• Ecliptica DevLog 14 - 29 August 2026

  Welcome everyone to the 14th development log for Ecliptica! Let’s break down what’s new.Atmosphere: Visual Changes and Dynamic CloudsWe have brand-new lighting, and you are immediately greeted by new dynamic clouds. They depend on your current altitude as well as the weather: it can be overcast, a thunderstorm, or clear skies.Gameplay: Squad SystemSo, what about gameplay?Yes, we have added a squad system to the game. It allows you to command groups of colonists, giving them individual orders as well as general directions to complete tasks. For example, here we see that some colonists were initially gathering resources while another group guarded them, and a third separate group attacked them to plunder.How does it work?Dialogue Integration: The system is fully integrated into our dialogues. You can approach any settlement resident and invite them to your squad. Naturally, it’s not for f…

• Ecliptica DevLog 12 - 1 March 2026

  Hello everyone! It has been quite a while since the last update, and we have been very busy during this time. Every single detail has been worked through from start to finish. This approach takes more time, but the final result feels completely different — which is crucial for the game's uniqueness.And while there are many technical improvements "under the hood," today we will focus only on what concerns the combat system.Tools and WeaponsThe main innovation is that we have implemented operational modes for all types of tools. Every tool or weapon in the game can have from one to several work modes. You can simultaneously manage six types of tools, switching their modes without being distracted by menus. This adds dynamics to the game in complex situations where you need to react quickly.You can configure your entire set in advance for specific tasks. For example, you can connect severa…

• Ecliptica Devlog 11: Atmosphere, Terrain, and Optimization! - 28 November 2025

  Hello everyone!The time has come to share our progress. Although it’s clear from previous posts that the primary focus has been on the gameplay component (which I’d like to save for the Ecliptica 1.5 playtest), there are still significant improvements we can share today.So, let's dive into what we've managed to achieve:1. Visual Enhancements: Dynamic Clouds and Soft LightingAlthough this was partially shown in the previous post, it was without video, and to be honest, it wasn't quite clear what the new atmosphere looked like. So, I added it to the video to showcase:Dynamic Clouds and Atmosphere.Soft Lighting.2. Volumetric Terrain (Parallax Occlusion Mapping)I finally managed to correctly implement Parallax Occlusion Mapping (POM). Now the ground textures have volume and localized small irregularities, which makes the world significantly more appealing.3. New Resource Mining SystemThis i…

And with that, let's go!Dynamic and destructible world One of the biggest new features you'll see in this dev diary is a fully interactive and destructible world. We're showing how players will be able to destroy landscape elements such as large boulders, trees, grass — basically everything in the game.Landscape deformation Our world is not only destructible, but also subject to change. You can dig, build, and pile up, which makes the landscape player-controllable.Support for Rigging, Morphing, and other Qt Quick 3D featuresFinally, we've gotten to integrating Qt Quick 3D's game features such as the particle system, rigging, and morphing animation. These are quite basic functions in game development, and without them, the game wou…

Pre-Demo: This is essentially the preparatory stage we are currently in. We might conduct playtests for anyone interested here before the demo release.1. Demo: Here we will showcase the basic game mechanics and, of course, Ecliptica's open and infinite world. This build will be av…
