NextFest Day 3 // Dereliction 2022 update 0.23
There is no throw weapon button - Picking up a third weapon will drop currently equipped weapon Call / send Vanth is now separate from use button - currently bound to Space bar, Right thumb stick button, and Dpad Up. Im testing out the options to find what works best.
To help cover some of the mechanics of the game easier, I added some tips to the loading screen. I know its not the perfect solution, but hopefully it will help until I improve the layout of the tutorial and starting area
Ive tidied up the UI, and made sure that everything looks a little cleaner and sharper. Especially at higher resolutions. The compass also got a much needed overhaul. My computer has been giving me frame issues, and I may have oversimplified the art, files, etc, trying to fix this. I will be adding more quality options for those who have faster systems that can run the game with the shadows, the SSR, ambient occlusion, and such. I will also have some color and gamma settings in the near future to work with the different screens that everyone has.
I am trying really hard to keep the tutorial quick, easy, and skippable. If the player already knows what to do, it can be done in less than a minute. Thats for whatever reason they would have to do it again, for example if they lost all the settings, or its on a different system etc. There are more prompts for the player to go the the elevator. This is where the actual game is. And the entrance area is mostly there as a safe environment for the player to start in, figure out the controls [previewyoutube=9QwVULak3H8;leftthumb][/previewyoutube] All in all, I feel that I have made some great progress, thanks to everyone who pointed out any issues or confusion they were having. The game now is way different than it was just 2 days ago, and I hope that everyone likes the improvements. And those who didnt like the demo as it was, I hope that they can give it another look! Thank you again, I hope this wasnt too long of a rant. I will continue to work on the demo throughout the Festival and after.
Cheers, ~SALT_

Hello everyone happy NextFest! It has been a stellar few days so far. I have gotten a lot of feedback that has helped me fix a tonne of issues with the demo.
Heres an update on all the changes to Dereliction 2022 in the past few days:
So, let me start by mentioning that this demo is in pre alpha, and the actual game is way off. I have so much that needs to get done, or fixed.
The reason I put this demo up for this Festival is to get the amazing feedback that I have gotten, fix any and all issues that come up, and continue to work on the game.
Thank you to everyone who has tried the demo, added it to their wishlist, streamed the game and posted comments. It means a lot and helps so so much.
Control changes:
There is no throw weapon button - Picking up a third weapon will drop currently equipped weapon Call / send Vanth is now separate from use button - currently bound to Space bar, Right thumb stick button, and Dpad Up. Im testing out the options to find what works best.
Quick tips in loading screen:

Hud and UI:

Dereliction is a first person Co-Op Xeno-Horde Procedural Rogue-like Shooter:
You wake up, crashed onto a barren planet. Around you there is nothing but hostile wasteland, battered by wicked wind and storm.
There is a lone outpost barely visible nearby. Crawling slowly, with oxygen low, you finally reach the open entrance. Within the doorway a ramp seems to lead down into an underground facility.
You decide you must enter this facility and hope to find a way to escape this wretched place.
But you feel that you are not alone.
+ + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + +
Within this old derelict structure, filled with ancient machinery. The lights are dim. Your oxygen generators can barely fill your reserves. Your immediate goal will be to find a way to send out an SOS - to try to contact someone, anyone, and be rescued.
That is not the only thing you find when you wake up. You now learn why you had felt so uneasy; the Dross. A long-forgotten entity, lost seemingly for an eternity, with endless claws and endless teeth.
To survive – to escape – you will need to fight through the hordes of these enemies and find a way off of this planet.
Fight against the Dross. They are vicious. They are endless. They are always around you. They want only to consume you.
Fight through their endless world. There will be procedural generated levels, deeper and deeper into the nest.
It will be brutal. But your overpowering arsenal of tools and weapons will certainly help.
+ + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + +
Randomly generated levels - Each level is created as unique for each player, getting more complex as the difficulty increases.
Strict Rogue-Like genre - If you die, you die.
Advanced enemy AI - Based on the player's skills and tactics, the enemy AI will adapt to combat the player at every turn.
Upgrades and arsenal - Upgrade your capable arsenal of weapons and items to use even more powerful weapons and items.
+ + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + +
