June Inside TeeKru: ShockRa, Silence, and the Submarine Gremlin

Glim’s Quote of the Month: “Ping ping ping! Concubines incoming! This is not a drill! (Okay it is, but it's a fun one.)” 💣😈

Ahoy Syndi and operatives!

Welcome aboard the HMS Draven for this month’s Inside TeeKru Games! Glim's at the helm, the sonar’s pinging, and Concubines? They’re getting wrecked.

Last month, we taught the Concubines to swim. Draven took her first silent dives into the depths. And with her death system in place, the tide finally turned. Concubines got their revenge... until now.

Because this month the hunter strikes back.

Underwater Executions: Now Live

Draven doesn’t run. She executes.

We launched the new underwater execution system, a cinematic six-step death ballet. Draven grabs, stabs, and silences a Concubine with brutal elegance. The blade pierces clean through. Blood fills the water. Limbs twitch. Then silence. Then disintegration.

All of it runs client-side using our custom cue system, meaning the kill plays out silky smooth on your screen, even in the middle of chaos.

Welcome to the HMS Draven

Glim’s gone full submarine commander. While riding on Draven’s back, she now:

• Calls out sonar contacts: “Sonar contact, above port.” 🔊

• Launches ShockRa mines straight from your tailpipe 💣

• Deploys Tetsubishi countermeasures that electrocute chasing Concubines ⚡

This isn’t just traversa, it’s tactical warfare in motion.

Draven surfs Mist Maiden Lake like a dreadnaught-class assassin while Glim chirps orders and rains chaos.

Cinematic Kills: Blood, Puppets, and Precision

We upgraded our Death Actor system big time. Now, during executions:

• Draven swaps into a cinematic-ready doll version with synced animation.

• The Concubine is swapped live into a dolly puppet.

• Sequencer kicks in. Niagara blood FX fly. Control Rig aligns the grab.

The result? An execution so smooth it feels like a cutscene, but it’s all gameplay.

Concubine Swarms: Smarter, Deadlier

Concubines now:

• Patrol underwater in schools.

• Swarm Draven with eerie devotion.

• Flail and convulse as they’re stabbed, gurgling out their last breath.

And Draven kicks off the corpse to jet away, elegant and deadly.

Glim: Tactical Gremlin Mode

Glim isn’t just a sidekick. She’s your sonar operator, mine layer, and comic relief:

• Deploys mines in combat

• Calls out contact directions

• Laughs maniacally when a ShockRa goes off

Her tail glows brighter the closer she is to doing something diabolical.
