Hello, everyone! We've just completed an intense and exciting development phase. This update reveals a host of new features, from significant enhancements to Rayne's fluid movement to deeper interactions with the game's dark, captivating world.
Here is a look at the latest innovations from the team:
I. Vaulting
We focused on improving Rayne's movements both visually and mechanically. To maintain the game's pace and enrich vertical gameplay, we integrated the Vaulting mechanic into the system. Rayne can now traverse obstacles much more fluidly.
II. Interaction with the World and Animations
The feeling that the world is a living, responsive place is hidden in the details. Not just combat, but interacting with the environment is now much more satisfying. We added special animations for various interactions:
Pressing buttons,
Flipping switches,
Actions like scanning cards now happen with instant and fluid animations.
III. Combat and Healing: Inhaler
Combats will be challenging, and you will need to recover when you take damage. We developed an "Inhaler" system suitable for the game's atmosphere for the healing mechanic. That mechanic will be a critical part of your survival struggle which will allow you to catch your breath in the middle of the action.
IV. Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Behavior States
We don't want enemies to be just bots that attack when they see you. We have significantly advanced the "State" (Behavior States) system in our work on artificial intelligence and are currently in the polishing phase. Especially with Idle and Trigger animations, enemies react to what's happening around them much more naturally.
V. Atmosphere and New Levels
And finally... Scenes that will tell our story. We aim to tell the game's deep narrative as much through the locations themselves as through dialogues. We designed new levels that will draw you in with their atmosphere and contain a detail in every corner.
Your opinions are very important to us! Don't forget to let us know what you think about the new mechanics and atmosphere in the comments.
Stay tuned, much more is on the way! Demonsoft Games Team
