Dev Diary Update: Emotion everywhere
Hello guys!
We at team Killsquad know you are sensitive people: always showing off your inner, soft core. Like when you smash the skull of an enemy. Or when you run towards victory totally ignoring our team mates, seeking MVP status. Killsquad is definitely a game for sensitive players!
That's why on our Christmas update we're focusing on giving you more ways to express yourselves.
Enter the new emote / animation system, dropping next month. Here's a quick internal video: you'll be able to press a button/key, and then select animations to show your state to your crew, or to celebrate. Check it out:

We are going to do functional animations (hello, come here, etc.) and also celebratory ones, so you can show off at mission end. Expect more of these soon, as the system is completed! Here's a pretty cool taunt animation for Kosmo. Romantic, isn't it?

But we are working on other ways for you guys to feel powerful emotions. I want to highlight two. The first is the new weather patterns. Look at this beautiful rain: doesn't it make you want to hold hands, while we all walk towards sure destruction in the hands of the Abomination?

And last, but not least, we have an announcement to make. If the animation system and the new weather effects didn't really touch your soul, this will: we are revamping the whole Killsquad soundtrack. Yep. All of it. We are now selecting pieces, but expect a much more varied soundtrack as you cross the Outer Reach. If you play the videos above, you may catch glimpses of it here and there.
So, are you in a state of deep emotion? We thought so. And, if you're not, remember Killsquad is 30% off this weekend. So go grab a friend, and go crush some alien bones.
Because destruction is so emotional.
