Controls n stuff


While awaiting graphics for the new enemy I've been working one a few quality of life improvements to the game.

I've added two menu options - one lets you change the difficulty while playing. So if you choose a difficulty level that feels to hard, you can now change it mid-game without having to start from scratch again.
I've also, per request, tested out a control scheme that lets you strife left and right. In this control scheme, button B will not swap weapons but you would instead need to use the crank to swap out weapons. B will still be used to open doors. While holding down B you can press left and right to strife left and right on the map. This does mean you can't rotate the camera while strafing :) There is only so much you can do with the controls ;)

The player can switch both these in game using the menus.

Strafing looks sort of like this:

This is'nt out in a released version yet - I think I will hold off until I got the new enemy. More of a show n tell :) let me know what you think about it!

Happy friday to everyone, hope your having a lovely weekend :)

Thanks for taking my comment into account, can't wait to strafe !

Thanks for the tip :)

I'm enjoying the outdoor areas in version 1_6.  They definitely add some variety!  I'm excited to check out the strafing controls.

Thanks :) I’ve tested out the strafing a bit, it does change up it a bit. Gonna rework some maps for the new enemy type, I think strafing can be cool for that. Thanks again for the positive feedback!
