I've planned 2 content updates for Maniac in the upcoming few weeks:
UPDATE 1 (this week or next week)
- Playable Moments - a new feature which enables anyone to replay anyone's moment during gameplay. This means you can save a highlight of your gameplay and then share that moment with the community. For example you destroyed 5 tanks in 30 seconds with Santa. You can let others replay that moment and let them beat your score - to destroy 7 tanks in 20 seconds - for example. More on this in the update!
- Most critical bug fixes - auto-aim issues, controller issues, menus and upgrade issues.
UPDATE 2 (in about 4-5 weeks)
This update will focus on the much missing Steam features content:
- Steam Achievements - a lot of new stuff to do!
- Steam Workshop -
- an easy way to play new maps created with the editor
- ability to play modified pursuit levels (order and amount of pursuit vehicles)
- Steam Trading Cards
- New game modes
- Hard Mode - available after beating the game with all characters
- Score Attack - pursuit levels come in based on damage not time
MOST IMPORTANT UPCOMING BUG FIXES:
- Auto-fire and auto-aim fixes
- Menu bugs with controller
- Blue screen / tank physics bugs
- Most Wanted upgrade breaking the end game
- Auto-pickup issues
- Upgrades with high level of upgrade issues
As far as the future goes... it depends on you!
I'm open to suggestions. Please be vocal on Discord and Steam forums.
I'm reading and taking notes on what's coming next for Maniac!
Have fun!
