10 New Rooms - I'm done with the f*ing rooms

Hello Dear Adventurers,


[h2]I'm done with the fu*ing rooms[/h2]

In this update I added 10 new rooms and I'm so happy to say I'm done with the rooms for good. If you played the Demo you know there was only 8 rooms in the room pool. There's now 50 rooms! And I'm not planning to add more until the release of the game.

I also added a new map selection screen in the lobby. It looks way cool now.


[h2]Localization[/h2]
I implemented the localization mechanics to the game. With the translation of the words from my publisher, the game will be localized to:
  • Turkish
  • French
  • Italian
  • German
  • Spanish
  • Traditional Chinese
  • Korean
  • Japanese
  • Portuguese
  • Hindi
  • Arabic (Not certain)


[h2]New Update[/h2]
This months I will be mostly polishing the game, try to balance the mechanics and work on the optimization. I'm also planning to add a new enemy this month.

DEVLOG - 4 Aztec Warrior & 10 New Rooms

Hello Dear Adventurers,

In this update, I added a new Aztec Warrior enemy, a new findable gun and 10 new rooms to the Treasure Hunters.

[h2]Aztec Warriors:[/h2]
Aztec Warriors are people who live in the dungeons, unaware of the outside world. They are the final remnants of the Aztec race. And they will fight anything to save their dungeons.
  • If an Aztec Warrior is far enough, he will shoot sleeping darts at you and will beat you to death while you're unconscious.
  • If he is close enough, he'll rush in with his macuahuitl! And if you aim at him, he'll try to dodge it.
  • When his health drops, he escapes, heals himself,f and keeps firing darts!


[h2]Blowgun:[/h2]
Blowgun is an old Aztec Weapon that can be found in the dungeons and dropped from an Aztec Warrior. The darts of the blowgun will put the target to sleep for 5 seconds if hit.

[h2]10 New Rooms:[/h2]
With every update I'm adding 10 new rooms so. Again I added 10.


[h3]Aztec Warriors:[/h3]
  1. Headlight open close with [F]
  2. Ragdoll camera is much better.
  3. And some bug fixes etc...


[h2]Next Update:[/h2]
I'll be adding last 10 rooms and it would be done with the rooms before the game release. After that I'm planning to add 2-3 more enemies and start doing some polishes.


New Enemy & 10 New Rooms

Hi Hunters,

In this update I added a new Enemy called Chaneque, Hearing Sense for Enemies and 10 new Rooms.

Chaneque

Chaneque is a mythical Aztec creature that lived in Mesoamerica. "those who inhabit dangerous places" or "owners of the house" in Náhuatl. These small, sprite-like beings hold a connection to elemental forces and are regarded as guardians of nature.
  • In the Treasure Hunters, Chaneques will follow you and ask for a small valuable item of yours.
  • You can either give your treasure or just run away or kill him.
  • If you hurt him or don't give him a treasure in time he will start crying. Which will make you dizzy and will attract all nearby enemies with his high pitch voice.


[h2]Hearing Sense[/h2]
Yes, enemies can now hear your gunshot, movement, etc. So be careful where you use your gun.

10 New Rooms

Again I added 10 new rooms and all of them have their own mechanics. (I actually loved this update's new rooms).


Also fixed this:
If you add an item right after the start, it doesn't get bought and spent money but it is added at the end of the adventure

Next Update

I'm planning to add 10 more new rooms which will make up to 40 rooms with the current ones and add a new Enemy.
