    Friday Update: Kaiju in Em-8ER!

    Think of it as a beast kill-streak reward system. Will get stronger, might unleash special abilities. Def capped. Also, yes, I want players to be able to research Tsi-Hu stuff down the road.

    Friday Update: Kaiju in Em-8ER!

    1. Hehe, not for players. It's a way to keep new kaiju bosses coming 2. I never try to explain rezzing in games, it always leads to convoluted explanations that contort your fiction and end up in cloning tropes a lot.

    DOUBLE UPDATE! THMPR animations and Omniframe gameplay docs

    Typos fixed. TY. Resource tracker will indeed happen. Barrel roll, maybe...I envision some movement upgrade crafting. Shortcuts, yep, we'll play with different effects based on power allocation.

    DOUBLE UPDATE! THMPR animations and Omniframe gameplay docs

    shotguns, maybe. Sniper rifles will probably be restricted to light frames. Each frame has some unique weapons and abilities in addition to the common pool.

    DOUBLE UPDATE! THMPR animations and Omniframe gameplay docs

    Probably not going to provide keys to increment or decrement power. In X-Wing you usually went 100% to each system and a hotkey to go to max is more often used. But a powershunt upgrade will let you customize the profile to determine how much power goes to where on each hotkey, kind of like 3...

    DOUBLE UPDATE! THMPR animations and Omniframe gameplay docs

    Power-Slides: It might be fun (dunno yet) to include movement upgrades like vectored thrust, which would give you a dodge-like ability. Power hotkeys: Arrow keys sound nice. Also want a version where you dont' have to move your hands from mouse or keys. Slots & Power Constraint: Given the...

    DOUBLE UPDATE! THMPR animations and Omniframe gameplay docs

    Yep, this is the idea. You got it. You can skim for long periods, but when you come out of skim mode, no matter the distance, you will be on zero power to all other systems. In skim-mode shields are low and abilities are on cool-down and will need to spin back up. You can't really shoot in Skim...

    DOUBLE UPDATE! THMPR animations and Omniframe gameplay docs

    You can switch from melee to guns pretty fast, so these Ninjas might be pretty effective. Plus light frames tend to have teleporting or stealth upgrades available. I clicked the link, Torgue, and no, Mediums won't be dual wielding artillery howitzers... Immobile Turrent mode for heavy or Siege...

    DOUBLE UPDATE! THMPR animations and Omniframe gameplay docs

    Not at first. We're going to concentrate on getting the core features of the game built first.
