Loving the looks of this, however i wish to see a "heavy sword." Drop the attack speed down to half, then double the damage, and make each slash look like it would easily cleave flesh and would shatter bones.
It will be available on Apple TV first. The iPad/iPhone version is going through final testing and will also be submitted for review soon.
Player attack animation doesn't really look that good. It should probably have a slower pre-hit part and after that - the actual hit, wich should be much faster than it is now.
We've come a long way since Dungeon Bandit! Better sword animations may be added later. I also wanted a heavy attack where you would hold to charge it up, and some other environmental hazards. Had to draw the line somewhere to get it ready in time for the Apple TV. Things are looking good on the iPhone version and it should be ready very soon.
Heavy Blade is available on Apple TV now! The IOS version is waiting for review and will be a universal purchase once available.
Awesome... The appstore definitely needs a realtime, non-tiled first person dungeon crawler right now. Looking forward to this... Im still not convinced with Heavy Sword for the title after seeing the videos, although the Heavy Sword might be the bad guy's signature weapon of sorts, which would make senses by then.
This game started out as a turn based dungeon crawler like Legend of Grimrock or Dungeon Master, but since that came out on iOS it was changed to allow free movement and gameplay more like the original Doom. I like the way it turned out "Heavy" also refers to the style of music in the game. There are no puzzles in the game or anything that slows the gameplay down. It's just pure action, of course you're free to explore and look around when you've cleared an area. It's a really a great game for the Apple TV because it can be played with the simple remote. If you like games like Doom or Destiny you'll like this one.
I love the idea to use the doom style view I hope it doesn't sit in review forever cause I am super excited to play this
