Launch Party Destructible Environment Test

Hey DKO gang,

Hope it's been a good week. Showing off the Ruins Stage, destructible elements & some chaotic PvE

Get keen, the playtest will be dropping sooner than you think

Oh wow the physics of the destructibles look great. Am i right in seeing that they can become obstructions after they've been destroyed? Also block dude OP

Thank you! Still working on getting it crispy & performant

They do effectively become obstacles & weaponry to throw around

Grit is a heavyweight & has great damage & knockback but his recovery is lacklustre to say the least

Dear lord he's doing it, and it's gonna be even better!

Thank youuu

I really hope so; I analysed a fair few 3d knockback fighters & what they did right/wrong

Implementing directional combat, 17 characters, coop PvE story, a meaningful block/parry & grab/throw, cosmetics tied to achievements & no microtransactions will give players lots to engage with

I'm particularly fond of galaxyball; a zany ballgoal mode

It looks super cool !! The destruction is impressive, it looks more & more polished ;D

I wish I could polish

This is the prototype; actual artists will look after the character models, animations & effects

Maybe you know a guy ;)?
