Sound Check!

Ahoy, mateys!

The Shipwreck Crew has steadily forging away in Unreal Engine, and we’re absolutely humming with excitement over how things are shaping up. Moving to Unreal wasn't a decision we made lightly, but we're glad we did.

Tobi (and Obi!) has been rebuilt from the ground up, and we’re thrilled with how smooth he feels. Thanks to pure passion, hard work, and a deep dive into Mario Odyssey’s mechanics, Tobi’s movement is slicker than ever. We’re confident he feels as tight and responsive as Mario—if not even slicker, given his quicksilver form.

Meanwhile, we’ve been chipping away at every corner of the game—UI, sound, music, level design, and character design—all coming together beautifully. We’re especially excited about the soundtrack, which perfectly captures the spiritual yet gothic undertones of the game. It’s as haunting and ethereal as the world itself, and we think you’ll love how it ties everything together.

And, because we can’t resist giving you a sneak peek, we’ve put together a nearly 10-minute teaser showcasing the audio and soundtrack that bring this world to life. We’ve got so much more to share, but we’re holding back a bit to keep the best stuff under wraps for now. Trust us, though—there’s enough happening to fill another ten blog posts!

We’re crafting this vision with care, and things have never looked better. We can’t wait to share more with you soon!
