Before Dawn - Devlog #2 (A Purge Game)

Hey! I’m baseparts. I’ve teamed up with another developer (@bigredgamer1) and we are currently working on a purge game called “Before Dawn” (originally named “Before Dusk”)

You can find the last devlog here:



(Warning: contains harsh gore and violence! Proceed with caution!)

So, what’s new?

New Features

  • Shotguns!
  • Testing Molotov and Grenade
  • New meshes for ripped limbs
  • More camera effects
  • Glass breaks when shot
  • Almost complete menu (separate game link)
  • Almost complete AI (separate game link)
  • Render distance for buildings

Changed Features

  • tons and tons and tons and TONS of bug fixes (no joke a lot)
  • major performance and memory optimization
  • rewritten character handler (gore, temperature, animations, etc)
  • MANY adjustments to gore
  • Cars have had slight adjustments to drifting, and running players over is more smooth
  • Particles now query to avoid new instances

Behind the Scenes Changes

Randomly generated buildings

We are now using a script that I made to generate buildings for the map! This will speed up the building process by a ton.



Map

The map is now work in progress (big thanks to @bigredgamer1)! We don’t have any test-ready places but here are some pictures:
