Sorta Important Poll: Instakills (or lack therof) in the Lair
Okay, so this is a bit of an odd thing I've stumbled upon.
It looks like player-based instakill attacks (Unscrew 1, 2 and Esc Key) aren't actually supposed to work at all in the Geist Lair in the original.
Do I return this feature and disable player instakills, or do I keep it active and lower the chance of success?
---
Option 1: Make Geist Lair an instakill-free zone
Option 2: Let instakills still be (slightly) viable in the Geist Lair
Still deciding if it's worth committing to a full rebuild, but I at least figured out a better way to handle the party swapping mechanic.
This whole "making a new battle frame" situation does give me an excuse to add some things I had been putting off for far too long.
Turns out what the game actually needed was for me to take a proper break from development and enough time to realize what I had broken.
(It was the values tied to IDing what foe it'd be.)
It'll likely need more testing, but we're back in buisiness!
While I chip away at the code for XL, I might as well show off the fruits of another thing I had tinkered with: modding custom music into Bionicle Heroes.
Ouch.
Can it be done?
(Also, Happy New Year)
That time of year again.
Got a (mostly stable) demo ready for the occasion!
Still have to address a few tweaks to layering and test some other sidequests, but I think that we're back on track again.
I might be having too much fun with this process...
