Hello there Officers!
Are you ready? Ready for Riot? In this short devlog i will tell you a some basics rules of this game!
Remember our Prison Simulator game? Ofc you do ;)
Remember a riot event that can occur if your prisoner's respect is low?
Probably yes - every correctional officer remembers his first prison riot ;)
It was fierce and nice action oriented event, don't you think? ;)
We had fun setting it up and neutralizing inmates - it was so different from other , let's call it "static" prison guard's routines. Also we noticed that you - the Players - very liked this riot event so we decided: "why not make a full game just with prison riots :D "
Some details about Ready for Riot
In this game you will take a role of a member of special police assault group and your main goal will be
to take over a prison from rioting prisoners. Why so many USA prisons have constantly riots nowadays? Maybe this is somehow connected? You need to solve this case too ;)
But this game will me more action-oriented than story-oriented. So call your friends, it's game time!
You can play alone but we will design it to better play coop mode. Currently we will try to make it up to 4 players but it can change.
Four players means four different aproach: 4 is classic "team number". There will be some minor and major changes between character's classes like you know a one with shield, a DPS and healer. Of course every player can use tools that suit them perfectly but some classes will be better at this and that ;)
Prisoners in riots will try to suprise you from every corner - well they spend some years in this facility, they now this buliding better than anyone else ;) You must be aware of traps and being ambushed and also remember that prisoners can steal some dangerous tools from workshop and use them against you! Also some of them will even carry guns stolen from guard's towers and rifle range!!
Your main objective will be neutralise all dangerous prisoners but... you know it's sounds actually horrific! They are still human beings, right?
We still are wondering how to develop this. We got some ideas like two types of ammo - lethal and non-lethal. Non-lethel will do less damage and knocked out prisoners can wake up. And lethal - well you know, nobody wake up from shot in the head. And neutralising inmates with non-lethal will be more scored but harder to achieve. But it's still in tests so it will probably change.
There will of course some more info soon ;)
