Gameplay Updates

Happy to announce that I am working with TechChaseTV as my Combat Designer for 'Urban Warriors'. I met him at the Defend The North X fighting game tournament and we sat together for a day and a half taking notes and implementing as many changes as we could. With his encyclopedic knowledge of frame data, I consider him a 'fighting game genius'. The goal is to build the most exhilarating competitive arena fighting game by raising the skill ceiling & enabling player expression. We've put together a long list of refinements & implementations. This is the first of many gameplay updates in the coming weeks.

Slow Motion & Parry Updates

• Versus Mode - Slow Motion during Special Moves & Parries have been disabled.

• Versus Mode - Slow Motion "SlowMo" Option added. Consider enabling for casual/party mode.

• Parry Window reduced to 5 frames, "SlowMo" if enabled, can make the perception of these frames to be longer because of time dilation.

Universal Launcher Added

• Sprint + Punch is now a Universal Launcher

• The startup frames are shorter after a punch attack

Guard Updates

• Guard no longer auto rotates nearest opponent, We might re-introduce auto rotate within a certain range of degrees

• Air Guard no longer has animation transitions

Movement Updates

• Dash No longer requires meter

• Dash No longer has invincibility frames

• Air Dash Distance Reduced

• Velocity is now preserved on landing

• Friction reduced to allow some sliding

• Jump Gravity decreased

• Second Jump Velocity decreased

Throw Updates

• Throws can now be Teched by pressing the Grab button

• Throws now beat Guard

• Throw animation updated with new timing

• Successful Throw attempt leads to Special Throw paired attacks

• Special Throws currently beat Guard & cannot be Teched. We will re-evaluate Special Throws

• Versus Mode - CPU Opponents now attempt Throws & Pickup Nearby Weapons/Props
