  Devlog #3 (11 July 2023)

  This latest set of changes are more visual improvements than content but make a big difference to make the game feel better. These features will be further improved in the future and more features along these lines are in the pipeline. New Attack Animations: Vamps-Imulator has many weapons to choose from but the combat felt stale as the only real difference was that the amount of damage you were doing was changing. The latest change brings 6 new animations spread throughout the weapons. These animations are tied to specific weapons and some only appear once. Many of the weapons still have the same old animation but they are in the works to be ReVamped as well (pun intended!) {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/44143076/1b703382425b2edc9686e1071d3a4c893eb4de23.png {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/44143076/5ec7cee97e14dccbffae18d12973926ae2c50357.png {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/44143076/ec73b4c8f593b995ff554a5444628627fedd7b3b.png Improved AI during invasions: Previously the AI during an invasions was more A than I and struggled in some pretty significant areas. A solution existed but would cause many other things to break in the game. Finally it was time to take that step which meant a lot of bug testing to make sure the game is still playable. The game appears to be fully functioning again but please let us know if you run into any issues and what appears to have caused it. Twitch integration: One feature that has been considered for a long time is twitch integration. Vamps-Imulator has a lot of time for streamers to interact with their community and this is one area where the viewers can feel a little more involved. When enabled, viewers of the stream can use commands (!villager, !hunter, !zombie, !werewolf or !revenant) to have their names appear in the game as the respective types. While the viewers can't interact with the player, it does give some sense of community. Streamer Shoutout This streamer shoutout goes to Methodicalize. Check out Methodicalize on twitch.

  Devlog #2 (15 June 2023)

  Demo update: New update is now available! Attribute changes: The new changes to attributes are now available. Weapons vary on which will benefit from each attribute. This new change should allow players to use weapons long making diversity of builds more viable. Streamer Shoutout: This streamer shoutout goes out to Ninjamachine47. Checkout Ninjamachine on twitch. Ninjamachine is a social streamer who streams for fun and plays a variety of games. Extended Demo? Why did the streamer shoutout come early in this Devlog. Ninjamachine was streaming when Vamps-Imulator was revealed that the intended end of the demo could be skipped. Although the full game isn't available, the "thanks for playing screen" could be circumvented and you could resume hunting and leveling up and gathering better equipment (full version items, skills and crafting are still disabled in the demo). Instead of outright disallowing this from happening, here it how to perform the skip. After completing the "the last hunt of the demo" and being warned of the invasion, save the game before entering the invasion. Complete the invasion (win or lose) and return to the main screen. On the main screen load your save file and resume playing where you left off. The game will allow you to play on that save file for 30 minutes of total playtime before kicking you back to the main screen but hopefully this is enough to get a feel for the game. Summon changes: There appeared to be confusion regarding the use of summons in Vamps-Imulator. The purpose becomes clear upon entering the invasion but players felt that they should have the option to use the summons as they see fit. Vamps-Imulator is a game about balance, once being introduced to the mechanics, the player should understand the risk of the options in front of them and make the choices as they see fit. For that reason, summons can now be called to support you during a hunt. The new ability "Combative Summoning" is required to be able to do it and it costs a s...

  Devlog #1 (9 June 2023)

  Although the game is almost in a functioning state and theoretically, a player maybe able to beat the game, there is much work to be done. The general mechanics are most of the way working and a complete route is just shy of existing. Some of these features or functions may not be accessible in the demo as they will only occur after the events of the demo. The game will still take time to develop to allow for many diverse builds to be viable, balancing and of course bug fixing. Below are some of the areas where the game has been improved. A unique encounter: The hunts are set to be random and unique while interacting with villagers and hunters based upon previous interactions with the world. In order to prevent it from feeling to repetitive, a unique encounter was added that is entirely random. A new unique hunter has been added that is not only stronger but can disengage from the fight and leave you wounded and empty handed. Improved attributes: Many players assumed that attributes contributed to the players damage in some way. This hasn't been the case up until now. To further diversify the builds available, attributes will now directly give bonuses to weapons. The catch is that while knives and daggers scale with your dexterity, swords and axes will not (they will scale with strength instead). All weapons will still have a dexterity requirement in order to equip but only some will benefit directly from that attribute. Player portraits: Player portraits are limited in quantity as it hasn't been the highest in priority. Soon more portraits will become available to allow players to pick that vampire appearance the really speaks to them Streamer Shoutout: This streamer shoutout goes to Methodicalize. Check out Methodicalize on twitch. Methodicalize is a friendly variety streamer who is always willing to give tips and help anyone who visits the channel. The channel is an open atmosphere and like a brotherhood where all people are valued, (new and active followers).
