#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.

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.

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.
