Congo has been out now for over a week. It's been a great experience for us and hopefully you, the players, have had an equal great experience.
We also recently published our v0.1c update, which featured some of the changes which had been relayed back to us through our forums[congothegame.boards.net], through Twitter and some of the playthroughs people have been doing . It had fixed some of the main, pressing issues of the foliage blocking the camera, progress bars and a few more hints to what to do, but we want to push it further and let you all into what we are planning to do in the future. We have finalised our v0.2 change list which I will post down below and we are also working on releasing our v0.1d in the mean time, hopefully soon after this weekend.
v0.2 Plans:
New Game Mode - Defense
Defense mode will be more of a traditional horde-style game mode where all 4 players must defend an objective for as long as possible, travelling out into the jungle where possible to collect supplies and equipment.
4 New Defense Levels
Four new levels for Defense game mode.
Singleplayer Mode
Currently, singleplayer mode plays like ultra-hardcore difficulty. We are working on several changes to make a solo-play experience more forgiving by adjusting spawn levels and item drops. We will also be introducing a new item to help survival
Hunting Knife
When equipped with a hunting knife, you have the ability to kill a demon once they have jumped you. This is a one-use item and can be found dropped around the jungle. In singleplayer mode you will start equipped with at least one.
New Demon Type
Making more of presence in the jungle now are a new type of demon. Smaller, faster, more agile but less dangerous than their bigger brothers, they dart out of the vegetation and knock you to the ground, leaving you vulnerable to further attack.
Spectator Mode
We will be adding a spectator mode for dead players. Currently, once you have been incapacitated you are left to watch your body.. Not that fun, so in v0.2, if you are killed you can follow your teammates.
Voice Chat In-Game
In-Game Control Options
Ability to view the controls without having to look at the manual.
More Screen Resolution Options
Update to Unreal Engine
Updating to the later versions of UE4 will bring a number of improvements and optimisations.
Bug fixes and Optimisations
Look forward to hearing everyone's thoughts on the plans for v0.2, for v0.1d we will be adding in more a few more navigation tools, buttons for the menus, fixed issues with the Cancel buttons and fixed an issue where guns weren't animating / sounding off on the Client.
See you in the jungle!
