I love the concept of the "Eyesight" in Assassins Creed series and its stealth attack. So I am going to implement that here.

The stealth attack will be 1 hit Kill if you can stab the mob from the back.

If you haven't joined our Discord channel, you should! I post screenshots, updates and we all discuss certain features and how they should be implemented in-game. I also send links to private servers to test the game once awhile ;)

With that said, I've been working on AI and skills for the last few days. Here are a few screenshots and a little video showing the current gameplay.

Player Ops Map Editor:


Pokemon encounter

I'm still here, in the shadows, making stuff happen.

The first map in Beware of the Weredude still needs some tweaking and testing but for the most part it is complete. What's left to do is revisiting animal AI, adding more stage exclusive items and adding some new weapon effects(Burning & Bleeding). Burns will light up what they hit periodically, bleeds will lead to permanent debuffs.

What's next? A new map. Maps in BotWD will share some items but have map exclusives. There is also no plan to have two maps share a single character or game mode. With that said, this map will have SEVEN new characters and how these survivors win will be very different to the first. I'm not going to get in-depth about the new mode but it's something to get excited about for sure.

Map 2's specifications

• It will require 7 rather than 4 players.
• NPC's are present to assist survivors.
• There will be two Weredudes rather than one.
• 5/7 Characters are confirmed. "Basic Blonde" is no longer a character. The confirmed batch are a Pop Star, Trucker, Biker, Detective and Horror Movie Villian Parody.
• Not all survivors will interact cooperatively with one another. Sabotage will be a major part of this game mode.
• All survivors will begin in motel rooms and be given their room keys on game start. Different rooms provide different perks. Hope you don't start off in a two bed bedroom and have yourself a potentially dangerous room mate.

I haven't been following this at all, is this some kind of survival horror-y game? X number of players live in Y place whilst Z thing tries to kill them?

Sounds cool if so, and the aesthetic is looking pretty grim too! Best of luck.

Thanks Rushnut! Your concept is pretty spot on. Thing is though, no one knows who Z is until about 10-15 seconds into each game. Rounds start on sundown and once it gets really dark out, a werewolf or two(depending on the map) reveal themselves.

I am hoping that distinguishing factor I will lead to some seriously adrenaline filled gameplay!!

Thanks for the loud sound disclaimer D:!

Looks good, only suggestions I'd have is perhaps a higher framerate, and a different sort of animation/coloring for the lighting.

Rocking side to side, rather than just dimming/brightening might look better. Perhaps with some randomized flicker?

My computer was 50$ off kijiji so I need to keep specs low in order to run my project.(256mb of video ram master race)

With that said, I did try to incorporate a world fps and client fps that differed from one another. I feel like I'm not doing the terminology justice, maybe what I did was different, but what I think I tried was setting world fps to 30 and the client to 60 or vice versa.

The results weren't that great but there's been an update or two since I tried that so I'll test the waters again. The game is currently running on 30 fps, areas with lights tend to drop my fps a little lower then that though.

I LOVE your light ideas though. I was already thinking that I'd have those lights be given random properties, so some will burn out eventually, others flicker, etc. Also I don't know how I'd create the side to side animation, I'm not the greatest with animate() and matrices and so on. Any suggestions?
