Weekly Manapost 00
Sorry for the lack of updates since our initial teasers, everybody! We've been focusing on finishing up the school year, so things have been *relatively* slow. However, that doesn't mean progress has stopped at all! It DOES mean that we'll have much more to share over the next couple of months, though! : ] Over the span of these "Manaposts" you'll get to see what's been made so far, and once we've caught up, you can expect to see more Manaposts every Sunday!
With that out of the way, here's the announcements for this week!
First Off - Model Magic As you likely know, our first showing of this "new" Manaport showed off a spinning off a spinning model of our main maestro, Laurie. As you likely don't know, that model's been updated since! You can see this new-new Laurie, Their robes haven't been added so that we can test out animations a bit more practically, but they'll be back soon!
Triple Trouble
Laurie's not alone in this journey! Alongside her, comes Mirabelle and Winsley. They're Manaport's deuteragonists, and will be playable as a whole trio. You'll get to hear more about these funky felines in a future Manapost. They're here to see now though!

Ani-motion à la Manapotion
SHE LIVES!!!!!! Ah, well, livelier anyhow. First animations are here! Idling, walking, and so on. Have a look!
Squad Swapping
Here comes the party system! At any time, you can switch which character in the team you directly control with the press of a button. Check out the swapping in action below!
Lastly...
Happy Anniversary! Three Years of Manapotion!!!
Today marks the third year since we've started Manapotion, and game-making as a whole (this also Manaport's birthday!) We've officially started our first "real" year, but that doesnt discredit all the work and learning that was needed to get Manaport (and our second project) to where it is now. We (C/R and Y) have had a great time working on these silly games for you all. While we haven't released anything yet, We promise to deliver on these major projects! No matter how long we take, we hope the wait will have been more than worth it. Here's to another year of silliness! -C/R and Y
