I got really sick earlier this month and am trying to catch up on work for the big update. More news on this tomorrow. In the meantime, we're putting up testing branches again for new AI testing.
Warning: Your followers may get stuck in bathrooms pretty easy until I fix those tomorrow.
Try testing to see if the difficulty changed much with these changes. Especially check if it's easier to run through big groups of zombies as a human or as a dog.
HOW TO INSTALL: Right click Death Road to Canada on Steam. Go to Properties. Go to Betas. Select Testbranch, no password necessary.
Changes:
- New AI for follower navigation, they try to anticipate obstacles a bit better.
- If a follower gets stuck on furniture, will try to destroy obstacle with their weapon.
- Player can no longer squeeze through as many tiny cracks as you could before, especially with car wrecks.
- Player and followers now have a smaller frame, to attempt to squeeze through obstacles better.
- Zombie grip is now 25% better, to compensate for the smaller player frames.
- Combat and tactics order fixes. Followers should change orders/tactics more swiftly and reliably.
- Anime Girl's wand works properly again.
- That one GHOST CAR bug where you became a floating spirit when entering a car maybe fixed.
Death Road to Canada is a Randomly Generated Road Trip Simulator. You control and manage a car full of jerks as they explore cities, recruit weird people, argue with each other, and face gigantic swarms of slow zombies.
Death Road is built for replay value. Everything is randomized: locations, events, survivor appearances and personalities. There's a different story every time you play, set in a world that doesn't take itself too seriously.
Death Features:
Up to 500 zombies can hunt you down at a time. Fight them, try to squirm past, or run.
Use the character creator to put yourself, friends, and family in the game. Have them show up at random to get eaten!
Find special and rare events, weapons, and characters with strange abilities.
Make tough choices in Interactive Fiction events. Get different options and results based on the traits of your party members.
Teach a dog how to drive a car.
Throw chairs. Get your characters strong enough to throw large sofas.
Most family friendly zombie apocalypse game on the market! Any gore explosion is in a cute style. We censor the word d*ngus once.
