Hellish Quart News

This is not yet the "big" update with the new character, the boss fight, and the arcade mode, still working on it! For now just small tweaks and a new Arena.


Hellish Quart pre-alpha v. 2022.10.17.0

TWEAK:
- Physics system tweaks for better collisions
- Different physics collision calculation system
- Increased velocity calculation iterations after a blade bounce

FIX:
- Increased maximum sword physics velocity to prevent sword damping
- Tweaks to collision detection system to prevent blades from getting stuck for split second due to "unsolvable" scenarios

NEW:
- checked the Windows Mixed Reality headset support checkbox on Steam Store (tested on HP Reverb G2 and RTX3080ti)
- new Arena: Village Huts

Known issues:
- VR: colorful borders may be visible in WMR headsets on some graphics cards (for example visible on RTX2070 but not visible on RTX3080, looks like a driver error and not something I could fix in the game)
- Regression: Audio of killing strikes sometimes gets cut off

NEW:
- Vsync options (changing Vsync requires restarting the game!)

----------
Tip for anyone who has a "monster" monitor (for example 4K, 360Hz), but medium grade graphics card (for example GF 2060):

Set the Graphics options like this:

Hellish Quart pre-alpha v. 2022.09.23.0

FIX:
- a few small fixes for the Right of Way mechanics
- fixed bug where dropped objects (heads, swords...) would slide on the ground
- Fixed Father Zera playing regular death animations in ROW mode instead of ROW win / lose animations

In this update new win / lose animations for the Right of Way mode are added. Check out the video!

Hellish Quart pre-alpha v. 2022.09.21.0

NEW:
- Right Of Way mode now has special Defeat animations that can blend from Lose to Win state, depending on the Right of Way Double Kill result.
- Marta: Tired and Limping movement animations

TWEAK:
- Father Zera: Walk Backward animation is a bit faster

Hellish Quart pre-alpha v.2022.09.17.0

FIX:
- Fixed resetting the training mode score if Rematch is pressed

TWEAK:
- The fight break after scoring a hit in training mode is reduced to 2.4s

NEW:
- Added a manual Set Target FPS override in Graphics Options, that will override the auto detection settings. This is for supporting cases where the player has multiple monitors with different refresh rates each, and the game detects just the primary monitor's refresh rate, while you want to actually play on the second monitor, or through Steam Link on your TV, etc.
