Dev Diary #6 - Weapons and Augments #2
Know your enemy! That's a core tenet of being an Orphean. Whether you're fighting Freorra Corpos or alien threats, you must understand them. And what better way than to use their own weapons against them.
Good day, Orpheans!
There's even more weapons and augments to talk about in today's developer diary! We're going to focus on using the enemy against itself and picking up some corrupted weaponry.
[h2]WEAPONS[/h2]
The Orpheus is crawling with unknown enemies. But it's not all doom and gloom! Use their own bodies against them with these weapons 🩸
[h3]Bonesaw ⚔️[/h3]
A sharp jawbone from a Darkphage with remarkable toughness. Its convenient shape makes it an effective close-combat weapon.
[h3]Spitclaw 🔫[/h3]
An energy-generating gland from a Darkphage, it can manipulate magnetic fields to create and propel balls of plasma. It seems to be able to sustain itself if given enough food. Recently seen in our playtest—did you get a chance to play with it?
[h3]Bonespitter 🔫[/h3]
This grotesque mass of organs is capable of propelling bone-like projectiles at devastating speeds, inflating its lung and releasing the gas with immense pressure.
[h2]AUGMENTS[/h2]
Last time we talked about augments that improved your health and stamina. Now, we're going to look at some augments that actively give you new abilities throughout your run.
[h3]Dodge Defence ⬆️[/h3]
Your dodge is a powerful tool. When a Darkphage infectant is swinging its failing arms toward your torso, you need to get out of the way. However, there's more to your dodge with these augments. Like Aftershock, which drops a mini time bomb when you dodge, and Static Discharge, which leaves an electric field in your wake. However, be careful, as these extra abilities are going to increase your dodge stamina cost.
[h3]Keep it Moving ⬆️[/h3]
Increase your player speed with augments like Kinetic Boosters and Scout Boots. This will make it much harder for the Darkphage to take you down. Then combine these abilities with Run n Gun to increase weapon damage by up to 160% while moving. Become a speed machine and a blur of bullets!
You will be able to find some of these weapons and more in the upcoming playtest this weekend (starting tomorrow, the 9th of May). Be sure to sign up once it goes live at 4 PM BST. See you in the stars 💫
