Hands!

Last month we were busy working on this new update and we finally adressed the most wanted feature… hands! ✋ Of course everything is subject to change so if you have any feedback for hands or other feature we would love to hear it on our discord. We also upgraded engine version from Unreal engine 5.0 to 5.1 which greatly improved lightning on moving objects, reflections, physics and much more. We tested improved physics of both versions and you can see difference here:

Here is the full changelog:

New features:

• Enemy head will explode if you kill them with headshot

  

• Added hands to all weapons and improved animation. Added idle animation

  

• Player will push props around when walking through them

• Improved camera shake on all weapons

• Added HDR support

• Improved fire feedback, player now sees flames when burning

• Added highlight on pickup items for better visibility

  

• Added headshot and damage indicator to the crosshair

• Reprogrammed the whole weapon system from scratch (you won‘t notice that, but we did it :D). It‘s now more robust and modular. This will enable us to create alternative attacks and more.

• [audio] Headshot kill now has unique sound

• [audio] Overhauled all weapon sound to have stronger feel and fixed mixing

• [audio] Wrench attack has more weight upon impact

• [audio] Many new impact sounds, destruction sounds and prop sounds - rubber, plastic, metal, wood, cardboard

Balancing:

Bugfixes:

• [audio] Infinite loop of shotgun reload sound fixed

• [audio] Infinite loop of ladder sound fixed

• Many small environment fixes (alignment, levitating props, clipping, etc.)

• Physics props will now detach from player if he is too far away, so props should now clip much less

And what we worked on beside this update? We started by planning whole second chapter, all enemies and new weapons. After everything was planned we started on blockout of first level:
