly announce things on. I'll try to do better to update this place on the regular, even when we don't have super big news to announce.
Thank you for sticking with us / LK
