What's new in this build?
December 10th [Final build until early February.]
Low Willpower Warning: The music, camera, lighting and UI will change to indicate when you're now at critically low Willpower.
You can defeat Mimics: Mimics can now be attacked between their own attacks to vanquish them and give you a pickup.
Treasure Canisters: These replace the redundant stamina canisters. They give you gold when unlocked.
Punished cultist Pleading: Cultists Now plead through their gag when their punished.
Better prisoner camera zoom ins: Now the camera wont zoom in unless the player character I directly facing the prisoner next to them. This will make navigating around prisoners easier.
Other Minor Bugfixes.
December 3rd:
Enemy Attack Dodging: This is a subtle improvement but for a short amount of time (about 0.3 seconds) while the player character moves they cannot be hit.
While this can't be used to run circles around the enemy it
WILL keep you safe if you move just as the enemy attack is about to hit. This should stop attacks landing when they shouldn't.
Overall a subtle change to improve game feel.
More Item pickups and better UI communication:
Treasure and Willpower pickups are now available. This should help players heal back faster if they've taken some hits.
There's better UI as well to communicate what you've just picked up.
Cultist Capture
To address the issue of punished cultists blocking movement due to them creating a immobile space where they're punished the mechanics has been changed.
Now up to 3 cultists at a time can be "Captured" and stored for later punishment. Punishment devices can be found around the dungeon where these captured cultists can be punished to unlock rewards.
This whole concept of putting cultists into bondage and punishment devices will be expanded as development continues.
What bugs are known:
Enemies move through each other and the player. We're working on it.
Sometimes the level generates a dungeon tile on top of another one. If that happens then restart the level.
