with tweaks and shit
i've actually had the song ready to be looped for a while
idk how song looping works in terraria but ideally, it would loop just like it is here
when i originally made the song in october, i imagined it having this cool ass video glitching between menacing close ups of both draedon bodies, the mechs, all the bosses referenced, and various logos and all that jazz
now that i'm having to actually touch an editing program, i think that might have been a little above my ability level since i had never used any sort of editing software ever at the time
what really killed it though was the one event
the uh
part where a big chunk of the devs quit
seeing as all of the cool iban designs and concepts for a lot of the bosses had just been incinerated, that entirely killed my drive to keep on working on it, seeing as a lot of what i had sketched out was based on those designs
the thumbnail is the only completed remnant of it
yes i did indeed start work on this in early october
i "finished" it late october
the next few months were spent tweaking it
all the way up until partway through march, which is when i decided to release it
up until then, i had only posted a "finished" version in the clam art discord
and of course, even more tweaks afterward that you're now hearing
credits are the same, of course: dok for making the soundtrack, ennway for playing with firepower, pinpin for draedon's ambience thing that i sampled for the intro as well as inspiration from the infernum theme
p-2 was hard, the mindflayer room and the blood tunnel gave me the most trouble
and i abused the shit out of the screwdriver for sisyphus
and this was on standard, i dread even imagining what it's like on violent
