ASTHENIA changes
As we gear up for the public demo launch on March 26, I’ve just pushed a new update! This patch addresses several key issues and adds a layer of overall polish to improve the experience.
Check out the latest improvements and fixes below:
Dynamic Input Icons: UI and action prompts now automatically swap between Keyboard/Mouse and Controller icons based on your active device. No more seeing both presets on screen at once!
- Environmental PolishFixed various collision issues across the demo map to prevent players from getting stuck and to improve movement flow.
Gauntlet Melee Overhaul (WIP) I’ve retuned the Gauntlet’s melee speed to make every punch feel faster and more impactful. Attacks now have better feedback for a more visceral combat experience. (Note: Tuning is ongoing and subject to further polish based on your feedback!)
- Prologue Visual PolishThe final area of the demo has been updated to improve visual clarity . Key elements and objectives are now much easier to distinguish, making the finale feel more focused. (WIP)
Asset Polish & Visual Feedback: I’ve implemented a large-scale update to VFX and particles. By improving the visual feedback for enemies and objects, the game is now more readable, allowing for faster recognition of combat patterns and environmental cues.
- Destruction PolishUpdated visual cues for all destructible actors. Identifying breakable objects is now clearer and more rewarding.
