Arena of the Gods v1.6 is now live! Here's a rundown of the changes:
- Vital information
To promote enhanced readability, the player's healthbar now has a background behind it instead of showing the arena through it's empty space. Enemies now have health bars that appear when they take damage and disappear after a few seconds for reduced clutter.
- Eternal life, endless torture
Added a new, tanky demon giant called the Ghast. The Ghast lumbers around slowly, but relentlessly, crushing any opposition under it's slow but mighty fists. The Ghast's slam deals 35% of your current health as damage. The slam's shockwave deals a small amount of flat damage.
- Supersanic
Added a new, speedy flying demon called the saberwing. The Saberwing patrols the arena at high speeds, slicing any would be arena champions to bits with their blade-like wings and fierce wind gusts. The Saberwings fly ahead of the player, preventing him from fleeing their assault by cutting off his escape routes with well timed spin attacks.
- Not the bots you're looking for
Enemies have completely revamped AI, making them react much more intelligently and realistically. Enemies now have object permanence causing them to leave combat after losing track of the player for too long.
- Guiding Light
Improved overall lighting quality. Time of day changes simulate smoother than before. Enemy projectiles give off less light.
- Dusk
Night time is darker than before, making visivility more limited.
- 1000 yard stare
The Caster, Launcher, and Seeker mages' eyes shine much brighter to more accurately reflect their eerie, demonic existence.
- Making me dizzy
Enemies no longer perfectly track the player in combat allowing the player to break their line of sight through motion.
- Water is not wet
The waterfalls in the arena were in the need of some dire TLC, so they're sporting a new look that actually reacts to the time of day and various other lighting changes. Water material improved to look a lot less flattened.
- Extroverted
