New updates and improvements to the Genoverse
Below are some of the items the Genopets team has worked on over the past few weeks. We’re pulling back the curtain to show you, fellow Genovians, what goes into making a game.
Note: most items below, unless noted, are not final. Many things that we share in Status Reports will include early renderings, prototypes, or explorations so please keep that in mind when sharing thoughts.

New items. New abilities. More control — Reagents are coming
A key component of crafting is coming to life! Reagents allow you to control the type of item you get. Use a horn reagent to get a horn augment. Use a wing reagent to get a wing augment. Etc etc. Check out the colorized reagent sketches our art team has conjured so far.
