Shields Update 1.21

Hello everyone! I am happy to roll out update 1.21. In this update :

  • New mechanic: Shields. When activated, the shield will block all damage as long as you have enough power ( power - damage ). When the attack is blocked, the attacker is bounced off of the victim, while both players get stunned
  • Health regen. Until now there was no way to regenerate health. This is now solved by giving health after a successful attack. Upon attack the attacker is rewarded with health equal to half of the damage he/she inflicted. This will make fights more dynamic, longer and will even things out in the long run. Upon more testing it is possible that this will be adjusted and/or changed.
  • Added visual flares on players to indicate if someone is moving or looking towards you
  • Players can now change game language. Lithuanian, Russian, Polish, Romanian, , Espaniol, France etc. Currently languages are auto-translated (Googler Translater)
  • Various game settings as well as input bindings are now saved to disk
  • Some other fixes/adjustments
I hope you like it and of course, as always and kind of feedback, thoughts, ideas and questions are welcome! Either here on Steam Community or in [url=https://discord.gg/JcvhM58xdW]Short Circuit Discord server. Any feature ideas, changes are welcome and will be considered as the game is in an early and evolving phase.

  • Short Circuit is an experimental game made in the spirit of a classic award-winning Half-Life mod Earth's Special Forces. Players compete in arena maps set around various macro-sized electronics, playing classic game modes such as Team Death Match, Free For All, Capture The Flag or unique sports game modes such as Zap-Ball.

    Short Circuit features a unique style of movement and fighting mechanics. Players are competing against each other flying around at high speeds in open macro-sized electronics-themed arena maps, trying to catch each other with melee attacks, while optionally also competing to score points by capturing flags or doing other game-mode specific tasks.

    After a successful attack, player gains Charge, which can be activated at any time. And then, for a short time, players actions and properties (damage, speed, recharge rate etc.) are multiplied by the Charge Multiplier. The more charge you accumulate, the higher your Charge Multiplier is. Ever wanted to become super-saiyan? But use your Charge deliberately, its not easy to get and it drains fast!

    During your fight, your actions will cost you your Power, and when your power drains, you have to recharge it, but be careful, you can't move when you're recharging and you become an easy target.

    Managing to have your Power high, be faster and in a better position than your opponent, while also trying to get your Charge on, is where maneuvering tactics and split decisions come into play. Short Circuit aims to provide a unique PvP experience, with multiple factors that players will be able to master and win the fight based on their wits, instincts and reaction (or just pure luck)!
