Hi everyone

It's Halloween again, and what is a better excuse to throw a spooky event challenging your survivability in the outskirts of Lord Craig's rural areas.



During Halloween, we have modified the Successor DEMO (for a limited time only) to contain the March of the Dead campaign instead of revenge.

1. Betrayal
   
2. March of the Dead

As Halloween dawns on Lord Craig's realm, the murky swamps churn with the resurrected dead. Once peaceful farms now lay desolate, haunted by zombies. Take on the role of Lord Craig and rally and forge a formidable party of brave souls. Prepare to descend into the Cave of Darkness, confronting the source of the ancient curse.

Can you defeat evil and reclaim the land? Test your mettle in the March of the Dead. The swamp awaits and, with it, a glimpse of the universe of Successor.



Update 0.7.4.23 Halloween edition.

Apart from making a ton of content, such as new sites and battle boards that we will introduce later, we have significantly improved the unit's pathfinding. Units can coordinate movements with teammates, avoid getting stuck when blocked, enemies actively approach even if unreachable, and world map pathfinding has been enhanced.

We hope you enjoy Marsh of the Dead, and please let us know in the community threads or on our Discord channel what you think and how we can improve.

And remember to wishlist


Kind regards and happy halloween

You might have missed it, but in this week's HUMANITY Hub stream, we were joined by Logun Keller, host of Keelhauled: A Sea of Thieves Podcast. We played some late-game STORY MODE stages and checked out some user-made pirate-themed HUMANITY stages (yes, really). Catch the replay here.

BUT, more importantly—you can join us every Wednesday for the HUMANITY Hub community stream. Austin and CJ are your guides as we dig deeper into the puzzle gameplay of HUMANITY and explore community-made content. Maybe we'll even play a stage YOU made. A guest often joins us to help us figure things out or design a new stage while we chat!

We play a little bit of STORY MODE, a little bit of USER STAGES, and we even dabble into the STAGE CREATOR—showing how easy it can be to use the flexible tools and make your own puzzles.

Howdy friend!

Happy to be able to show off our 3rd map Camp Osprey. With the completion of this map we are prepared to start wider testing of the game.

If you are interested in being a tester please join our discord and let us know!

Without further delay. Camp Osprey is a river cut map with military facilities on each side and a variety of crossing points

The circular layout has some asymetrical POI and provides a lot of verticality for different viewpoints and dense forests.


All dressed up for night fights!


The river is the main focal point and defines movement






The large warehouse area provides vaired cover and fire positions for tactical gameplay



In addition the military base in the middle provides an interesting pass through and combat area


We hope to get Osprey into testing asap and see how it plays!

With this post our base maps are complete and entering into the home stretch. We need helpers and testers from the community so please.. Jump in the discord and say hello!

Cheers!

Misultin Team.

Going forward with basic Sound FX.
I'll obviously have to go back to do everything right, but it is a start.

Also improved the game slightly, less latency, several card bug fixes.
