[h2]Hi![/h2] A lot has changed in this period of silence. The Purge Dilemma has seen a drastic change, both in terms of graphics and gameplay. Following a series of playtests we have managed to uncover many inconsistencies in terms of gameplay, from unbalanced mechanics all the way to non-engaging features. But these will be explained in next week's developer update. The same applies to artistic design choices - everything has been re-made to more fit the comedic theme of what was initially intended for the game, and this is what we will focus on in this developer update. [h3]Character Models and Portraits[/h3] [img]https://i.imgur.com/6jI0gP1.png[/img] Let us start with the character models. Here's the Tyrant! [img]https://i.imgur.com/sdxfyDT.png[/img] Such a goofy looking pig. And for the poor men who must suffer his wrath...

Except for the Foreigner. He has decided to be a goat. [img]https://i.imgur.com/fg1ctey.png[/img] With them, the decree portraits have also been changed! If they become pigs, so does everybody else. Just to show a few examples: [img]https://i.imgur.com/sQWFhKB.png[/img] [img]https://i.imgur.com/36C1EV9.png[/img] Looking good, isn't it?

Furniture now sits around, sprinkling some environmental storytelling there and there.

Sitting in your chair you can enjoy a look around. [h3]Trailer[/h3] We have also blessed the front page with a brand new trailer. Fully re-done, including a good short introduction to the Tyrant's paranoia aswell as mixing in some raw gameplay footage. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mc4gZrnyDZU [b]A reminder to everyone that the game will be available to play the next Steamfest in June 2023![/b] [b][h2]Thank you for reading this Developer Update.
