Project Downfall 0.9.12.3 Early Access Update now live!

Project Downfall 0.9.12.3 Early Access Update for both the Demo and Full Early Access now live!

Featuring : Chaingun Harry! The first of a few minigames inspired by cult classics. This particular stage is inspired by the original Alien Versus Predator 1999 Marine Demo by Rebellion(Dang, I really loved that one!).



Check out the what's new notes down below on how to unlock and play! *Right now Chaingun Harry shares the main heroes speed/movement but this will be eventually tweaked to be more similar to doomguys speed and movement. Also these minigames will by final release unlock retro graphic filters (which are currently all unlocked in Early Access). Changun Harry uses/will unlock VGA256.

I'd also like to take this opportunity to thank you all for the valuable feedback! Some issues have already been addressed with more to come. Special shoutout to: Truen, Professional Liberal, Gasol.



We also noticed during certain recent playthroughs on youtube a lot of people are missing the weapons lockers in the second Genesis stage, which would make the stage a bit harder than it should be (since the only other available firearm would then be the mp5 with its crazy spray radius) Hopefully the adjustment in this patch will fix this.

So please keep the gameplays and info coming! This really helps us evaluate what needs to be addressed :)

Also worth noting that some of the materials used in the Chaingun Harry map come from Philip K (Klevestav) free texture packs and have been modified to fit the style of the game. http://www.philipk.net/

And finally: we are focusingon a new build method which ought to significantly improve performance. This will hopefully be ready by the next major update ETA early July.




[h2]Now without further ado, let's move on to what's new![/h2]

-Chaingun Harry minigame with deidcated dynamic tune and sounds: Your base has been overrun by aliens. Make your way to the exit with your trusty chaingun in hand! To unlock: You need to take the funny games route in the final Genesis stage and picking up a copy by throwing a weapon at the override switch near the exit. Another gate will open next to the escalator leading to the arcade parlour. Here, next to the end of the level on the left, you will find a physical copy of ChaingunHarry Lost levels. Pick it up and proceed to finish the level and get back home. Now you will have the game selectable from your mamebox console next to your TV. Worth noting this is the first version so some bugs and issues might occur: a known one is that the only firearm enemy is dropping the incorrect weapon (he shouldn't dop any actually;)-this will be fixed soon)

-Reworked Chat GUI. Still Work in Progress and will be udpated with upcoming larger and smaller patches

-Added custom intro for Mamebox console for use currently with Chaingun Harry

-CAB, Curfew, level select hub and apartment exploit map fixes (thanks Truan) with minor details added and polish (ie death fall blackout event added, supoprt beams and girders to street in level select hub etc)

-Chaingun Harry avatar animations with damage overlays

-Chaingun weapon logic and sounds

-Xenomorph enemies: 2 variations with animation sets

-fix tengu exit bug

-station WC door replaced with new system hinge door

-subhub navmesh update to avoid enemies clipping through walls

-weapon locker visibility update in train care genesis

-deathfall tweak lev select to cover whole area to avoid no balckout on fall.

-fixed lev sel cops to be immune to headshots

-disabled collisions between enemy weapons and player projectiles which could sometimes block enemy getting hit including headshots (needs feedback and testing!!! Possibly will need to do the same between player melee and enemy weapons for next update)



So that's all for now. Possibly some smaller updates might drop before the next major July updates.

In case of any issues, feedback, ingame possibilities or whatever else, just fire away!

Til the next one!
