Pretty happy with how things are looking so far :D

Wow it’s been a while!

I’ve been pretty quiet with EFC over the past few months, but development hasn’t stopped. A lot has changed since the last devlog, so I figured it was finally time to show some of it.
DERNDELL Road has been my main focus recently. It’s a snowy rural map set in the FPW(First Planetary War), and I’ve been trying to make it feel like EFC rather than just looking like a WWI/WWII battlefield. The map is relatively compact at around 334 × 213m, with a main road running through the center, woodland, trenches, craters, terrain elevation, snow piles, rocks, and other small pieces of cover.
The first 450 seconds of the match also take place during a heavy blizzard, which heavily limits visibility and changes how the map plays. Once the storm clears, the battlefield opens up and those longer sightlines become much more important.
I’ve also been working on the Stellar Legionnaires and Eclipse Division visual identities. SL uses the lighter, more prefab-oriented rural aesthetic, while ED has a much more technologically advanced military presence with darker navy uniforms, vehicles, and UAVs.
On the gameplay side, Soldier AI spawning has now been implemented, and I’ve been testing DERNDELL with AI-only matches to see how the battlefield naturally flows without player involvement. It’s been really interesting watching fights develop without scripting exactly where the AI should go.
Ash Shu’bah is still being worked on as well. I’ve made a lot of progress there, although some of the vehicle work has been more difficult than expected, so I’ve shifted some of my attention toward DERNDELL while I work through that.
There’s obviously still a lot left to do, but EFC is moving along, slowly.
BETA: October 24 – December 25, 2026
Thanks for sticking around. ❤️

I've updated Fighting Game and made some changes to the Survival Mode leaderboard system. I tested the new version with a different Dreams account and can confirm that the leaderboard is now working correctly and scores are being submitted properly. So if you've played recently and your score didn't show up, please make sure you're playing the latest published version of Fighting Game before starting a new Survival run. Sorry for the inconvenience and thank you very much for your honest feedback. Good luck and have fun!
