Devblog 1: Rebind Keys and FAQ


I spend most of my time this week creating a keybinding menu, which is accessible from the main menu and should work for keyboards and controllers, this should especially help people with different keyboard layouts or controllers to play the game.

I also added a lobby room where players that spawn mid-round get placed, they can wait for the round to finish there and will be placed ingame when the next one starts.

I will randomize the team of the last player that joined if there is an uneven number of players or if you play alone soon, so you wont always play as cop in these scenarios.

I will now focus on new maps, a single player mode and an improved tutorial, aswell as bugfixes/improvements.

FAQ:

Q: When will the game go out of Early Access and where will it be available?

A: It will be out when its complete, fun and mostly bugfree, hopefully around early to mid 2018. It will be sold on Steam for a low price, and testers of this EA version that helped me out with their feedback, suggestions and bugreports will get free keys, of course.

Q: Does this game support singleplayer?

A: Not right now, but I plan to add either singleplayer missions or the normal online game mode with bots.

Q: Will this game support controllers and VR?

A: VR support isnt planned, it already supports controllers.

Q: How can I help with the development of the game?

A: Playing it with some friends and giving feedback is really appreciated, if you have any questions or feedback tell me here or on https://discord.gg/AuaXkam.

If you have any other questions, feel free to ask!

Did you know that today is #InternationalJazzDay? ๐ŸŽท๐Ÿ˜Ž

No? ๐Ÿ˜ฏ Well, we couldn't pass up this date!

And what better to celebrate this day than #Pecaminosa #OST? ๐ŸŽท

Let us know what you think about it and have a great weekend!

We are under attack!

Here's a peaceful little forest scene for this #screenshotsaturday, from the beginning of the game.

Today I was setting up the location of the first boss. His name is "Father" and he is the first of the Patagonians. His task is to guard the road to the House.๐Ÿ›ก๐Ÿ—ก Bookmark pre-launch page๐Ÿ”–๐Ÿ”–๐Ÿ”–

Quantum precognition is one of the most powerful cards. End game cards & equipment. Demo/alpha build boss is no match for this deck.

In the quest for accessibility, I'm adding Resurrection Shrines for players on the 'novice' end of the platforming spectrum.

In order to unlock the power of a Shrine, you must collect 3 'Souls' from your dead corpses! (the floating blue orbs)

Update 2.627

New challenges & new effects!

A house I've built a while ago. :)

It nicely separates the snowy biome from the grassy one.

It's built with painted Ebonstone.
