Hello everyone! This week, we don't have a specific dev blog by one of our team members, but we thought we'd let you know where we are currently at!
There are only Two weeks left until we release Fate of Factions! It's a little stressful, but the team has picked it up in stride and is continuing to push forward and finish our last sprint out strong.
We have four classes into our game now, the Warrior, the Ranger, the Rogue and the Mage. Each one has its own strengths and weaknesses, and one of our major jobs going forward is to make sure they are balanced, which is easier said than done. Currently, the game plays through two arenas: the citadel and the mountain arena, allowing players to be able to win an arena and continue to a second one, before seeing the final victory screen.
Going forward, the artists plan to finish the other three arenas: the Coast, the Forest, and the Swamp. In addition, they are working on finishing UI and other particle effects, as well as prepping many of our marketing materials that we'll use to help show off our final game!
The programmers plan to take the last three arenas and add them to the play sequence, as well as doing a LOT of playtesting and eventual bug fixes that will present themselves.
The music team has been hard at work creating demos of our different arena tracks, menu tracks, and sound effects. Their hard work is creating music that we believe will help enhance our game a lot.
Our team is working hard to finish the semester out strong, and we hope you all enjoy Fate of Factions once it is live.
Choose your class, fight until you’re last man standing, and raise your banner high. Your efforts will decide the Fate of Factions!
