For June 2023 we are (very briefly) showing off one of the major new features for Brigador Killers, which we're calling map connections. [previewyoutube=1sxs1NDXhHc;full][/previewyoutube]

WHAT ARE MAP CONNECTIONS?

Map connections are a means for the player to transition to different areas without resorting to overmaps menus. If you are familiar with Brigador: Up-Armored Edition's Freelance mode, those used overmaps menus to handle the different map choices within a run of maps. For BK, were building a contiguous set of spaces that you can travel back and forth between, giving the game's world a clear sense of structure that you navigate and explore. In the video above you can see a very basic implementation of this in action. The player gets into a vehicle and drives towards the edge of the first map, hitting the first map connection volume that will advance both the infantry character and the car they're driving to the next area. The player then drives all the way through the second map still in the same car, hitting the next connection. They then get out of the car in the third and final test map, shoot away some props and hop onto a gurney.
