Gunslugs: Rogue Tactics v0.0.15 – Inventory and Take-downs

Gunslugs: Rogue Tactics v0.0.15 – Inventory and Take-downs

It’s been a lot of tinkering and hard-work on this, so that explains why it took me 2 weeks to release this update, but it’s a nice one!  I finally caved in to the idea of having an inventory in the game, so the first step was made towards that. To activate the current inventory, long-press the weapon-swap button.

Another nice feature that took a bit more time to get it all working nicely, was adding the “take-down” action. You can now sneak up on enemies, and an on-screen prompt will show you the “press [A] to take down”. Press it, hold it, and you should be able to take-down an enemy without bullets, melee weapons or noise!  You can drag that body around and throw it somewhere.  Makes me feel so cool every time I do this action!

Also added the first steps towards XP and skill-points (the points aren’t really in the game yet, but the XP bar is there). And another take on the status-bar.

I’ll also be talking about most of these changes in next Thursdays youtube vlog, so make sure to keep an eye on that.

As always just grab your copy from Patreon and dive into it!

Full changes list:

  • added: first phase of turning the action-bar into a proper xp/skill-point system

  • added: enemy soldier “take-down” when nearby
