Hello everyone, a very short update today to talk about the new mode coming to Rent's Due: The Game in the last update for the game!
The new Mode is called Troll Mode!
In this mode its the core gameplay loop of Rent's Due: The Game. However, things are a lot different at the same time. For example, if you run into some cash it might explode and respawn you? This mode is all about tricking the player and making them laugh a little bit. This mode will not feature every single level as I feel like it could get very repetitive so you will play a total of 6 levels in troll mode. These levels are Level 1, 2, 3, 8, 21 & 26.
Along with this update the game will be getting 2 new achievements relating to the new mode,. The First will be for just playing Troll Mode. The last will be for beating troll mode!
If troll mode does well and the players like it then I might add to it in the future whenever I can.
One last piece of information you guys should know is that Rent's Due: The Game recently moved to Unreal Engine 5. In the new update for the game You will see better shadows, thanks to Nanite I have managed to apply new materials to some foliage in levels, including new tree textures on Level 21, as well as a new platform material on said level.
Also coming is better lighting thanks to lumen, I have tried to optimise this as much as possible but it does come with a slight performance increase on levels that use the new lumen lighting. Levels that don't take advantage of Lumen will use Screen Space Global Illumination instead.
Lastly since Rent's Due has moved to a whole new engine, there may be some bugs and other problems that have slipped through the cracks, If you happen to encounter any issues then please post in the community forums or send an email to [email protected].
I look forward to releasing this final update for the game, I hope everyone has a nice week, see you all on August 26th for the One Year Anniversary!
