Prelude! Shotgun! Missions!
Very pleased to announce a fairly major update to the demo.
No less than three new features!
Prelude!
There is now a completely new pre-prologue section to the game, which we're calling a Prelude because we're running out of words for sections that come before Chapter 1.
Its purpose is to kick off the campaign with a bit of early drama - to provide a taste of what is to come,
Shotgun!
Why didn't the game always have a gun? Somehow it didn't make sense for there to be a gun, but now somehow it does, and so that's the official answer.
Missions!
In addition to the main campaign, you can now play standalone missions. Replay segements from the campaign with different gear or to experiment with a different approach. Or play the TWO NEW CHALLENGE MISSIONS e.g.:
The plan is continue to grow the number of available Missions. There's room for action missions, stealth missions, problem solving missions, challenge missions, missions at new locations etc.
Controller Fix
The update also fixes a controller problem - a deadzone is now implemented.
