Warlock's Tower

News from the mailman's mouth!


Hi, folks! How are you doing? We hope we’re not interrupting your Pokehunt! So, ready for some news?

The first one is that the Warlock’s Tower family is now even bigger! That’s right, we’re announcing a new cameo appearance in our game! Bringing her slashing sword and fancy suit to the Evil Warlock’s Tower is Kim, from Cat Nigiri’s awesome puzzler, Keen! Here’s she, being pictured at the Factory floor, between Tim and Jess. We wonder if they’ll get along?

Let’s hope they do!

In another news, after hearing all the great feedback from players at the BIG Festival (thanks everyone!), we completely revamped our user interface. Now, we believe, there’s a better connection between what goes on in the game and how the player (yep, that’s you!) perceives it. Did we hit the mark? You’re the ones to tell! Here’s a GIF of the new UI in action:

We’ve also been experimenting (and this is still top secret! Don’t tell anyone! ;)) with an entirely new mechanic to help you beat the longest levels! We’ve been calling this mechanic “Tiny Little Friendly Flag” (subject to change). By using it, you’ll be able to plant a flag anywhere in the level so that, if you happen to misstep (which will happen), you can resume from that place by loading a savestate. Doesn’t it sound useful? We think so:

That’s it folks. Loads of new stuff for you. What do you think? Like it? Hate it? Please tell us via Twitter, Facebook, or by replying to this newsletter!

Warm hugs from Brazil,

Enemies can also suddenly spawn through Realm Rifts. These Rift Spawns are going to be stronger than the ones wandering around. TBD on the enemies... #screenshotsaturday #godstear #madewithunity

Let me introduce you to the new Mech line: Gendai Spec. Those are Mech that specializes in surprise attacks, covered operations, and stealth. They are equipped with melee weapons but one of Gendai's frames supports sniper rifles.

I mostly build 3D First Person Shooter game mechanics in Unity, and in this I'm just showing C4 mechanics I made for a little side project I am working on! :)

The Authority decided to investigate the Basement and leads to recovering classified documents Fun fact: The building has 928 doors and not 1000 doors. #horror
