- ANNOUNCEMENT - WHAT'S NEXT? - 19 December 2025
Hey everyone, I hope you’re all doing well! I wanted to share a quick update about the future of Aim Zen and explain why things have been a bit quiet on the update front since June. First off, I’ve been deeply involved as the co-founder and sole technical developer on several other projects that are scheduled to launch around Q1 2026. Once those games are released, I’ll have more time to focus on Aim Zen again. Looking ahead, I’m planning to release the Version 1 (V1) update of Aim Zen around Q2 or Q3 2026. One of the major features coming with that update is an improved Zen Editor. At the moment, the Zen Editor doesn’t allow you to upload your own music and create custom musical maps like in osu!, but that’s exactly what I’m planning to add. With the V1 update, you’ll be able to: • Upload your own tracks • Create custom musical maps • Enjoy enhanced visuals and UI improvements I truly…

- EA V0.5.(M) - TECHNICAL UPDATE - 4 May 2025
Zen Editor Development Update Thank you for trying out Zen Editor during its early access phase. This tool was designed to let you easily create and customize your own maps, but as you know, it's still in the early stages of development. Unfortunately, Unity Gaming Services recently announced the shutdown of their UGC (User Generated Content) system. Because of this, maps created within Zen Editor can now only be tested locally. Online sharing and downloading of maps is no longer available for the time being. I’ll be looking into alternative solutions, but until I find a solid replacement, this limitation will remain in place. On top of that, development on Aim Zen — and especially the long-awaited Musical Target System — has slowed down recently. The reason is simple: I’m currently focused on developing a new project called SUBJECTS, a multiplayer horror game that requires most of my a…
