Dear captains,
How about being up to date with all the latest contents and information?
Do you think it's hard to keep up?
Then be sure to check this AMA!
... say hello to this nice robot, from a corporation you don't know anything about yet!
But this blog post is not about him. (do we say him? it? that?)
It's about our community, and their questions!
Check this out:

About our AMA
AMA stands for "Ask Me Anything".
Earlier in December, our community asked some questions in our discord.
We selected 10 questions and answered to them in full detail!
Check the video above to find out details about a new card (the Corporate Boss) and multiple mechanics or topics. There will be other blog posts about colony assets and colonization, so I did not pause much on that.
But maybe you'll find our secret element placed in this video?
It reveals a very little thing about colony assets ;)
About Mysterious Cards
Mysterious cards are cards sponsored by players. These cards will have a custom art and custom mechanics. We were a bit late in releasing their contents but all of them will be revealed somewhere within next weeks, once colonization is playable.
In this AMA the first mysterious card - the Corporate Boss - is revealed to you all, and new ones will be as soon as art and mechanics are well set.
These legendary cards are very powerful cards meaning that they provide interesting options. they don't break the game or anything, but they really make some of your own adventures opened to new paths. The Corporate boss, for instance, has 2 bound passengers - who stick to his cabin and are automatically added without taking any room on your ship - and other details you'll notice on its card in this video!
If you want yours...
Cryptoeater actually took two art sponsor packages and does not want to use the second one for himself. This means he is interested in proposals for the second package. We of course do not manage this situation ourselves at all, so if you are interested in this you may get in touch with @cryptoeater himself for all details (he usually is there on our Discord!).
The two next Mysterious cards to be revealed are the Mysterious AI and the Mysterious Robot. Again, we thank the players who sponsored these cards: @digital-wisdom and @apprentice001 !
What is coming next?
As covered in this AMA, our next content is all about colonization!
There are a number of planned updates which we paused while doing our R&D on colonization topics. The postponed items include an achievements update and some evacuation fixes; all will be resumed soon.
But more importantly, we have made big progress on our next colonization update, our big priority at the moment.
Our screen previews are no longer 'still pictures' and are going to be a recording with live interaction, meaning the scripts are working, meaning every day gets it closer to being playable. Of course it's not ready yet, as it's an immense thing, but it's really coming along nicely.
Enjoy your holidays!
We hope you enjoyed this AMA session!
But it's not the only thing EXODE coming your way soon.
There may also be a fun event which we are setting up for the end of this year - keep tuned or join us on Discord as we'll share more when it's ready ;)
Here's a hint... :D
I hope you'll be there and ready for this party event!
... thank you again for listening to our AMA.
I know there is a lot of french accent and some video or audio imperfections here and there... but I can tell I was very happy to deliver you this content, and to make it before Christmas.
Wishing you a Merry Christmas, as well!
====================================================================
More information about EXODE can also be found on our website, our Discord, or multiple posts such as this one about our epic characters, or this trailer made by a fan, or this review or this one . A summary of latest posts and events is also here.
Also running a witness node:

See you soon in eXode!
eXollent!
Loving that Corporate Boss drawing, who is the artist?, the card is awesome.
The artist is @shinoxl !
Of course, who else could be. Great, this card is a good candidate for another award.
Great AMA, commander! Thanks for answering our questions!
Lovely to hear your French accent and very interesting insights on Exode and life in France under COVID restrictions.
I look forward to more interesting reveals (esp Mysterious AI or which I have 2).
I can't wait until colonisation is playable - that's the part I've really been looking forward to.
Evacuation is stressful (but necessary).
I hope colonisation will be challenging but more relaxed from a time perspective.
