Synthetic Onslaught
1 year ago

I have exciting news! Synthetic Onslaught Is getting a revamp! A new Hub area, the return of the Fog of War, new enemies, etc!

Read more below:


Working on a 2.5D Isometric engine for internal spaces to act as a HUB area in between battles. The map uses layers to hide/show rooms, and NPC locations are randomized, and only unlocked Synths show here.
Each NPC type pulls from its own set of dialogue. I also pull in some voice overs.

There is 4 spaces you can freely explore:
* The central barracks where most NPC resides. In future shops can appear here.
* The briefing room where you can play any assignments (these are the same as the prologue in the earlier versions of the game)
* The Synth Lab (Not used yet, but this is where you can upgrade your Synths)
* The Portal Room. Takes you to a randomly generated free battle map. You can provide a 5 digit seed to get roughly the same map every time. Unlike previous entries units/ enemies seen Skirmish link up to what is was already encountered in previous assignments.

New main menu artwork. Totally reminds me of early PS1 RPG with high pre rendered backgrounds and simple 3D characters on top.

Finally a graphic for your Base Panel, I bounced around from varying ideas like a Barracks, to a Dropship, or APC/Support Truck. But in the end, I settled on a Teleportation device. Check out the new graphic!

New wisp. Whip, perform numerous cuts in front of the character.

New ability. Back Dash, perform a quick dash backwards when on the ground.

Synthetic Onslaught Re-Released?? Apparently packages had been set to private at some point, or maybe have been private for past few years, IDK. I was here upload a bugfix patch, but maybe this may actually release day for most of you... o.O Well enjoy!
