Some Endings: Alpha vs Storyboards
Added 2024-01-03 21:58:54 +0000 UTCđ Curious about what weâve been working on since Novemberâs alpha build?
Our team and playtesters experienced a few âsurprise deathsâ last fall â not only did Elysia misunderstand harmless words as warrants to kill players, but the implications behind these losses were also in their scrappiest stages!
Since then, weâve been improving Elysiaâs AI so she is less likely to jump to conclusions before resorting to insta-kills. As for those moments where Elysia truly believes she was wronged by the player⊠well, weâre finalizing some of the many bad ending animations to inform what that will look like.
If youâre open to teasers, check out a couple of our ending animations that weâre currently working on! Weâre including storyboards of those animations to give an idea of what the endings will look like in-game too. Weâre also including some early footage of that time Elysia ruthlessly murdered a member of our team who was met by "you dead :(" as a placeholder followed by an end screen explaining the cause of death. As our team animates each scene to perfection, we canât wait for you to collect all the endings and laugh/cry depending on which one you get.
Note that the animations arenât 100% polished yet. For instance, youâll notice a random cube dropping onto the summoning circle before turning into a sphere?? This will look totally different in the final product. Weâre curious if you can guess what led to either or both endings. Comment here or let us know what you think of these endings on Discord!
