New Scaffold Shit!
********************
So, how do you do the new stuff on the scaffold to create some sick new highspots, what are the known issues, and what are we planning on adding and improving already for the next update? Read on!
You can still win a Scaffold match the old fashioned way by performing a Special Grapple at the right time and location. It’s almost f’n impossible. So, are intrepid lead programmer, Burning Devil, spent a shit ton of time adding the ability to knock off the scaffold with a strike and win that way as well. Simple? Yes. Easy? Also yes! All you want to do is get your opponent into a standing stunned state near the edge of the scaffold platform and give him a solid strike to watch him fly off the scaffold in real time ragdoll physics reaction. You can even try to set it up juuuuuuuust right to see him smash through a table on the way down or (if you’re really talented) get him to bounce off the top rope New Jack style lol!

HOWEVER! We already see lots of cool areas that we can improve on. So, before you spend your sexy and valuable free time writing up a comment about something we’re already planning for check these notes of known issues for the next update:

-We plan to add the option for you to choose exactly with how much force and in what direction the opponent reacts when he ragdolls.
-For such a big epic moment the scaffold ragdoll could be more dramatic so we’re already planning on adding a dramatic camera option to Ragdoll KO’s similar to what you see when blood happens and the camera zooms in etc.
-We want Screenshot Mode to give you more control over capturing that moment so we intend to extend the screenshot camera options.
-We want to add this INSANELY AWESOME new ragdoll KO mechanic to to other match moments where it could be awesome such as the Cell match, fighting on the entrance stage platforms, and the upcoming ladder match.

Enjoy!

Hey everyone!

Just in time for Halloween we've made some improvements and the TAIPEI DEATH MATCH now has instant blood from the very first punch and LOTS of it! Enjoy, you sick bastards!

ECDUB! ECDUB!

Hey y'all!

An early look at the new v1.29 build will be live in Steam just a few minutes after you read this! WOOHOO!

This build includes the new 'knockback' ability for ragdoll selling when you strike an opponent who is in a STUNNED state. Quick way to get them in that state is to simply pick them up from the mat after a big move and you'll have a quick STUNNED window to send them flying!

Now, about the TaiPei match...I kinda fucked up.

Do you see that awesome new blood in the screenshot above? Sick, eh! We've got this new blood system that will send blood splatter flying and it will stick to damn near everything it lands on. Ropes, opponent, drip down the apron, and more. But we have to dial it back and optimize it because it's really hard on the frame rate. So in this build the blood doesn't look like this screenshot YET.

And one more dumbass thing I did. I didn't realize until just a few days ago that we want the blood to start right from the first punch to the head without wearing your opponent down first. The instant blood is sorta the whole point of this match and right now it's not behaving quite the way we want. We're working on it but I wanted to show you where we're at today and the next update likely later this week is intended to have the full on instant blood and brutal blood bath effects as well.

So thank you again for your kind patience and support while you check out this build for Patreon supporters only right now :)

Build notes:

- Added new Taipei Death Match to match select menu

- Added new Corner Grapple punching animation. When your opponent is thrown into turn buckle, grapple, then press the A button(Strike) to perform corner strikes

- Added new Taipei Death Match Type. Very bloody match but very cool to play. A simple Hardcore match but now with Taipei Wraps in shattered glass make the damage even more intense. Perform the Corner Strikes in this match type will cause more damage and have your opponent bleeding uncontrollably.

- Replaced blood system with the new Volumetric Blood FX. This amazing and can be used in many great Hardcore matches. I kind of toned down a few things to make it not too over the top but the results are pretty nice. Cant wait to fully optimize this asset for more amazing things in the future.

- Added new RagDoll Graphic

- Added tutorial info to pre-match loading screens

- Added new KTFO Graphic

- Added new Power Cutter Animation under Special Moves

- Added new FacePaint selections


There it is! Thanks again and please share as much feedback as you'd like because it really helps us improve each update!

Halloween update coming soon!

In keeping with our long running tradition of releasing a special update every Halloween we've been working on something super special for ya this year. On top of a lot of bug fixes, improvements, new CAW assets and animations, we've got something really special planned in the form of a new bloody hardcore match type that has never EVARRRRRR been in a wrestling game before and it's a damn shame.

Can you guess what it is from the pic attached?




Axl and Ian would be very proud ;)

Stay tuned!!!
