Hi there guys. Finally just finished the update, all said and done there's around 45 new sound effects added with this patch.
The Cultists make new noises when attacking, as opposed to the silence before, this means stuff like the Spells casted and the Bull rush attack. Environment interaction now has sound effects added as well, "the Bone Crusher" in the Sacrifice Room now how has a proper SLAM impact , rather than silence... Hadriex will be hopefully pleased to know the Boop sound has returned. I can go into more detail, but there's no need at the moment. This is bitter sweet exciting for me, for the first time in years it really feels like this project is coming together. I hope there are some folks out there who still want to see that happen, and that the long silent state without updates did not permanently murder the newly thriving fan base. I'm here to stay this time. The updates will be continuous until this Episode is shambling on it's own two feet, and it wouldn't be the same without you guys to share it with. And thank you to all the ghouls lurking off in the dark quietly watching. I know there's a few, and you make my world go round.
I spent a decent amount of time trying to program the door opening sound effect, but that one is unfortunately going to have to come in the following patch.. as it is causing some weird issues and I didn't want to hold this train up any longer. Zombies still need sound effects but that will be coming soon as will all of the Cultists voice effects.
On top of the new sounds there is now an Icon Key screen. Which basically just shows the meaning of all the icons you will come across during the game. I had wanted to do this, but a shout out belongs to RocketPunch! for bringing it back to my attention, so thanks. Also , locked environment locations in the game display a Lock Icon instead of a Brown Eyeball Icon.
Music is still coming, and soon. I promise. I want it integrated properly with the menus, death and reward screens. So those have to be nice and decent first.
There's lots more to come, including explosive weapons, some guns, and more hidden secrets to discover. As before I will update my work layout for the week on this ever so upcoming Monday. So please keep an eye out and drop by once in a while.
Cheers,
