Endless Demo Update MK.V + Possible Name Change

Just a smaller update this time round only overhauling the tutorial with actual tutorial messages to make the text a little easier to read and better silhouettes for enemies as they seemed to always appear shaded. A smaller update as to try my best not to get burnt out on game dev stuff and also debating on if I should change the name of the game and if so, what to. More at the bottom of the blog.

MK.V Changes:

Gameplay Changes:

  • Medals: XP rewards for specific actions like multiplier milestones and headshot/weakpoint kills. For now the medals system is really simple, are only for a small amount of simple actions, does not track the amount of medals of the same type you get and a lot of the medals will use a placeholder medal texture for the moment. In the future I'd like to build this to track medals, rewards items/achievements and be a little more refined in general but for now I'm happy about it.

At this moment medals only are rewarded for:

  • - Scoring headshot/weakpoint kills, 
  • - 10x Combo Multiplier (missing medal texture for now)
  • - 25x Combo Multiplier (missing medal texture for now)
  • - 50x Combo Multiplier (missing medal texture for now)

I plan to add more medals like:

  • - Mid air kills 
  • - Long Distance kills 
  • - Multi Kills (Double/Triple/Quadruple and the like)

General Changes:

  • Changed the ear piercing headshot kill sound to the much better (and less annoying) sound. - The old sound was an experiment for feedback on headshot kills, it kind of worked but the sound choice was understandably undesirably.
  • Changed the in-world tutorial text with pop-up windows. 
  • Changed the grid texture to use inverse colours with a grey colour to help with text readability and to give the dummy's in the weapons area better silhouettes.

Here's a look at what the medals system looks like for now:


...And this is what the new tutorial looks like:
