Small features.


I decided it was time to work on optimising my code a bit. So I went through and did just that.

On top of that, I’ve added a accurate FPS counter that give you:
Lowest fps
Average fps
Highest fps

I’ve also added a spawn cap per round, for example:

Say there’s 16 enemies and 4 spawners, each spawn 4 enemies, what my system does is caps the spawn rate to 2, so now it spawns 2 for every 4, once the player has killed the 8 enemies that have spawned, the spawners will spit out the 8 that are left to end the round at a total of 16.

Every time you open a door and link the new spawners, my system takes that in to account and adjusts the variables needed! Best part about it is that I got a huge boost in my frames! And the Player won’t get crowded by 100 zombies at a time!

Now obviously that’s just an example, there’s going to be more than 2 at a time (16 from each to be exact, possibly 8 depending).

Again, on top of all that, I’ve fixed a lot of bugs, I had to go all out Sherlock on one of them - Reloading and purchasing a perk whilst not having enough takes 500 points and gives you full ammo.

Thanks to my tester Mrr7782 for spotting that. Right now I’ve got 2 testers all with different specs.

We’re on on Windows so I’ll have to wait to test on Mac. If you have Mac and would like to test please drop a comment and I’ll send you a message!

Huge update coming soon. For now, take a look at our Christmas icon!

A quick screenshot. Just released the build to my testers, it’s has a name because it’s special, “The Graphics Patch”. Now, I really need to model those perk machines…

A heads up. I might be silent but I will still be working on the game, I can promise that. Here’s a snippet of code, I only noticed what it read after I wrote it.

Chiaki Nanami!

Family band complete!

If you have more of an acquired taste, the restaurants in Niravasi have you covered! Maybe skip the salad bar, though.

My D&D art for my family so far (WIP if you couldn't tell)
