Project Downfall 10th Early Access Update ETA and info
Greeting All!
After 10 months of being available in Early Access, the 10th Early Access update is almost here! Almost all major content has been added, so hopefully-if no significant issues pop up in the meantime-the update will go live around 28.02.2020
This is another big one: there were supposed to be 7 endings, but now there are actually 10 altogether! * , new levels, enemies, weapons, interactions, tunes, fixes, tweaks…
* If possible, I would like to add more to tie up all other loose ends, but this would mean significantly longer dev time. We will see how things go.
Currently we are also reviewing alternate(left hand) attacks and leaning. Unfortunately we will most likely have to drop these 2 features. Left hand/alternate attacks would not work well/intuitively on PC/keyboard, considering that based on feedback the right mouse is preferred to have quick access to throw the currently held weapon. This would collide with the path we want to take with the gamepad and so sadly we had to come to the hard decision to put this feature on hold. Same goes for leaning. As cool as it is, especially on gamepad/left analogue, it would likely be exploitable, which is something we would prefer to avoid.
However, this does not rule out they will make a comeback or be added in the end. It's just that right now there are other major priorities, which would be polishing and refining existing content. And there's already quite a bit of that;)
Looking forward to following up when the update goes live!
Cheers,
The Downfall Team,
Mike, Dawid
