v0.3 "Harkoba" Update

RPMania
A browser game made in HTML5

What's New?

  • Added 2 new characters
    • Hargz, the fastest character so far; his special moves takes advantage of that.
    • Jakoba, the strongest female character so far; she's is however slower than Ben.
  • Swamp Hut got a massive makeover
    • Arena looks way more lively.
    • Now has fog, bats, and witches!
  • Massive improvements to the Interface
    • Finally did a game logo.
    • Added scaling, tweening, and opacity animations to make the UI more intuitive.
    • Wait room and start timers have been redone
      • New textures and animation to make it much better.
  • Implemented MIXUP effect
    • Causes target to randomise their own target if their attacking.
  • Added team/position swapping
    • The server/first player can change anyone's except for themselves' teams or position.
    • There must be at least 3 players connected to the server to be able to toggle swapping.
    • If the first player disconnects from the server, the second player becomes the first player and so on.
  • 2 new save data has been added
    • Toggling the Frames Per Second (FPS) counter, press F.
    • Changing the framerate target, currently no key binding but it might be the S key when there is.
  • Players can now toggle showing or hiding usernames during matches, press U in-game.
  • Implemented mid-match joining*
    • If a player disconnects from a match, they can rejoin the match with the same IP.
    • Currently when a player joins, it reverts everyone to the "pick a move" state - risking unfair play or wasting Team MP.
    • The feature is incomplete, so it might not work sometimes - especially if multiple players are disconnected or in a 6-8 player match.
  • Added Club Room pre-game ambience.
  • Added a legal page in the menu.
    • Shows license information about the game, game assets, and game engine.
  • And more!

Changes

  • More character re-balancing.
  • Scrolling background colour modulating has been improved upon
    • It respects the interface colour no matter how quick you change it.
  • Wait room's scrolling background now modulates between different purples
    • Depending on if you're in the character select, arena select, or etc.
  • More changes that I can't think of.

Fixes

  • Fixed fallback timer being too long if a soft-lock occurs.
  • Lots of under the hood fixes and net-code improvement to make the experience smoother!
  • Many more fixes!
  • Report any bugs/issues you might encounter.
