SALUTATIONS, Villagers!
THE MEDIC ARRIVES IN EVILLE
Let’s be honest, Eville has been having its fair share of deaths, illness, and well… more deaths. But fear not! Introducing our latest role, The Medic! The medic plays a vital role in keeping the people of Eville alive and breathing. One of the medics most prominent abilities is their passive ability. This ability protects all players within their aura from assassinations during the day. Healing is an ability that is important not only for the medic but Villagers who may have been hurt over time in Eville. Medics can fully heal Villagers if they are below 25% health. Additionally, the medic can also check the current health of players to prioritize who needs healing. This can also be used to expose Conspirators who have been injured at night! Lastly the Medic can rest easy knowing they have 50% poison resistance meaning more time to care for others without having to worry so much about themselves.
REELING IN NEW QUESTS
We’ve added three new quests in Eville! Two of these quests involve going into other player homes adding suspicion to all players. Remember to always check on a true player's intention when entering someone's home. These two quests involve destroying evidence in someone's home and vandalizing another player's home by covering it in paint! Then get your fishing lines ready! We’ve included a long awaited fishing quest! Even better, you can freely fish by picking up one of the rods on the dock!
THE BEGINNING OF THE SEASON
In this update we’re introducing our Season System. Players can earn levels and progress through the season by playing, completing challenges, and logging in daily! You’ll earn XP and silver coins by playing! Silver coins will always be a free currency you can collect and use to unlock cosmetics in the store. Levels award you with all kinds of different cosmetic items. As for the Eville Pass, there will be items available to only Eville Pass holders with some of the content being free to those who don’t have the pass. We want to make note that all content included in the Eville Pass is of cosmetic nature.
Speaking of cosmetics we’ve added new items in the equipment screen including more emotes, Badges, and even different loading screens! Oh and we’ve added some Tavern music for everyone to enjoy before starting your game!
MORE PHYSICS!
Getting onto the more technical side of Eville, we’ve updated the animation system bringing in more fluid and realistic movement for characters. This adds some fancy physics for some characters like floppy ears,tails and clothing. The UI has also taken on some small changes like cleaning up and modernizing the end game screen. We’ve also added player options to mute, change the volume of players, add friends, and sooooon the ability to report players.
