0.2.10 - Judgement Day

NEW CONTENT

• New arena - The Battlefield Inspired by a world war that shall remain un-enumerated. The Battlefield features airdrops containing Energy Potions, HP-kits and landmines

• New arena - Holigan Hollow Inspired by Plants vs Zombies and the local cemetery. Is that weird? Anyways, Hooligan Hollow features coffins that rise from the ground and spawn zombies if disturbed. Zombies will follow and attack nearby minions

• Hell Stadium now has a bit more stadium-like vibe

• Minions now have hair and more equipment

MAJOR CHANGES

• One button chargeable kick. We combined the two kick buttons into one. Hold the kick button to charge up a kick that goes longer and higher. To avoid running around with a constant charged kick, selected minions walk slower while charging. This also makes it easier to perform precision kicks.

• Shape of the playing field. We've cut away some dead space around the corners of the arena, and angled them so that the ball more often ends up in places affording interesting gameplay.

• Wall bounce. The ball bounces off the wall with a bit more force than it entered with.

• Ball drag. As long as the ball is kicked around, it moves fast and nimble. If the ball is not not kicked for a while, it wil increase it s drag and come to a halt, making it easier to catch up with.

• Respawning logic. After a minion is eliminated, the minon slot enters a cooldown period. As soon as the cooldown is finished, you ar able to buy back the minion instantly.

• Final Goal. When the time runs out, the game will continue until a final goal is scored. If that final goal makes the game tied, the game continues to a final round.

• Armageddon. If a player has a >2 goal lead when the timer runs out, their goal is closed during the final goal phase. This forces the player with fewer goals to go for the only way they can win: Annihilating the opponent team

• Hit-stop. To give attacks and interactions more oomph, we added a hit-stop effect, freezing minions and objects for a short time while interacting. This feature is not stress tested in a real world network setting. Please post error reports in our Discord.
