EMPTY SHELL News

They see you

They see you, literally.
And they will hunt you down.

Multiple drones at the same time

If you're lucky enough to find (or wealthy enough to buy) multiple drones (even equipped with different weapons), there's no limit to how many of them you can activate at the same time.
You can basically turn yourself into a walking piece of artillery.
(also, gadgets will now show how much ammo they have left)

Reloading

Hey, everyone!

Considering the very positive reception of the idea on Discord, i'm implementing a reload system for all the weapons.

It wasn't there from the beginning, deliberately, to give EMPTY SHELL more of a "Quake" vibe, but the game is shaping up in a way that a reload system would fit nicely.

Some weapons (most of them) will work with mags, others (like the shotgun and the hunting rifle in the prologue, for example) will have single round reload (with a finite number of maximum rounds in the internal magazine).

Dodging, aiming, or melee strikes will interrupt the action, so keep a distance when reloading.
Also, reloading won't be automatic (shooting with an empty weapon with spare ammo won't reload), so keep an eye on the ammo counter!

About extra inventory slots

Yes, they exists!



Carrying stuff isn't easy when wearing a hazard suit, but volunteers can get some extra help from leg pouches.
They won't be able to equip too many of them, but they will surely notice the benefits.

Special gas mask

Some of the containers, abandoned for decades, have started to leak and have made some areas particularly dangerous to pass through, unless you wear a special gas mask, capable of filtering the polonium particles dispersed from the containers.
