Drew the first 4 players! They’ll function much like in the previous game, except Anna and Natalie will have their secondary weapons swapped. Once I program these guys, I’ll start working on multiplayer gameplay.
I’m curious to hear what other playable characters you want to see. NoLegs and Slime Bunny will be playable for sure. The main cat from Cat Cafe probably too.
There will be no permanent upgrades this time, but I’m considering some sort of player customization system, where you can equip some stat modifiers (+10% movement speed, +20% power up duration, etc), or change each player’s sub weapon to a totally different one.
We shall see.
Will no-legs return as a playable character? ❓ ❓ ❓
Red Mage!
All this sounds exciting! As a special character, I would see a random choice between between some emblematic enemies as the mammoth, giant squid, preatorian or idols. I know I’m too gready, but it you add new characters one after the others. But yes, for a starter, i would love to see a firing mammoth. :shades:
Just read you tweet about changing bullet pattern speed.
A word of warning about unlimited increase of bullet speed : if
player speed+bullet speed (in pixels per frame) > player hit box size+bullet hit box size ,
then bullets will start moving through the player without causing damage. This is especially problematic with small bullets.
At that point, you have to replace the simple frame overlap checks by a slighty more complicated logic. (you check collision “between frames” knowing shape, speed, origin and destination of the two objects.
This Game will be awesome ,i think ,for the non permanent upgrades maybe the enemies drops some equips ,that will be interesting . n.n
Ps: You are Amazing
well, i think you should add pearment upgrades to have some sense of progress and not just advencing levels.
for more players i thought about the Beholder, the big oak(the first boss in EBF4), and the robot boss from EBF4.
How about godcat as a character?
Maybe one of the sub weapons could be a buff or something like that.
Would like to see a subweapon swap that would be interesting.
A hidden character would be interesting (such as getting A or higher in all levels) where you can play as Valkyrie or maybe as Glitch.
Perhaps there could be an option to use a custom character like we could make with the character creator way back when. That would be a popular choice. And then it could have set defaults that would be for the main characters and weapons that would go well with them.
