[*] SCORING SYSTEM
I grew up playing classic games, high scores were of high importance way back when. I thought it only fair to bring a scoring system into Trigger Saint. You can now keep track of your in game score as your play through story mode, your score can be found in your HUD. You can raise your score by killing enemies,opening books, breaking chests, picking up items and doing many other things.When you die or "exit to main menu" your high score will be saved. For the time being your high score can be seen on the title screen, lower left.
But wait there's more...
[*] COMBOS
Combat in Trigger Saint is about getting into the zone, flowing like water, destroying large groups of enemies within seconds . I wanted to bring in a mechanic that would encourage players to play Saint how I originally wanted it to be played.There should be times of rest but in combat I want to encourage high speed attacks/dodges all while balancing your stamina,spirit and combo counter.
Trigger Saint is now fitted with a unique combo system, kill an enemy then kill another right after and you will start the combo counter.Glowing purple letters spelling the word "combo" will appear below your HUD "combo x1" and will continue to increase as long as you keep killing enemies in quick succession. If another enemy is not killed soon enough your meter will vanish, you will be rewarded points based on the number you reached x2 (so for a 32x combo you would receive 64 bonus points.) It still needs some tweaking/balancing but I hope it can be a welcome addition to Saint gameplay.
And that's not all...
[*] STEAM LEADER BOARDS
Yes... you heard correct, Trigger Saint now has it's own leader boards on Steam! Whenever you die or exit to the main menu your score will be automatically uploaded to the corresponding Steam leader board.(Only if your current score is better than your previous best). You can find leader boards in the community HUB under stats. The Story Mode high scores leader board is already up and running, to get the ball rolling I have set the first official score! Let's see what you got!
More leader boards coming soon!
Highest combo anyone?
[*] NEW ACHIEVEMENT
I have been promising this one for a while now and it's finally here, the achievement for defeating the third boss (Blue Zone). "Trophy Kill"
Happy Hunting!
I hope you enjoy these fun new changes to Saint, bragging rights await!
