Strange to release this little DLC that I wrote 2 years ago!! It's free (available when you finish story mode), and is a small little durational letter-writing epilogue. Hope y'all enjoy. 💚

It's been a while since I talked about the Box Art of Mutazione. Now you can buy the "regular" Edition of the game for Switch and PS4 (with the intended final state of the Box Art) at Best Buy.

We went away for the minimal logo, but before we settled for the final logo, this one was a possible candidate. I do quite like it still, but it wasn't the best fit.

the vertical version needed to be expanded horizontally, as we wanted to use this for splash screens and other purposes.

an early version with a minimalistic logo and fewer details. I went for the evening light version from there... I didn't want to use green colours for this.

I just re-discovered this: I planned to do a set of three Box Arts that you would be able to connect vertically, one on tree tops, one in the swamps and one underground...
If I'd only have had more time for making box art...

to finish off this thread, the trailer I made for the first garden update, featuring cloud island. It's more than a year old now, but I still like looking at it:

The main challenge was to keep the original simplicity and still provide soil types for all plants, since we decided to release cloud island as the first garden of our garden update.

When we decided to finally add cloud island to the game and turn it to one of the gardens in 2018, I tried to "upgrade" cloud island with more stuff. However that never felt right and eventually I circled back to the simplicity of the first sketch.

Cloud island weather and cloud concepts from 2013, which was not that far from how it looked in the first garden update. (maybe apart from the fog)
