i found an old video (Patreon)

Hi, I've finished making the enemy I was modelling and texturing last time I posted. There were many times I considered scrapping it and moving onto something else. This enemy and the new moon were making me feel like Version 50 is an absolute train wreck so far. But we played with it, and it is undeniably fun. The new enemy truly is a part of this cast of misfits--it feels like it's having a tantrum at the fact it was allowed to exist. I wanted Version 50 to be released by now, but I'm dealing with physical fatigue on top of major life changes and distractions.

Dead Seater's secret relation to Lethal Company

I still don't want to post the concept art for this enemy or the new moons I'm adding, so here is a video I found of Dead Seater, back when I hadn't built the house or anything. 

I originally planned for Dead Seater to be about landing in your space ship and entering a giant factory on an abandoned planet. This was based off of a dream I had about a multiplayer game where I landed on a dusty planet with a giant, cylindrical, monolithic, growth-like factory that rose up into the clouds, and I was supposed to try to get as far in as possible; there were hundreds of different entrances from the outside, many of which led to dead ends or traps. I think the idea was that one player would control the factory, acting as the security systems, traps, and cameras, trying to catch you and kill you. This player could even shift hallways around and unleash monsters.

But at the time making a multiplayer game was unthinkable to me, so the idea was instead turned into a seamless, linear exploration game, kind of like Inside. But since I didn't have any ideas for what would happen in the factory or where it would lead to, I scrapped the idea completely again and changed the name from The Paradox Plant to Dead Seater.
