Hey everyone!
Our apologies for the long wait between posting any info on updates.
We are pleased to announce that we just added some new content, on top of some small updates we released since the Early Access release.
In our current update, we added a new door boarding system, which allows a family member to pick up boards, and board up doors using tab.
The intruder will be slowed down by this, as they need to either shoot the door 5 times, or hit the door 10 times, to remove the boards.
The boards are a secondary item, which can be used alongside melee weapons. This will hopefully allow for a more balanced game play, as the family will now have more ways of hiding from the intruder.
In the first month since release, we have also fixed / added some small stuff:
- Misplaced hammer showing up when using melee weapons removed.
- Kid character should not glitch around anymore when crouching.
- When playing 1v1, family member takes 4 shots to kill instead of 2.
- Added realtime lighting in home corridors.
- Increased flashlight projection size.
- Better ambient intensity to make players slightly more visible.
Currently, there are still quite some things to fix to make the gameplay less clunky. From what we have gathered in the first month,
here are the things that we want to hopefully fix in the next update:
- No more aim down-sight only fire.
- Change melee hit mechanic, so player swings baseball bat when clicking instead of having to hold down LMB.
- Fix player head hitbox.
- Fix text chat system, such that when pressing esc, you can exit typing.
- Add closing and boarding mechanic to outside doors.
- Extend settings menu
On top of that, we are also currently modeling our next map, which we are very excited about.
We apologize for the lack of updates, we will try to bring out some more regular updates in the coming weeks.
Please let us know of any ideas or stuff that you would want to see fixed / changed! We would really appreciate to hear what you want
to see in this game.
