Update 01 is finally here! I've had such a blast watching and playing the game with the community on discord. I truly can’t express how happy I am to keep working on Forecursed and putting out updates like this one. Thank you to everyone who gave it a chance and took the time to try it out!
This update brings more content to the game as well as bug fixes and some balancing tweaks.
What's New:
- New map: Station
Dodge deadly trains and navigate through this dark, foggy level that takes place entirely outside.
- New items: Taser, Paintball gun, B. Eagle and Net Trap
Taser: A standard taser that will stun whoever gets hit. Risky, but it can save your life.
Paintball gun: Shoots fluorescent paint, it will leave a mark.
B. Eagle: A powerful handgun with a powerful recoil.
Net Trap: It catches whoever steps on it in a big net, effectively turning them into a Piñata
- New ghoul: Balloon
A small creature that can launch its tongue and propel itself towards its target. If it latches on to you, you better find something to take it out before it's too late.
What Changed:
- Slightly buffed the curse's melee attack. It should be easier to land now.
- Same with the Golem's melee attack
What should be fixed:
- Getting frozen while cursed, sprinting and out of stamina will no longer drain your health
- the ice chunk formed by the freeze ray follows players more accurately
- Fixed a bug that allowed players to clip outside levels using the rake
- Catching someone with the cursed leap at close range now attaches players properly
- Fixed loosing the ability to use the curse's melee attack if the animation got cancelled
My next focus:
I will now shift my focus on an important part of development that needs a lot of love: Optimization. I believe that there is a lot that can be done to improve this game's performance. I will be planning more content as well, but I'd love to stabilize everything before moving forward.
As always, if you want to find a group to play with, you can join the Forecursed Discord where I am hosting games 3 times a week. See you there!
