- Update Build 0.1.4.1 is up! - 7 September 2021
Nelo has now using UE4 4.25 to take advantage of newer graphics hardware and DirectX 12. Nelo now runs in DirectX 12 out of the box which allows a much greater performance boost on newer graphics cards and faster load times. We are able to get an average framerate of 140-150 fps on a single RTX2070 at 1080p. We have been testing newer rendering features like raytracing with the game but we decided not to go that way and prioritize getting framerate boosts instead. -Hit frames are more exaggerated with well time shield blocks and some melee attacks. -Shield blocks takes off 20% of shield energy on initiation to counter spam blocking. -Fixed bug with some Endurance levels displaying campaign HUD elements. -Fixed some bounding issues and polished effects for some projectiles. Price Drop. Since it's been over a year since we last had an update, we feel pretty bad about it. We are aware that…
- Update Build 0.1.4.0 is up! - 28 June 2020
Major Features Reworked Levels Aurora and Plemniba have been reworked from the ground up and Moon and White Blazar have been heavily modified to have generally better pacing than before. Most levels are now more open and some objectives can be completed in any order the player chooses. Rally points are no longer used. Instead, we broke up chapters into smaller pieces. 3d map viewer While Act I levels are generally flat, many future levels will have more verticallity in the layouts with tunnels and pathways spanning across multiple tiers. We had to redesign the map system to work with these layouts. we came up with a 3d map viewer that can be navigated in 3 dimensions. map geometry above the user cursor will be rendered as transparent to allow better clarity. Wall run upgrade We thought about just giving the player unlimited wall jumps. Then we thought it would be cooler to just have the…
- Update 0.1.4.0 Preview - 24 January 2020
New level design approach, One of the biggest changes to the game is we have redesigned several of the single player levels. Two of the levels from Act I have been completely redone and some of the Act II levels have been reworked as well. We wanted these levels to have better pacing and be more simplified and ‘Open’ than before. Originally these levels would take 1-2+ hours to get through grinding through room to room waves of enemies and platforming. The levels should now take 15-30 minutes to get through with more freedom for how the player progresses. You now progress through levels by collecting fusion nodes earned by exploring the map. These nodes can be collected in any order the player chooses. We tried to make walkways wider and building further apart in many areas to allow more running room. Other Changes Wallrun upgrade When designing these more open levels we thought about t…
