Fixed achievement bug

Servers will be down momentarily.

- More damage validation checks.
- Frag mag now actually works again.
- Some placeholder audio and increased recoil for Hammer-Head shots.
- Warrant standard grenade fuse time from **0.75** > **1** seconds.
- Warrant standard grenades can now be disabled.
- Nano-wiring a projectile/device that can be disabled will disable it until released (making returning to sender easier with Augmented Nano-wire).
- Warrant grenade explosion VFX larger to reflect their actual effectiveness.
- T-lock ammo overrides all penetration, headshot multiplier, damage range and velocity modifiers.
- T-lock ammo explosive damage decoupled from the direct hit damage. Instead is calculated entirely by the overall RPM of the weapon to make it more consistent across all weapons and unaffected by damage modifiers.

Before it was a basic generic shooting roguelite on a topdown 2D perspective... boring.

(Not that it was bad, but that wasn't what I really had in mind...)

Now as you can see, I basically remade the game from ground up.

After my PC got fried up, I got really demotivated to work on the old linear calamity and eventually this lead to me abandoning the project entirely...

Until I got back to playing some games I liked, such as darkest dungeon and something clicked after I played through some weeks and stumbled into the thing from the stars and I had an idea to go back to Linear Calamity with some new found passion.
Also, yeah, college sucks and I got burn out from it but anyways.

Now the game works as a normal horror game, I decided to play a lot with sounds and how they would affect the game, my early prototype had some potential to a weird sound visualization...

As you can see, those white lines are sound.

And they bounce around revealing the map.

BUT WAIT THERE'S MORE

I started working with an inventory and got rid of the old shooting robot things, it wasn't really what I had in mind. Also light decreases over time, so you need to keep looking for torches if you want to keep seeing.

Later I changed the character design and everything else.

And now the game is a survival horror with all of the secrets you will suffer a lot to find! JUST LIKE THE OLD GAME!

Yeah, I still use a lot of the roguelike formula, but with a twist, instead of having those "oh I find coins and upgrade my meta character on the hub" I'm using more events that shape and unlock new things during a run, knowledge is your best weapon here.

Keep yourself sane...

AND BURN

BURN THE WITCH!

Hey Commanders,

I know I’ve been radio silent for a while… truth is, I was going through a bit of a rough patch. Solo development can take its toll sometimes. But I’ve kept working behind the scenes, and I’ve got some exciting progress to share!

I’ve been improving the enemy AI so they make better tactical decisions—taking cover, choosing smarter positions, and coordinating attacks. Flanking them won’t be so easy anymore!

I’ve started working on the game’s soundtrack, aiming for something that feels both epic and tactical. Music that enhances the mood of each battle without overwhelming the strategy.

One of the features I’m most excited about: a Map Design Mode! Players will be able to build their own battlefields and later use them in Skirmish Mode. It’s still early in development, but the foundation is in place.

Thanks for sticking with the project. A World at War: Tactics is a long journey, but every step forward matters. See you on the battlefield!
