v0.2.0 • Interface Update

May 11, 2026

N.T.D.C. Interface Overhaul

A focused development pass on the Phoenix Vector front-end experience, introducing the new N.T.D.C. visual language and correcting the start button flash issue.

Overview

Version 0.2.0 marks the beginning of a stronger, more unique visual identity for Phoenix Vector. This update introduces a unified N.T.D.C. interface style built around darker themed military sci-fi panels, gold command interface accents, sharper button look and action, and a more deliberate presentation layer.

What Changed

  • Introduced the new congruent N.T.D.C. menu styling.
  • Updated button presentation to better match the command interface theme.
  • Fixed the start button flash bug during menu transitions.
  • Continued moving Phoenix Vector toward a stronger branded visual identity.

Development Notes

The original interface direction helped establish the foundation of the game, but the new N.T.D.C. direction gives Phoenix Vector a clearer identity. This pass is less about decoration and more about creating a recognizable command-layer style that can carry through menus, codex entries, patch notes, screenshots, and future systems.

Next Objectives

Upcoming work will continue expanding this visual language while improving the game’s presentation, adding more screenshots, refining the front-end flow, and preparing the next internal testing build.
