A small update: new Menus, a simple NPC and swapping


Hello Everyone! Martín here from Solarflare Fire Team!
We're excited to share and review some of the changes that we've been working on lately.

First of all... A new Enemy has entered the Arena! Meet the Undead. This spooky unit will be the first of the foes we plan for this game. They will interact differently according to your player's equipment (more on that at the end). At the moment, they only move in circles, and are yet to interact with the player, but we'll get there soon.

Also, there's a new Main Screen and Pause Menu. With the first one, you can initiate and exit the game, and on the later resume and quit the game . As it's now, the pause menu does not stop the passage of time, and as this will be a multiplayer game, we don't intend that to change. (editado)

Finally, we have a new weapon sprite for a shotgun! You can swap weapons with the Q key, between the old machine gun and the new gun. Later on we'll add new functionalities , like a cone of pellets instead of bullets and knockback on the enemies, at the cost of a much, much, MUCH slower fire rate.

In the next few weeks we plan to add the following functionalities:

  • Finish the weapons differentiation and swap mechanic.
  • Life, Stats and players death.
  • NPC's combat, attacks, spawn and movement
  • Enemy Waves and Equipment Crates.

So thats all for now! See you soon :D
