Micro-update 25 Mar 2013

Not much happening here. Really. It's barely worth the page break. But if you like an intro picture and you feel like helping me design a monster, you should click anyway.

Micro-update 20 Mar 2013

Just what it says on the tin. There's some words, some plans, and also some quick concept art that's more than likely going to change. So honestly, there's not much here. But still. It's been over a week without posting, and I gotta have SOME posting standards around here.
(and it's totally not because I bombed my chem test today and I want to feel mildly successful today)

Taking a break

Hey, guys... Just what it says on the title.
More info after the break, plus a couple of screenshots because I feel bad.

Living up to the tagline "frustrations"...

This weekend, my computer said to me, "Hey, bt, that's a nice update video you're working on there. New enemy, new weapon, plus you're showing off the updated cheese grater? Looking good! And you're doing a voiceover demo! People might actually think you're competent now, good for you! You know, it would be a real shame if something bad were to happen, like, say, your microphone driver crashing and making that video be full of meaningless, distracting static. Yeah. That'd be a real shame."

Guess what happened.

Mm-hmm.

Update video soon. Pinkie promise.

New Monster

Expectation:

Changeling Behemoths by ~AssasinMonkey on deviantART
Reality:


Close enough.
These guys replace the revenants. They're pretty tough, but not overwhelmingly so. They are special in that they have both a melee attack and a powerful ranged attack. The ranged attack is special in that it has a one in two chance of being a homing missile. Yeah. So sprint and stay close to the walls so it hits and explodes before it has a chance to loop around again. On the bright side, they have a high pain chance, so the best weapon to use if you want to survive unscathed is probably the rapidfire spark.

(seriously though these things are weird I was playtesting E2M2 and there's a room with one and a room with two and in the room with one I killed it without even taking damage so I walked into the room with two and I got killed without killing either they killed me down from 115% health I don't even).

Mini-update 1 March 2013 PLUS Playing Sounds Tutorial

Remember how I said I'd probably not build anything this week because of exams?

I lied.

Kindof.

...no, I definitely lied.

EDIT 9 Mar 2013: Tutorial is now easier!
