Dev Update #2 - Rebels HQ is ready!
Hey there Revolutionists!
Summer's been busy, so here's a sneak peek into one of the things we've been working on. Our first player's HQ, the Theatre that was taken over by the Rebels shortly after the revolution started in Paris, was recently designed and polished.
From the start, we've been aiming for a burlesque look, inspired by the interior design of the 19th century France, as well as the over-the-top look of the 1950s and the bizarre burlesque-inspired shows. We wanted this place to capture Ana Tallien's zaniness, but also provide a climatic setting for the players who choose to support Rebels.
Since Liberte is a roguelike, this is the spot where your character will respawn after the run ends. In the Early Access version, we're planning to keep the Theatre as the main HQ for all runs, however, as the game will expand, we plan to build one such HQ for each of the factions.
In this newly designed HQ, we wanted the foyer to be in ruins, barricaded and guarded by the Rebels.
The interior part, the main hall, is where the Rebels Leader Ana Tallien hides, along with her brain of the operations, Max The Professor. The lighting focuses on Max's plans, and this place will be busy with their henchmen preparing booby traps and weapons to fuel the rebellion. Take a look at Ana preaching the rebellion's virtues below.
Much of the work revolved around volumetric lights, creating the effect of dim, steamy interiors. From the game design perspective, the Theatre's located in the city centre, and will be transformed as you guys progress with the story.
More updates coming soon!
