Onirism Spooky Halloween Update !

Onirism - Pizzanami

Halloween is here, and we have a few spooky surprises for you folks to play with while we finish up the next adventure update !

Middle School of the Dead
Cornbridge, United states of Crearia

The town of Cornbridge has fallen to the hordes of the undead.
Will you be able to unravel the town mysteries and escape the Slasher trying to catch you ?

This map is the biggest Tales map yet, and is made up of multiple areas. You will need Julie's help with her bus to move around, as going through the cornfields is very dangerous

The Perk machines and Perk system had a makeover ! They are no longer badge machines, but are instead little plushies dispensers, the Perk-a-Plushies !

The player will now be able to use 4 perks instead of 1, and we added two new perks:

Fairy dust: Let you use the Pixie Dash ability
Boom Slider: Sliding into an enemy will cause them to burst into an explosion
Those perks have been added to some of the older Tales maps

The Tortibubble perk had received a buff: Enemies coming into the bubble will start to slowly freeze over.
That's right, Freeze. Now Ice weapons also have the ability to freeze enemies ! This should give a massive buff to some weapons, and open up new strategies !

We also optimized AI behavior and fixed a lot of issues and bugs

We hope you enjoy this halloween update while we are still hard at work on the next part of the adventure: The Battle for the Popsicle Factory !

Welcome to Hunt ! The Goal of this mode is to survive multiple wave of enemies and get the higher score ! The more enemies you eliminate in a row the more points you get ! All survival maps have been reworked for hunt mode.

You will always start with the same equipment in every map of Hunt.

This is a Bot Spawner, you can activate it during the wave to spawn robots that will award cash ! Use these smartly, as they can be used to keep your combo up !

Meet the Maxcot ! He can spawn during waves randomly. Shoot him, he got a lot of pearls in his pockets

Here come the Corporation specialists ! They are units with special abilities that can spawn during waves to mess with the player, and try to put a stop to the match

- The Gunner ( HP: 300 / Shield: 300)
Equipped with a minigun, keep your distances and keep shooting to bring down his massive Hp pool, thanksfully he's pretty slow.

- The Sniper ( HP: 150 / Shield: 0)
He's the type to stay at a distance and deal massive damage with his rifle, but be careful as he can bring out a machinegun for close range combat ! He also have traps that he might put around the field, so be careful where you step.

- The Cloaker ( HP: 120 / Shield: 0)
She's the specialist with the least HP, To bad you can't see her. If you feel that she is close by, try to damage her to disable her cloak, otherwise she will use a barrage of melee attacks to quickly bring your health down, or blind you with flashbangs.

- The Engineer ( HP: 150 / Shield: 50)
If you see her, put her to sleep as soon as possible, otherwise she will start building sentry gun all over the map. She can also use forcefields to block your shots, and her welder deals massive damage at close range.

- The Grappler ( HP: 150 / Shield: 200)
The grappler is a specialist that focus on moving fast and bringing the player to her using her grapple arm to do a big uppercut. She can also charge at the player to push them back or use a shotgun attack.

- The Crusader ( HP: 250/ Shield: 0)
A dueling specialist, deal with the enemies around him first as he's going to need your full attention.
Quick to dodge, time your attacks perfectly otherwise you are going to be in trouble

The Specialists will now also appear in the adventure in Corporation controlled areas, so be careful
