[Live Patch]The Human-type character is available now!(0.1.6v)
Now you can enjoy two completely different types of characters! An alien character who was able to play in the demo version, which was released in November 2019, will be revived again. We analyzed the play data of the demo version and then changed it to an action-oriented "flame" character to lower the entry barrier at the launch of Early Access. But our decision has led to fewer choices for players who were playing traditional sandbox game in the demo version. We are sorry that we have made a hasty decision on our own to narrow down the players' choices because of the burden of early access. But we've already had the early stages, and we've had a lot of enlightenment. We admit that RE:OZMA's first entry play was very tough because of the sudden change in character. So the decision that we made was...
We have now decided to hand over the choices to the players, and to create an environment in which players can choose and play characters to suit taste. However, two completely play styles in one build, UI, are difficult for the other character to coexist, so we're prepared to divide the build into two pieces and play it selectively. When running the library in Steam, you can choose between Human and Flame to play. We will continue to service both builds live.
If you like the play style of a human-type alien character, please select the [Human type] when running the launcher after the 0.1.6 version patch. The human-type alien character has the same play stream as the traditional demo, and it reflects the early barrier improvements, balancing, and bug fixes that we've refined over the past month.
*Character Tutorial
*Character Digging
*Character Skill
*Weapon
*Character Amor
*Dyeing system
RE:OZMA's overall gaming graphics color adjusts the visibility of the play, allowing you to play with more relaxed eyes.
Boss monster Bufferrun's HP has been adjusted from 80,000 to 50,000 and reduced attack power and speed by 50%. It will be easier to clear than before.
Capsule beds have been added to the manufacturing list for starting points on ice planets. Moving across to play a different planet to make a capsule bed when you travel in.

Hello, Adventures! It's the 5th week of RE:OZMA's Early Access launch.
1.The human-type alien character has finally been RAISED FROM THE DEAD!
Now you can enjoy two completely different types of characters! An alien character who was able to play in the demo version, which was released in November 2019, will be revived again. We analyzed the play data of the demo version and then changed it to an action-oriented "flame" character to lower the entry barrier at the launch of Early Access. But our decision has led to fewer choices for players who were playing traditional sandbox game in the demo version. We are sorry that we have made a hasty decision on our own to narrow down the players' choices because of the burden of early access. But we've already had the early stages, and we've had a lot of enlightenment. We admit that RE:OZMA's first entry play was very tough because of the sudden change in character. So the decision that we made was...
"Let's revive the human character."
We have now decided to hand over the choices to the players, and to create an environment in which players can choose and play characters to suit taste. However, two completely play styles in one build, UI, are difficult for the other character to coexist, so we're prepared to divide the build into two pieces and play it selectively.

Boss monster Bufferrun's HP has been adjusted from 80,000 to 50,000 and reduced attack power and speed by 50%. It will be easier to clear than before.

[Live Patch]Monster balancing Adjustment(Early Access 3 week_0.1.5v Patch)
We've prepared a total of 25 patch lists.(Go to Patch Note!) 1.Bose monster WATCHER balance adjustment. Reduced HP from 150,000 to 80,000 and reduce all attack damage by 50%. 25% reduction in the speed of movement for Watcher and Watcher Summoners. It will be easier and faster to get rid of Watcher than before.
2.Bose monster BIG STONE balance adjustment. Reduced HP from 300,000 to 100,000 and reduce all attack damage by 50%. It will be easier and faster to get rid of Big stone than before.
3.Make the runes. Random skills and weapons are obtained from the tombs of aliens. It may take a long time to get the desired skills and weapons. So we added skills and weapons to the manufacturing list.
4.Add visual effects to the tomb of alien. Exploring other tombs of alien can get a variety of skills and weapons. So we've added visual effects to make it easier to find the tomb of alien on the planet. You can get high-grade weapons or skills from the graves in the deeper underground.

Hello, Adventures!
It's the third week of RE:OZMA's Early Access launch!
We've solved some of the early entry barriers with patches up to the previous version of 0.1.4, and we're going to continue to improve on your feedback.
In this 0.1.5 patch, we are trying to polish the beginning of the main content.
First, we have been doing balance adjustment related to 2 major boss monsters, runes, and items, and have modified major bugs.
-The human-type character is coming back!
We are preparing to update the alien characters we released in the demo version into the early access build!
In fact, we added an actionable "flame" character to lower the barriers of sandboxes, but we think it was a choice that reduced the choices available to players who used to enjoy authentic sandboxes in the demo version.
So we're reviving an alien character with the human form and preparing to play the same version of the demo.
Now, if you're playing an authentic sandbox in RE:OZMA, you can play a fireball character if you're going to play a sandbox with a human-type, action-packed character.
However, additional development schedules are required for the two characters to coexist. As soon as the update schedule is finalized, we will share the development status.
It's likely that another race will be added, If you have any feedback regarding this, please send it via the steam community hub and email.

[Live Patch]Eliminate the entry barrier(Early Access Day +7_0.1.3v Patch)
That's right. We still have a lot to polish. Many opinions and feedback make us a better game. As the members continued to play, we prepared a total of 40 patch lists, looking for bugs and improvements. Our patch will continue next week and the following week. Unless something unusual happens, we try to stabilize the service by patching it every week. The phenomenon of falling underground in the particular terrain that you have reported is being checked internally. Players that have experienced this will be able to help developers solve the problem by sending them the location of the terrain and the behavior when it falls. The main list of patches is as follows, and details can be found by going to the link.
-Tutorial simplified the first startup quest and changed the flow to allow monsters to flock after wearing weapons(0.1.2v patch). Unfortunately, we removed NPC friends to maintain the smooth flow of the quest. (I'm sorry..... I'm sure we'll meet again next time.) The hand of Sauron is immediately given at the start of the first game and the monster is not accessible from the initial sponge area. So once you've logged on to the game, you won't be killed by a monster that's coming right away. -We added game guides to the game on game manipulation and general manufacturing, archaeology manufacturing, inventory expansion, and cracking. Finding and pressing the Question mark button in the game will solve the question!
(RE:OZMA game guide)
(Key Guide) -In addition, detailed guides provided on the web page have been made available directly from the game. (Guided Example Image) -Additional comments: Tutorial, the guide will continue to be polished
We will improve the game's usability from the first screen of the game, character customization, menu settings, item description, and inventory usability. Also, the bugs involved have been modified at the same time.
(Polishing Character Custom)
When using the skill, the frame drops that occurred when the tiles were destroyed have been fixed. Please continue to report this part.
(frame drop improvement)
-Add temporary stop function(ESC Key) -When sand tiles were destroyed, characters often got stuck in the terrain, improving sand fragments to prevent them from flowing down the sand tiles.
-The background color tone has been adjusted to better distinguish the sky and the ground in the Spirit Forest.
-Boss Monster Stone Golem has been added with lighting effects, making it easier to recognize in combat.

Early Access Day +1_About Early Entry Barriers
We wanted to give you a good experience with our game, but on the other hand, we are very sorry for the inconvenience and limitations As we developed games, we focused on technology implementation and content completion of games, and we designed games in a hardcore way. Therefore, we acknowledge that we were unprepared for the initial experience. We don't think this is an excuse, even if it's early access.
We will improve it as soon as possible so that those who have experienced discomfort can enjoy it. So today, we fixed and patched the most urgent things in Patch 0.1.2 that are most disturbing to the game. Next week, we will make a substantial improvement based on the feedback we have received so far.

[RE:OZMA Early Access Annocement]
- Early Access Contents RE:OZMA focus on the '2D Sandbox + Action'. While elements such as digging, crafting, building and housing of sandboxes remain, seek more accessible sandbox games with fast and exciting action. Ultimately, RE:OZMA pursues a hybrid sandbox through a convergence of various game genres. -Character Growth: Character level doesn't exist. The character's soul digs the ground to collect and manufacture various materials or discover items, and as the soul enters the body of a dead alien in the past, and continues to transform. This is the only way for a character to grow.
- Game Community -Early Access operations will be carried out at Steam Community HUB. Move and enjoy each menu. We prepared the game guide for RE:OZMA. It's not perfect yet, but we'll keep updating.
-You can combat five Boss monsters, and you can craft and design more than 200 sandbox objects yourself.
-There are three fellow NPC members. Once you have achieved your colleague NPC, you will be able to obtain valuable material skills, etc. through a quest. -You can collect 22 different skills, and these skills are powerful enough to destroy the terrain without hesitation. Use caution in Sandbox genres as all-terrain can be destroyed. These are powerful skills that can even destroy your house, but if you use them well, you can feel a more realistic hit feel.
-Multiplayer!(Coming soon) Unfortunately, today's multiplayer optimization is more necessary and you can't enjoy it today. We recently changed the character concept and upgraded the action, and we decided to reschedule the multi-play because we needed more optimization work related to this. We will update as soon as possible after optimization. Please look forward to it.
-Discord Server is currently in preparation, and we will invite everyone as soon as necessary.

Upgrade Action with Sandbox RE:OZMA Early Access is coming!
We've learned a lot from the demonstration and crowdfunding. We've been looking back at the time for a year and eight months. We've implemented the elements of Sandbox, we've made new attempts at combining genres. Are we really playing fun? Is our personality enough? We still think that's not enough. How do we solve this problem? So we thought back to the time when we were designing the first game. Our initial project was an accessible game that combined cool action with sandboxes. This is the RE:OZMA prototype of June 2018.
Since then, we've been developing on sandboxes, focusing on implementing classic sandboxes, "basics." And RE:OZMA evolved into a classic(hardcore) sandbox game, not a light. We've implemented multiplayer and combined genres to add our own colors. Space simulation and shooting genre combined. But what we've felt during the months of development and demonstration There's a lack of RE:OZMA-style. In the pursuit of hybrid sandbox games, did we really implement them? Of course, we combined them, but the new genre is concentrated at the end of the game content. From the beginning, users were too far from enjoying their individuality. We realized that this was not enough, and we made a big decision.
So we decided to go back to the beginning and try the game we thought we were going to play, which is, you know, the action that's going to be very quick and cool, in a sandbox. That's why it was born! It's RE:OZMA's new character!
The concept of a character in the early stages of the project was an apathetic character without a body. He was a transformative character.
The hero left alone on RE:OZMA's planet, which has become a graveyard for the dead of aliens due to the great destruction of the universe. Hero's body is all burned down, and the only character left behind is the 'spiritual' who follows the tracks of the dead aliens and explores 'infinite transformation' by combining their bodies and their souls. Story settings and details will be released in the next dev diary. While elements such as exploration, collection, and housing of sandboxes are saved, the way games are played is made more fun through quick and exciting action! That's what RE:OZMA is looking for! This is full version of game playing. [previewyoutube=knQsl4wloj8;full][/previewyoutube]
Early Access schedule, as predicted by crowdfunding, was Q1 2020. How many months will developers make and receive feedback? VS Will we make it public first, and keep getting feedback? We chose the latter. So we decided to boldly move forward with the Early Access schedule. What we felt this time for sure was that we were trapped and made. There seems to have been a lack of verification of 'fun'. So the reason we're developing games is to come up with fun games. We have changed the Steam Store to 'Early Access game' and are currently in the process of screening the Early Access build. As soon as the review is completed, the exact schedule will be announced again. At Early Access, you will now play an actionable character, and content roadmaps will be re-arranged.
Multi-pack purchases are available at itch Funding, so make sure you get this chance! And please leave your feedback if you're playing this demo! We'll make a separate announcement to the forum!
Thank you -Shiftrick-

Hello, Adventurers!
First of all, we would like to extend our heartfelt thanks to the many people who played the demo and gave us feedback. Demo, crowdfunding will be over in a week! (16th Dec.!)
Today we're going to be announcing RE:OZMA's BIG ISSUE!
It's about a Change of Action and Early Access!
-RE:OZMA, is it really what we(developer) want?
We've learned a lot from the demonstration and crowdfunding. We've been looking back at the time for a year and eight months. We've implemented the elements of Sandbox, we've made new attempts at combining genres. Are we really playing fun? Is our personality enough? We still think that's not enough. How do we solve this problem? So we thought back to the time when we were designing the first game. Our initial project was an accessible game that combined cool action with sandboxes. This is the RE:OZMA prototype of June 2018.
Since then, we've been developing on sandboxes, focusing on implementing classic sandboxes, "basics." And RE:OZMA evolved into a classic(hardcore) sandbox game, not a light. We've implemented multiplayer and combined genres to add our own colors. Space simulation and shooting genre combined. But what we've felt during the months of development and demonstration There's a lack of RE:OZMA-style. In the pursuit of hybrid sandbox games, did we really implement them? Of course, we combined them, but the new genre is concentrated at the end of the game content. From the beginning, users were too far from enjoying their individuality. We realized that this was not enough, and we made a big decision.
Decision1. Cool Action with RE:OZMA!
So we decided to go back to the beginning and try the game we thought we were going to play, which is, you know, the action that's going to be very quick and cool, in a sandbox. That's why it was born! It's RE:OZMA's new character!

The hero left alone on RE:OZMA's planet, which has become a graveyard for the dead of aliens due to the great destruction of the universe. Hero's body is all burned down, and the only character left behind is the 'spiritual' who follows the tracks of the dead aliens and explores 'infinite transformation' by combining their bodies and their souls. Story settings and details will be released in the next dev diary. While elements such as exploration, collection, and housing of sandboxes are saved, the way games are played is made more fun through quick and exciting action! That's what RE:OZMA is looking for! This is full version of game playing. [previewyoutube=knQsl4wloj8;full][/previewyoutube]
Decision2. Early Access is coming up in DECEMBER 2019!!!
Early Access schedule, as predicted by crowdfunding, was Q1 2020. How many months will developers make and receive feedback? VS Will we make it public first, and keep getting feedback? We chose the latter. So we decided to boldly move forward with the Early Access schedule. What we felt this time for sure was that we were trapped and made. There seems to have been a lack of verification of 'fun'. So the reason we're developing games is to come up with fun games. We have changed the Steam Store to 'Early Access game' and are currently in the process of screening the Early Access build. As soon as the review is completed, the exact schedule will be announced again. At Early Access, you will now play an actionable character, and content roadmaps will be re-arranged.
-The current demo and crowdfunding run through the 16th!

Thank you very much for being here. And now is the time to need support from backers to prepare for the final build and service. We prepared a lot of things, and it's long. We'd appreciate it if you could read it during your time.

Hello, everyone!
We are pleased to announce a free demo application!
RE:OZMA will launch Indiegogo(Global) campaign on November 25 and Wadiz(KOREA) at the same time! And we started our crowdfunding 'open notice' campaign in Korea(Wadiz) today.
In the meantime, here's a quick video of the commemoration of crowdfunding!
[previewyoutube=0nzxmDQncyY;full][/previewyoutube]
A new trailer released in commemoration of this crowdfunding will introduce the introductory story and main contents of RE:OZMA. In particular, on the newly released shooter genre planet, we have made the first public release of a shooter game map created and played directly on items and materials acquired on the sandbox planet.
(Shooting genre: You can customize your game map, item, tank and so on.

Demo crowdfunding of the RE:OZMA is coming!
RE:OZMA pursues change and challenges every day. The core value is to make it a game what you can enjoy unlimited fun by your choice."
We are pursuing an 'infinitely expandable game' by combining with various game genres on the basic ground genre sandbox. Planets in RE:OZMA can be 'different genre planets'. Each planet has its own genre and you can play the game to suit your purpose and taste. In other words, you can move to another game planet at your own choice, where you can play new games there, or create your own. And an important point! Items and character information obtained from the sandbox are organically linked between the planets, affecting different genres. In addition, we are planning a content plan for one year after launch, and there are other game changes. After the crowdfunding opens, we will see the changes!
The demo build is almost finished. (We got so thrilled! steamhappy) Scheduled to be released in November, only users who have received a pre-application from the next week and completed the questionnaire will be provided with a steam key by e-mail. -Users will receive an admission ticket for private discord development. -This private demo build will only be tested in the sandbox area and will be available in both single and multiplayer. More details on how to participate and announcements regarding the demo will be available next week.
This time it's Crowdfunding's second reward Riozma snapback! Look forward to another reward!
After starting Shiftrik, we seem to meet a lot of things we do first. Crowdfunding is also the first to challenge our lives. The biggest reason for crowdfunding is looking for gamers who can grow together with RE:OZMA. Engaged in the gaming industry, we have met many users, not online or offline. The memory that the users who met 10 years ago remembered and gave sincere advice 5 years ago is still vivid. We thought that crowdfunding would meet this relationship. 'How can we express the fun of RE: OZMA?' 'How can we show our faith?' So we require a lot of trial and error. Now crowdfunding is very important for RE:OZMA. Because we need to complete the game and release RE:OZMA. We have been developing games for 1 year and 6 months, The final polishing and steam launch service is now ahead. We have crowdfunding to prepare for the final gateway. It will be held in Korea(Wadiz) and USA(Indiegogo) in November. We hope you will gather your support and strength to complete RE: OZMA. See you again next week for a demo application! Thank you. Kelly

It's been a long time. We've got a news update in a month.
We will update the situation of RE:OZMA today.
(This is a set of 3 wings, one of the RE:OZMA crowdfunding rewards!)
We've been busy preparing for the demo and crowdfunding at the same time. And
It took more time than our expected development schedule, so we announced this on the last day of October. Unfortunately, we had to reschedule.
We apologize for the delayed notice. It would be appreciated if you would understand our situation.
1.RE:OZMA Changes: Added new genre +1
RE:OZMA pursues change and challenges every day. The core value is to make it a game what you can enjoy unlimited fun by your choice."
We are pursuing an 'infinitely expandable game' by combining with various game genres on the basic ground genre sandbox. Planets in RE:OZMA can be 'different genre planets'. Each planet has its own genre and you can play the game to suit your purpose and taste. In other words, you can move to another game planet at your own choice, where you can play new games there, or create your own. And an important point! Items and character information obtained from the sandbox are organically linked between the planets, affecting different genres. In addition, we are planning a content plan for one year after launch, and there are other game changes. After the crowdfunding opens, we will see the changes!
2. DEMO application will open from next week!
The demo build is almost finished. (We got so thrilled! steamhappy) Scheduled to be released in November, only users who have received a pre-application from the next week and completed the questionnaire will be provided with a steam key by e-mail. -Users will receive an admission ticket for private discord development. -This private demo build will only be tested in the sandbox area and will be available in both single and multiplayer. More details on how to participate and announcements regarding the demo will be available next week.
3. Crowdfunding!
This time it's Crowdfunding's second reward Riozma snapback! Look forward to another reward!
After starting Shiftrik, we seem to meet a lot of things we do first. Crowdfunding is also the first to challenge our lives. The biggest reason for crowdfunding is looking for gamers who can grow together with RE:OZMA. Engaged in the gaming industry, we have met many users, not online or offline. The memory that the users who met 10 years ago remembered and gave sincere advice 5 years ago is still vivid. We thought that crowdfunding would meet this relationship. 'How can we express the fun of RE: OZMA?' 'How can we show our faith?' So we require a lot of trial and error. Now crowdfunding is very important for RE:OZMA. Because we need to complete the game and release RE:OZMA. We have been developing games for 1 year and 6 months, The final polishing and steam launch service is now ahead. We have crowdfunding to prepare for the final gateway. It will be held in Korea(Wadiz) and USA(Indiegogo) in November. We hope you will gather your support and strength to complete RE: OZMA. See you again next week for a demo application! Thank you. Kelly
Dev Diary #9 - RE:OZMA New Demo Trailer!

Dev Diary #8 - Truths and Misunderstandings about RE:OZMA
Hello, everyone First of all, I would like to thank everyone for visiting the RE: OZMA store page. Thank you for your interest. I'm Kelly, CEO of Shiftrick, developer of RE: OZMA. I had a lot of worries and thoughts about writing this. I was afraid. (I wrote several times and erased it repeatedly.) I've seen some users write that RE:OZMA is similar to specific titles. It's very heartbreaking and embarrassing. Because it's not what we intended. But because we have a clue to this, we can't just watch this situation anymore. In the hope of solving our misunderstandings, I write our first post here. Today's posts are long and include GIFs, so please go to Announcement for more details.
RE:OZMA is a Mash-up genre game that combines sandbox and space simulation genres, shooting, roguelike, RPG, platformer. Recently mentioned in Dev Diary # 5, 6, 7, we are constantly looking for our own colors. The biggest reason we started the company is that we want to have fun and play games with our users. 'We want to enjoy the game together with the users, and complete it together'. And I wanted to give you a good experience.
The first thing we talked about as a company after we were established was that we would like to reflect our own image into our game. We wanted to put our unique and freewheeling personalities into our game. In order to create a unique and free game world, we start by searching for the best foundation for it; without being said, it is a sandbox genre. 1)It's embarrassing but it's the first prototype of our game in Jun 2018. (Our game was called 'EXTRA LIFE' at the time.)
It is our situation to challenge the indie game for the first time. Initially, we focused on the implementation of basic dungeons, random terrain, and procedural terrain. 2)2nd Prototype of September 2018
We chose the concept of finding a new life in the vast outer space, aliens as the worldview, where the user and the planet interact. (We will later reveal the hidden story of why we chose aliens and the universe.) 3)3rd Prototype of February 2019
This was the third prototype we developed in a year. We participated in the PAX EAST exhibition with this version. We brought a vast universe of space, the concept of aliens looking for new life into the worldview, where they embody the interaction between users and planets. We decided to take on new challenges through the fusion of 'sandbox' with other genres.
As time went by, we focused on researching and implementing 'sandbox' itself. It wasn't really easy. It was hard to find a sample to reference, and we started to study and find games that were recognized in the genre. Indeed, the games were very great and I don't think it's something we can compare to. In February 2019, we released a video under development at PAX EAST in March with the idea of implementing a sandbox. In fact, we think it was so misleading to disclose this too early stage.
The reason we release our past prototypes and development process is that we are ready to accept any questions or feedback as long as we can resolve the misunderstandings of our users.
Since then, we've been studying different genres (space simulation, shooting, RPG, Platformer) following the sandbox and getting closer to the Mash-up genre. Next month(0ct. 2019), the demo version is coming out. And we removed the controversial videos from Youtube, the Steam store, and the Website. And we're eliminating or changing all the controversial parts of the game. In the future, we will show you a game containing our own colors. This is RE:OZMA's latest version of the main menu loading/Animation and character customization screen. And tutorial quest. (Added on September 5)
If you want to know more about us, If you are interested in us at all, -Please read the Dev diary#7 on the direction and final goal for our game. -The demo builds coming soon. (oct.2019) Please give us feedback after playing our demo. After really playing our game, any feedback is fine. If the game is fun or no / buggy / similar to certain games, please tell us immediately. We will humbly accept and correct. From start to finish, the User is always in the center of Shiftricks game development philosophy. Shiftricks members, who have several years of experience of game development and game service, thinks that the game is completed when users play it together and create its new culture and play. We are never perfect. Your feedback makes us better. We will try not to cause such a controversy again. Thank you.

RE:OZMA is a Mash-up genre game that combines sandbox and space simulation genres, shooting, roguelike, RPG, platformer.

Dev Diary #7 - About Identity of RE:OZMA / Sandbox in renewal
Since the introduction of "RE: OZMA's genre expansion" last month, development work has been ongoing. -Implementation of each genre: We are improving the completeness of our sandbox and space simulation genre. After this development is completed, the next genre will be developed. -Hybrid of the genre : It is a combination of six different game genres, such as sandbox, strategy simulation, RPG, rogue-like, platformer, and shooting. Thus allowing the development of the materials and items acquired by each game genre so that they can be used in other games. -Alpha Testing: The build is currently under construction and will be in alpha testing in September. -Crowdfunding: It is scheduled to launch in September and is in preparation.
We have recently completed illustrations that represent RE: OZMA. We wanted to portray the emptiness, exploration and excitement of the moment as we enter a new alien civilization. We will use this illustration everywhere, on our game, homepage, in the store, on social media. And we will continue to draw illustrations to express our world and story.
Sandbox is the first challenge for us. The biggest reason for Shiftrick's founding and developing games is to provide "fun to play together". To do this, we're taking on a new challenge of mash-up different genres based on the sandbox. It also plans to challenge online network play and even cross-platform.
We founded the company last year, and for a year and half we've focused on the genre of sandbox itself and on implementing the functionality. After researching and referring to an example of an existing sandbox game, we developed the features and systems needed for the 2D sandbox directly with the Unity engine.
The first prototype was demonstrated at PAX EAST 2019 in March this year.
(It was a first game show to us)
Since opening the steam store in April, there has been some feedback that it is similar to a certain sandbox game. Of course, that could happen because we studied and referenced 2D sandbox game. And we also developed space simulation, roguelike, a platformer with Unity ourselves. We think this happened because we released the trailer the early stages only about 'sandbox' of development too quickly.
We think that as an indie game developer should be recognized for our individuality and ability. And we want to develop a way of reflecting the way we are in our games. We wanted to put our unique and freewheeling personalities into our game.
We will continue to listen and hear from you and try to improve.
Please give us lots of feedback.
Today we want to introduce some updates of the recent changes in the sandbox side of RE:OZMA. The changes are based on the concept of 'universe', the basis of our story.
3-1. Character Design Progress
We are currently in the process of designing our character and introduce the intermediate process. Various skins will be added.
3-2. New types of tiles Various types of tiles are prepared to match the atmosphere of RE:OZMA's space and aliens. There are about 100 types of tiles currently produced, and we plan to add more in the future.
3-3. Dyeing system We're developing various unique pattern and colors to make your own unique building. Players can dye their tiles by extracting colors from all tiles and consumables in the game.
We face new challenges every day. The biggest reason is to do what we like, and what we like to do is make fun games and share them with a lot of people. To do this, your feedback and opinions are very important. We have a lot of shortages and are never perfect. We need your feedback and feedback to make our games better and more fun. We look forward to your participation and feedback as we develop into a better developer. In fact, to enhance communication with you, I'm going to add a bit of developer comment recording on YouTube today. In fact, I still lack a lot of English, but I study English little by little every day. **We made a video of everything we introduced above. Today I added my first comment today on Youtube.
Thanks Kelly

Dev Diary #6 - Dev progress of space simulation
We released last week about RE:OZMA's new genre expansion and our team continue to develop it. RE:OZMA is a Mash-up genre game that combines 2D sandbox with, strategy, space simulation, shooting, roguelike, RPG, and platformer genres.
Today we're going to share pixel art and programming news related to space simulation. Let's start!
When the players explore space, they encounter tens of thousands of scattered antimatter. The amount of antimatter depends on the location of the space. This antimatter is taken as a base material for everything that is produced in the space, such as gas, units, buildings, and so on.
And players can install defense facilities and gas stations to defend their planet.
And the player will be able to produce units for attacking, conquering, and defending other planets. More details can be found in the full development video. https://youtu.be/y7k7kpM0aIA
1)Pixel art of RE:OZMA's new units In space, players can combine food, gas, and antimatter to create various units. We will create a variety of units to give them variety in battle.
2)Progress in development of unit deployment & combat
Units are used in various combat strategies. Players will be able to build structures to defend their planets with various materials from the sandbox and attack them. Our developer creates the terrain temporarily, and players can create any kind of creatures to defend.
If you want the full version, you can see through RE:OZMA YOUTUBE! https://youtu.be/Em6kV10L2bg Thank you for reading the long post. We will come with news of the new development of RE:OZMA. Kelly.

Dev Diary #5 - Expansion of RE:OZMA
The beginning of the first development of RE: OZMA began with "being an alien, looking for a new extraterrestrial life in the space, evolving and growing and finding the meaning of its existence". We've tried to develop new attempts to combine/mix different game genres in order to develop these game design. And the first step to realizing our ultimate goal was 'Sandbox'. As we've been developing hard to implement sandbox for nearly a year and a half, we've been sharing the progress of the development of our game's sandbox genre,(It was our first time to develop a sandbox, and it was a huge trial and error. Fortunately, the result is now visible.) So, many people have thought of it as a 'RE: OZMA = Sandbox game'. It is because we have been lacking in communication about the direction and purpose of our game. sorry.
The sandbox is part of RE: OZMA, but not all.
So today we're going to have time to explain the big picture/outline of the game RE: OZMA to solve the misunderstanding a little bit. Of course, we think it is not enough at once, and we will continue to share our progress.
We want to implement the very complex interactions there is a huge space. So, we thing that the game play pattern and aspect are also complex and diverse. As a result, we wanted to combine different game genres. This is a diagram of RE:OZMA's crossover game genre.
Users will have to defeat the Hero and his army in order to bring him to the users home planet, where he will reside. By taking full advantage of resources, mercenaries, and strategies, the hero protects the player's planet and strengthens it. In outer space, other players will have their own planets with their unique set of heroes that can be used for multiplayer activities. Users can also expand their control by conquering other players' planets. Space combat is a simulation battle, and heroes can be very useful at this time. They will defend the player's planet and possessions. In addition, multiple planets can be used to invade and attack other players and steal their possessions. This is a prototype of screenshot and gif, short movie.

We wanted to expand the genre of RE:OZMA while exchanging feedback with you.We are currently developing an alpha-beta version which will be open to you. The goal is to explore the boundless possibilities that can arise from many variables and user interactions and feedbacks. In August, we are launching the first pre-alpha test in RE:OZMA. In order to finish RE:OZMA, we are planning on continuing Indiegogo fundraising. We are designing games for various experiences through RE:OZMA. You will enjoy our game if you are willing to adventure across the planet, universe and genres. Thank You Kelly

Dev Diary #3-RE:OZMA Multiplayer
RE:OZMA is a sandbox and multiplayer game. Due to the nature of the genre, the map will be modified real-time and at random, so that all the connected users would update the information without any delay. To solve this problem, we have developed a method to compress map information to the maximum extent. So multiple people could join and play together. After a long period of developing, we finally succeeded in developing and now users can play crafting, building, combat, and PVP together. Of course, we'are still on our way. We have to test and modify/polish as many people as possible into the map.
We have taken a short demo video, and release it. Thanks Kelly

Due to the nature of the genre, the map will be modified real-time and at random, so that all the connected users would update the information without any delay. To solve this problem, we have developed a method to compress map information to the maximum extent. So multiple people could join and play together. After a long period of developing, we finally succeeded in developing and now users can play crafting, building, combat, and PVP together. Of course, we'are still on our way. We have to test and modify/polish as many people as possible into the map.
(Pre-alpha test is going to be done soon, and we will announce it again.)
We have taken a short demo video, and release it. Thanks Kelly

Dev Diary #2-RE:OZMA Development Updates
-A race against time of map generation & Random terrain generation being developed RE:OZMA game map size is huge, random terrain. Therefore, our first concern was the long time it takes to generate the map. Fortunately, we solved that problem. But we had to face issues related to mountain barriers as well as ensuring random terrains were created smoothly. Today's key theme is "to make sure that the terrain we want is created properly when we dig it. Although we originally had developed this feature, we now had to redevelop it. A persisting problem is that boundary regions are awkward and difficult to organize naturally. We are still in this state and planning to solve this part in the future. The map image size below is part of the image we are actually developing. We are developing a much larger map than the map size we are seeing. Let's go Youtube! (More detailed trailer) https://youtu.be/5Nxgn2Dna8s
With various acquisition methods (routing and production), you are able to acquire and produce various kinds of weapons. Weapons include swords, blunt weapons, axes, pickaxes, guns, crows, magic staff, and wizard wands. For example, the grid below represents a weapon arsenal in our game, and we would like to emphasize that gamers may create their own weapon arsenals using the methods mentioned above.
Do you remember the Ice Golem that was released last time? Now, Ice Golem has been brought to live and is moving through the hands of graphic designers and developers. This is an Ice Golem AI pattern. If you want to see more detail Ice Golem pattern movie. let's go Youtube! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wApzU6jG26E

First Greetings! Opening RE:OZMA on STEAM Store!
[ 2019-04-29 06:26:02 CET ] [ Original post ]
Hello everyone!!!
We are very honored to have opened our RE:OZMA Steam Store and delighted to release the first Dev Diary.
RE:OZMA Booth trailer @PAX EAST 2019
RE:OZMA is our first game and SHIFTRICK is an indie game studio that was established in 2018.
We have been developing space-themed 2D pixel graphics PC adventure sandbox game RE:OZMA for the past one year, weve been trying to implement core concept and form of a game.
In March 2019, we revealed our first demo build at PAX EAST 2019. In fact, there were a lot of fears before going to the game show, Sincere interest and feedback will be a driving force for us to continue to attract RE: OZMA.
Come back to our home, we continue to develop the game based on feedback from many people. During PAX EAST 2019, we released about 10% of our overall contents through demo build. We wish we could have shared more with the users that we prepared.
Now, the biggest obstacle we have to overcome is the multiplayer feature. RE:OZMA provides single and IP plays on fundamentally multi-play environment to maximize the fun from playing together. It provides a world chat system where players can randomly meet in RE:OZMA Cosmo space, communicate and play with other players in their planet when they are online. Also if player wants to, player can Invite friend to the players planet.
Our Motto is "If you want, you can do everything". There isnt a given path in RE:OZMA. That means, it has a high level of freedom and it is a game where player create their own playing style.
If you are a user who is ready to play the game depends on players style and preference such as action, adventure, community, sandbox and others, they can all be a user of RE:OZMA. But we believe user who has the will to pioneer their own goal and path by setting their own goal will enjoy RE:OZMA much more.
We want to make a world of RE:OZMA with you.
We will continue to share our progress, information, our thinking through the Steam community here.
Thank you
Kelly

RE:OZMA: The adventure has begun to find new creature!
RE:OZMA is a 'Hybrid Sandbox Game' that based on 2D sandbox, combined with strategy and space simulation, shooting, roguelike, RPG, platformer. It is inspired by the first SETI (Search for Extra-Terrestrial Intelligence) the project launched by US National Radio Astronomy Observatory in 1968. Based on wide space, players become an ‘Alien Creature’ and own a planet, to encounter countless stars randomly, develop its planet, ultimately create its own world, and to find the meaning of its existence.
Features:
The core concept of RE: OZMA is ‘autonomy’, ‘fusion’ and ‘entertainment’; it is a game where a gamer is finding the meaning of one’s being in the space while raising its character and surviving through the unknown world by meeting and connecting with other beings.
Each character gets their own unique planets, randomly meets endless stars in the cosmos and encounters many events and situations while cultivating and developing its living planet. Also, each character will run into different ‘creatures’; they sometimes live together, fight against the being (enemy) that destroys life, and conquer the planet. Players will cultivate and protect their own planets by using their full capability of survival instinct. Through these adventures, finally, the player will grow and rediscover himself.
1. If you want, everything is possible!
First when the user logs into the game, they will customize each of their characters and planets. Then, the user will enter the world map; here, there are many planets. Not only ones created by each player, but also various UFOs, metal planets, fire planets, snow planets, gas planets, NPC planets with different concepts, and event planets. Each planet is rotating and orbiting in random order and each planet’s difficulties are all different. The user can choose the planet they want to enter.2. Creating One’s Own World! "Field!"
When the user enters their own planet, they really start to build their ‘sand castle’: creating their world in a sandbox format. RE: OZMA’s planets are formed with random fields, created from random algorithm, and instant fields that are connected to the field.
![]()
-- Plays that the user can do on the field
First, the field provides Moding environment; it allows the user to collect, craft, grow, install, fish, and housing. The player can experience “Collect”, “Boast”, and “Multi-play and help” on-field contents; Also, since the field allows combat mode, the user can create their own unique game world by modifying the terrain just like building a sandcastle. Once the user builds storage, it increases the inventory space; when the user expands the house, the NPCs will visit, and the player can place various trophies in their house from hunting bosses. When other players visit the user’s world, the user can share everything with that player.
Also, during the field event, occurring under special circumstances, it will provide a unique experience and unique items that no one else has.
-- Field’s background & interaction with weather effect
Re: OZMA’s background within the planet allows the player to utilize every space: ground, sky, underground and the cosmos. The ground, sky, and underground allows the user to build and destroy anything at their will; meanwhile, space is mostly for adventuring.
Every weather effect such as snow, rain, wind, storm, and others are created to interact with the user. When the wind blows, the player will have a hard time moving due to wind’s resistance. When it rains, it will limit the player’s vision; when it snows, it will make the player hard to move due to them slipping. Also, the game environment changes based on the flow of time from morning to night and depends on the character’s behavior (ex. Use of Skill), the terrain change follows.

3. Creating One’s Own World! "Crafting"
The player can craft various items by combining hundreds of materials. Every item in the game can be used as material to build something: minerals, soil, stone, and sand from mining underground; trees, grass, flowers, and a piece of wing from a monster.
Buildings that are beneficial to the user will get targeted by the monsters (enemy); to protect them, the player may have to build terrets.
3) Spontaneous meeting and trading with other players
RE:OZMA provides single and IP play. Moreover, to maximize the ‘joy from playing with others’, it provides multiplayer mode and provides world wide chat. This allows players to randomly meet among RE:OZMA planets. They can trade, and the player can enter and play together in other player’s planets when that player is logged in.

Why is the game name RE: OZMA?
RE:OZMA is inspired by the first SETI (Search for Extra-Terrestrial Intelligence) project. It was launched by the US National Radio Astronomy Observatory in 1968. Even in 2019, the ‘Project OZMA’is still on going after many trials by lots of scientists for the past several decades. We decided to call our game “RE: OZMA”, combining the word “RE” and “OZMA", because we were inspired by many people’s entrepreneurial spirit towards project OZMA and its history.
