Hello folks! The Baron here, and I'm delighted to be able to deliver on my promise from last time to show you guys the much anticipated and illusive spell: Gravity! KopsY has been silently slaving away in the background but has now let me know that the spell is finished mechanically, but heads up that the graphics including the spawn effect and particles are not finished, so what you are seeing is a WIP.
So, what's it all about? There are very few games out there with a robust telekinesis system and even fewer that make you feel powerful and badass to use it. Dark Messiah was surely one of the few, and it is in this vein of inspiration where B&S Gravity comes in. The general idea is that this spell will allow the player to pick an enemy up, push him, pull him, throw him, and maybe even come up with some more creative punishments. :D
Another element of the spell is the ability to imbue weapons. A weapon that is imbued with gravity becomes weightless, making striking and wielding the weapon easier since the weapon is "lighter".
Enemies that are struck with a Gravity imbued weapon will become temporarily weightless, as teased in the gif from last time.
But now onto the juicy stuff. As mentioned some time ago, one aspect of the spell system is that spells can be merged to form bigger and more powerful spells. Well, you might wonder what happens when you merge Gravity with Gravity - The result is a powerful zone of weightlessness that will trip up enemies and scatter objects, giving you a tactical advantage if surrounded.
Enemies who are caught in the Gravity dome are weightless, which means they can be ragdolled around and punched with tremendous force. All in all, it should lead to some good clean fun.
That's it for the news, folks! I will post higher resolution clips to Reddit (Steam only allows 3mb gif format) and longer videos to Youtube. Here is a nice little video to tide you over. :D Cheers!
