HUGE Update to the game! In this update, we have a new playable character, multiple stage overhauls,
GGPO ROLLBACK NETCODE, and more!
- New Character Added : Wendigo has been added to the playable roster, here is his bio:
The Spirit of Hunger and Greed has been awakened and is more ravenous than ever. Once an inhabitant of the cold forests in the northern regions of North America, his presence is now often felt near rural towns. Something has triggered his appetite and it’s uncertain what this could be. Although most people don’t believe in him and consider it a mere Native American legend, the Sasquatch people know him well and may know how to stop him. For that to happen, new alliances will need to be forged between humans and the Sasquatch if they can settle their differences.
- New Stage Added: The Winter Woods has been added to the game as a selectable stage, this is the home stage of the Wendigo.
- New Stage Added: The Realm of Agony has been added to the game as a selectable stage, this is the home stage of The White Lady
- New UI Changes We now have a completely reworked menu system, including a new main menu, character selection and more. Issues may still be present within this new UI so please feel free to report any issues to the team dev. We are still looking to improve our menu designs. Our new main menu now allows the usage of the mouse, this will combat issues of unmapped confirm buttons.
- Existing Stage Overhauls: All previous stages have changes to lighting and other additions to the background.
- GGPO ROLLBACK NETCODE: That’s right, we now have rollback netcode using GGPO! In its current state, you can play a 1 v 1 match. We are looking to expand on this in the future to allow for spectators, but as of now, have fun playing online with stable netcode!
- Epic Online Services : We now leverage Epic Online Services for Matchmaking and Online P2P connections, this allows cross play with users that have purchased the game on Epic Games Store.
- The Camera FOV has been altered in game to allow for a better view of the stage. The camera no longer follows the players in the corner and is now in a fixed state while in the corner.
- Frankenstein has new animations on his Gunshot special move.
- Frankenstein has new animation on his forward and backward walk cycles.
- Dracula’s Helper Isadora’s model has been altered.
