Our weekly news blast is back, bringing you all the latest from the world of Broken Lines!
Physics and Bug Hunting
If you’ve been following us for a while, you may have noticed that quite a few of the bugs that we’ve been sharing seem to be related to the game’s physics.
We wanted to figure out why some of the soldiers turn into ragdolls when they are killed (they would twitch all over the place and randomly fly into the distance). So our Lead Programmer placed a model inside some carefully positioned walls to try and trigger the bug.
As you can see, we were able to reproduce the bug, which makes fixing it so much easier!
The Return of the Dev Diary
The fifth Broken Lines dev diary has just been published!
In this edition, we focus on the primary weapons and their abilities. Each primary weapon has a normal auto-fire mode and a special ability that the player has to manually activate.
Broken Lines Community and Beta
We are looking for beta testers to play through the game, find bugs and tell us what you feel needs improving.
If you think you are up to the task, sign up here for a chance to get into the beta program!
Please note, signing up does not guarantee a beta position as the spaces are limited.
Furthermore, if you want to talk to the developers, get to know the other people playing Broken Lines, or simply want to learn more about the game, join us on Discord today!
