#horror #survival DevDiary: blunderbuss.

Europe of 16–17 centuries - a period of wars and revolutions with successes and failures in the development of hand-held firearms and the usage of the weapons from previous centuries, like the blunderbuss.

#horror #gamedev DevDiary: hand-to-hand combat.

In the harsh world of RoD gamer can left without any staff in case of death. It's unfair to leave the player without possibility to fight.

So, we're expanding the combat capabilities.

Feel like berserkers.

#horror DevDiary: 3-barelled pistol. Advantages of this example of hybrid technology:

- 3 shots are available after each reload;

- significantly increased range;

- more damage due to the longer barrel length.

#UnrealEngine DevDiary: quest and dialogue systems. A small example of the fusion of the quest system and the dialogue system. Playback of soundtracks and specific animations is also provided, but you can't see it on the video. Just trust us :)

Happy to show the significant progress in development of "RoD" for the last monthes. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qgrW9fZIzeo&t=4s

Here we focused on improved visual&sound effects when causing and receiving damage, using weapons; improved enemy animations; UX/UI system core.

"Federation77" VR arena-shooter released on Steam! Main hero lives in a sleeping area of the city of M and goes out to meet his "favorite" neighbors. Morality of this people has fallen, this city is a goddamn ghetto... On Steam: https://store.steampowered.com/app/1620410/Federation77

#survival DevDiary: Damage system.

It's one of the main issues when working out the mechanics of melee weapons.

The trick of the method shown in the video lies in the almost complete correspondence of the movement of the weapon to inflicting damage.

RoD. DevDiary. Combat mechanics:

- parry, causing stunning of the enemy;

- block with loss of stamina;

- fast hit with normal damage;

- heavy hit with increased damage and high consumption of stamina;

- one-handed ax that can be purchased in the village.

#survival DevDiary: inventory and character parameters.

We will be grateful for your comments after you visually check the usability of the proposed inventory and how clear it is.

DevDiary: ragdoll.

What could be better than killing the imps in different ways?

Beautifully slam the enemies against the elements of the environment, for sure.
