The all-new weapon shop!


For those of you who played Ignition, you may remember the shop as a static menu screen where you can buy and equip weapon and accessories. Well, there’s a shop in Crucible too, but this one’s more exciting!

This shop isn’t just a menu - it’s an in-game location that’s part of the new hub level.

Prototype graphics ahoy!

(Ever wondered why the Vibrosword has two holes in the blade? Now you know - they’re joints!)

Not only is the shop a place you can visit in-person, but the weapon detail images are now animated (as you can see on the new Vibrosword screen).

That’s all for now. I have in fact been working on other things within the game since my last post 5 months ago, and I’ll try harder to keep this devlog updated in the future.

In the meantime, you can get much more frequent updates on the Carnage in Space Facebook page!

Next up

Operative Delta, elite assassin.

She'll play some sort of part in Kodon's upcoming story content.

The only question is just how much stabbing this part will involve!

Egad, what's with all the enemies popping out of the walls lately? Can't you all just sit out in the open like proper gentlemen?

It's finally here! Enjoy the story of Crucible again from a new perspective - that of the relentless mechanized alien warrior Tuhrahkkkii!

This update comes with a fully-developed 2nd playable character, and LOADS MORE!

Hmm, what was that someone said about backstabbing?

On today's episode of Pixel Art Fundamentals: That is Not What the Sun Looks Like!

Yeah, I'm not sure what I was thinking when I shaded the old version. The new one looks more like an actual light source.

Did I ever tell you that this game is actually fully rendered in 3D???

...Well, it isn't. Anyway, perspective is hard but I managed to get this new shop image drawn up.

Mmm, toasty.

ALL DEVELOPMENT on the 2.0 release is NOW DONE!

YES!

All that's left now is the promo art and the trailer, then you'll be getting your hands on it very soon.

And here's the shop animation for last week's new flail weapon.

Its jump attack hits a wide area, making it perfect for swatting flying enemies!

Aaaaand, we're back! Development on phase 3 (the final phase!) has begun, with Kodon's last weapon: The Beam Flail!

This is a clumsy but powerful weapon. It has a very long reach and hits hard, but it's not fast. Use it on enemies too close for your gun!

UNLEASH THE BEAST.

This is Tuhrahkkkii's final alternate weapon, the Beam Claws. These emphasize quick burst damage and hit-and-run tactics. They also pair nicely with the Grappling Hook, but I was too busy kicking fools here to show that off.
