Hello again!
We hope that the Building Trailer that we showed you a couple of days ago left you wanting more… Because we’ve got more!
During the ‘quiet and busy’ period of the last 2-3 months, we added a lot of new elements into the game, as well as gave the existing ones a little bit more polish. One of the things you might have seen already is the Acid Biome. We played it a couple of times during our streams, but it was just a couple of tiles and it didn’t have its own identity. As the new props poured in and our prefab system started working, we could finally give this biome some much-needed love and attention. You can see it in the video below. There are more interesting things there, too!
Grenades are now a thing in The Riftbreaker and they come in many flavors! First of all, we have the classic, hand-thrown grenades. Operating them is pretty simple - you point where you want to throw them with the crosshair and press the button. Mr. Riggs will lob the grenade to that area. If an enemy is hit, it will explode on the spot. If you miss, the grenade will keep on rolling for a while and explode eventually.
We also have a grenade launcher ready! You can craft it just like any other weapon, at four quality levels that will affect the properties of the weapon. The way you use the grenade launcher is a little different. Holding the fire key will project a crosshair on the ground that moves away from you as you hold the trigger. Once you release the trigger, the launcher will fire. It’s a little more tricky, but the special properties and modability of the weapon make up for that.
Now it is time for the cherry on the top of this explosive cake. X-Morph: Defense veterans might recognize this weapon - Gravity Grenades. When it comes to technique, they are just like regular grenades - you point where you want to throw them. The difference is that they explode immediately upon landing, creating a small black hole that will damage and suck in all debris in its radius. The effects can be quite spectacular, especially if you combine a couple of them together!
