Repeated intro
Hello everyone! We've just released a new trailer and we gave a fresh coat of paint to the Steam page, do you like the new look? Also the release date is getting closer and we're updating the demo as we go.
What changed
- Gameplay
- UI and audio
Here’s a list of the major changes:
⁃ Homing bullets and auto aim! We want the focus of the game to be on the chess pieces and dodging so we've made it a little easier to hit your opponent regardless of what character you choose to play.
⁃ Game summary! Once the game ends you'll now be able to see how the game went. We've implemented a graph representing the flow of the match and a few stats.
⁃ Voicelines! We've hired some great voice actors to give life to our character. As of now you can hear George and Wukong but the full roster will be dubbed.
⁃ UX improvements! We've implemented a new system to let you know where a piece is coming from and where it's going with a glance, improving your ability to make quick choices.
⁃ Characters info! You'll now be able to see how a character plays with the push of a button.
⁃ Weapon visual improvements! We've updated the look of the weapons to be more visible.
⁃ QoL improvements and bug fixes.
