Devlog - Improve And Repair Weapons

As announced in the last devlog, weapons can now be improved and repaired. This new feature significantly improves the players chances to enter fights much stronger than before.

Improve and repair weapons

After equiping a weapon, options are offered to improve the weapons attack and defense properties by using certain items.

In addition to that, a weapon can be repaired up to its maximum durability by using tapes.

All these options are available for improvised weapons as well as for their more powerful versions.

The almanac is informing about the value of such items being required for the improvement.

Some smaller features

• Stronger zombies more frequently get you three items instead of just two
• A flyin is informing players briefly about the dawn of a new day
• Some bugs have been fixed (e.g. health bar in battles now renders correctly at full health)

Outlook - Animal Companions

I am planning to get a first version of the animal companions out before Feedback Quest 7 starts.

Outlook - Guaranteed weapon locations

To balance the new improvement and repair feature for weapons, in a coming version the axe, wrench and baseball bat will be harder to obtain.

There will be only two dedicated places off the track, where players are guaranteed to find them.

To raise the bar just a little further, they will be stored in a secured crate which players need to break.

Thanks for reading, stay tuned and have fun!
