I agree that it would be nice to wait until the full visual update is done, but that be another 3 months - given that the artist isn't working full time on the project and neither am I (also working on a PhD in physics). The game is mostly bug free and the demo is playable via the discord. The core gameplay loop is implemented and has been for a while - and feedback is good. I'm just a guy trying my best to do what I love :) The next video will be about the menu systems, but since I normally give a brief intro about the game before going into the devlog, I'll try to open with some gameplay footage.

Maybe you're right though? If the audience only cares about gameplay footage (even if the visuals are in the abstract / prototyping phase), maybe it's best to show that first? I'm pretty new to the youtube game, and have never done open development before, so I'm not an expert, and don't pretend to know how to do this properly. You know, to keep the video focused and have the visuals match the narration. Since this video is about the lore, art, and world of the game, it made sense to show less gameplay, and more about the rest. If I started with gameplay footage now, people would look at the game in a few weeks when the visuals are updated and not even recognize it, and I finally found an artist for contracting work and settled on an art style for the game, which means that in the next few weeks, everything visual about the game is going to change.
