Today I implemented a dynamic soundtrack that evolves over time and altitude. From the ground, it provides a consonant backdrop while searching for materials. Harmonic components fade in and evolve as pilots with fully upgraded exosuits lift off and explore the tenuous atmosphere.

• implementing the dynamic soundtrack
• improving collision detection on slopes
• routing material sounds to a controllable bus
• ducking material sounds on notification sounds
• improving the overall mix
• revising material sounds to complement the music
• improving material spawning
• adding an update system (but still breaking saves, my bad)
• tracking available upgrades as materials are collected
• notifying pilots of available upgrades
• adding statistics for materials spent and crafted upgrades
• various tweaks and fixes

Overall I’m quite pleased with this project and I’m looking forward to sharing tomorrow’s build with the community. To get there, I will be focusing on outstanding documentation tasks and any loose ends that arise from playtests.
