Overgrowth Alpha 164 changes - Wolfire Games

[MetaKnightsDog]

I'm still traumatized by the blood highlight in Alpha 139 or something...

[bladerj]

they should give some silly name and copyright the blood system to seel to shooting games.

[waran4]

0:30 - SPARTAAA!

[ReaperFromROBLOX]

Ohhh.. Please... Multiplayer...

[Dealer486]

This don't work for me I have no cuts even in alpha 169

[MrNordicWarrior123]

Epic!

[wthrfish]

1:00 "I give zero fucks."

[THEalmighty51]

will there be a story?

[ObeseNinjaFTW]

its cool how 4 guys can make a game that looks better than most games made by big companies and its not even finished

[Quaalz]

@ObeseNinjaFTW - It's all about the passion.

The big companies have a big lack of that.

[Cavemanbennett]

i cant fking believe this..i came...and i did so each time i heard weapon clash sound?

[ComputerHRD]

:29 ouch...

[BandosGodDragon]

Can I preorder this game now? And can I do it with a paysafecard? If not, where can I purchase it after it comes out? Will it be on steam?

[KablamX]

@BandosGodDragon It will be on Steam.

[BandosGodDragon]

@KablamX Thanks :D

[Quaalz]

@BandosGodDragon - It will be on Steam, but to enjoy it now just simply google "Overgrowth" and click on the first link. Then click "preorder now". You can pay through PayPal, AmazonPayments or Google Checkout .

[BandosGodDragon]

@Quaalz Yeah I'm planning to, but it's not really cheap. I would pay 20$ but it's an awesome game so I'll buy it in a week or so :D Fu the price! I just want the game!

[Quaalz]

@BandosGodDragon - Remember this is not a big company that want money. This is four guys making a game. Support them and the game will get better. And honestly is not expensive at all.

[BandosGodDragon]

@Quaalz Well yeah. Do you know when will it come out? I wanna pay with a paysafecard on steam. I don't have paypal :(

[phoenixstorms9]

0:58 I've never seen such realistic bleeding in a video game!

[billytamer]

0:29 being educated about something... see something even cooler that he doesnt even comment on... such is the way of these videos!

[borchy182]

very similar of this game is: lugaru

[MrsicoTube]

@borchy182 Oh god I hope your trolling

[Big5000K]

@borchy182 Really? It was made by the same people, this is a sequel.

[BassPounderX]

this game needs a weak animation to tell how much health the player or ai has becasuse i find myself fighting then out of nowhere a single hit kills me and i had no way to tell if i was weak or not

[deadly840]

@BassPounderX There probably will be implement a same system like in Lugaru, where your character looks tired and your screen becomes slightly blurry when you are on low health.

[BassPounderX]

@deadly840 I never played Lugaru so I wouldn't know but something I think they should work on is a graphics options menu so people can play the alpha on low end computers and to optimize the physics and blood system because the game runs like 60+fps but when 2 bodies interact or someone bleeds I get like 10fps but asides that I think this game is epic as it is now I can't wait for it to be finished.

[deadly840]

@BassPounderX After David will have optimized everything it run much better but first the core game has to be implemented;

0:55

ZERO. FUCKS. GIVEN.

[1One2TwosAndPie]

aside from hit reactions I think you should work on the blood splatter on weapons, the static look is fine for a little blood but when the weapon is coated in blood it looks too thick and should be dripping

[FrendlyGamer]

how can I get my game in full screen ? it's just a little window for now.

[siggibiggy]

@FrendlyGamer Google it. Or you go to some config file in the alpha game and set the screen to bigger

[FrendlyGamer]

@siggibiggy Thanks, I fixed it just after posting this ><'

[MilosCsrb]

better than tekken and mortal combat

[MilestonePictures]

This is why independent developers deserve more support.

[zezsn1p3r]

I wish that when you fell you could like fall on your knife if you aren't careful.

[Archerthief00]

I don't have the game, so I don't know if this is in already, but may I suggest ranged weapons? Like a bow? ;)

[bethesda423]

I just want them to make it faster!!!!,

[SpengbabTheBlighted]

-this combat system

-two experienced players of the game

Holy fuck.

[cam75501]

now we need to have injury reactions

[siggibiggy]

I want my brazilian jiu-jitsu Bear!

[pixelissue]

the combat mechanics in Overgrowth are some of the best I've ever seen.

[SeanGatchell]

@pixelissue If only a Prince of Persia game could take advantage of this precedent! Amazing that teams with hundreds of employees and millions of dollars haven't produced anything nearly as fluid and dynamic as this yet.

[pixelissue]

@SeanGatchell totally agree. The big companies will have a design checklist that they delegate to the programmers and character animators, Wolfire's approach is much more natural, inspirational and educational!

[TheMranchorman]

demo?

[MrDanielSonSon]

so what is this game even about. all i see is updates with art and combat. it looks very interesting and i want to buy it but i need more information. if i pre order it will it take the money out now? or sometime later? and how long has this project been in production? is the alpha just a sandbox?

[Nixdb]

@MrDanielSonSon Play the demo of Lugaru (Overgrowth's predecessor) to see what OG is expected to be like. If you preorder then it will take the money now, you will be able to play the prerelease versions and you will get the finished version when it is released. I don't know how long it has been in production, but is still lots of fun to play in the mean time. Alpha is pure sandbox, there are maps but no objectives unless you download a community map or make one yourself in the inbuilt mapeditor

[siggibiggy]

This is looks really alike to how I imagine a game to be made if I ever where to make one. It is so fucking amazing because it's exactly what I would want in my game. Well... not rabbits but Honey Badger Doesn't Give A Shit. What I would is to add decapitation when hitting with.. like.. swords. And have some sort of.. make the engine like that the rabbits have blood inside them and if you punch/stab a hole in them it bleeds like that. And you can rip limbs off so even more blood comes out. :)

[cooliodude96529]

@siggibiggy umm... as far as i know, they DO bleed from holes. Some advancd plolygonic algorithm or something tracks woudns in models and causes blood to come out correspondingly. I dont know about decapitation and amputation, but a cut to the neck is sooooo messy.

[siggibiggy]

@cooliodude96529 Amputation in the only thing missing for the "brutal" part of the game to be done. And probably fix the splattering of the blood. Make it more ... I don't know. I don't know how it would look like in real life cause I've never seen it.

[triforceman12]

Earlier I said I couldn't wait for this game. I really couldn't.

Installing Alpha 164 now :D

[DLTAJohnny]

DO this: when you sneak behind a rabbit with a knife and you press rmb, he slices the throat :D

[TheAstroSteve]

It would be cool if powerful attacks with weapons could dismember opponents to give you a permanent advantage. Or even cut them in half!

[TheDarkscare]

Is there a chance that we can pay with a paysafecard in the future ? When i can do this i will probably buy it on the same day when its possible ^^

[fighterpiolt1992]

when will the linux version be released?

[Dimarelos24]

I would preorder it, if there was a PaySafe payment option...

Too bad...

[silenthunder6]

@Dimarelos24 Whats wrong with google checkout?

[Dimarelos24]

@silenthunder6 I don't have a credit card...

[silenthunder6]

@Dimarelos24 Slight problem

[tlilmiztli]

If I could play that fights with knive and RAT character I would be in heaven :D Amazing game! Love that details you guys trying to implement.

[DarkFailure]

Any chance you will add water to the game? I think it would give players way more possibilities in level creation.

[Ravenous2k10]

Possible thrown weapons? It would mean that you could sacrifice combat ability for a sneaky attack. :D For example, sniping with a spear from afar or hurling a sword into a leaping opponent as a last-ditch defense would be pretty bad-ass.

[DarkUchiha95]

I am buying this game immediately. Keep up the good work guys, this game has sooooooo much potential, as if it weren't great already!

[NorthCornerGamer]

OOOOOOOOOMG THAT LOOOKS FRIKKIN GOOD!!! Can I have fun with this game without having programming expirience?

[Jabulon88]

i loved lugaru! cant wiat for this

[triforceman12]

Can't wait for this game!

[Tutorialandgamplay99]

I wanna be able trowing knives

[frobie54]

Turner's been dying less at the end of these videos.

[fantomzed]

NOSTALGIA IN THE BEGINNING.

[Loo0Lzz]

Long wepons should dismember enemies :P

[TheStupidguy12]

Still waiting for the whaleman playable character to show up...

[JakyRedEyes]

@TheStupidguy12 I want a crocodile :P, game gives me B&W vibes, its excellent, going to pre orders oon.

[TheWaplespunk]

@JakyRedEyes maybe the crocodile could be a boss in the game

[BrandonBlaze904]

@TheStupidguy12 lol whaleman just looks retarded. 

[JakyRedEyes]

@TheStupidguy12 Not going to happen, he will be a "World Boss" if anything.

[sapphique14]

You need to have those characters in the game!

[Supershinylad]

I pre ordered :) I'm glad to support you guys, I just wish my pc could run it smoothly.

[kemoniwilliams]

Can someone please help me with this bug, well graphical bug, i have when loading custom maps, idk why it does this???? Its on my page

[gageylawson]

I think knife combat could open up some options for altered attacks. If there was a stabby attack that brought an enemy close to you and exposed their arm, you could crush it with your elbow. Most of the attacks in the game are punch, kick, and occasionally a knee attack. The only 2 attacks that really stand out to me are the jump kick and the stranglehold; I think elbows and judo hold could help disarm a knife wielding opponent with more realism.

[sergrojGrayFace]

I think blocking should work like with unarmed combat. Probably some knife attacks shouldn't be blockable. Like, if you have a knife and stand too close, then enemy can catch your arm and block the attack, but at a distance the enemy can step back to avoid being hit. The choice for defender is to step back or step forward and catch the arm.

[GoldenHeartNecklace]

It's possible to create full campaigns? i.e. 8-9 hours of gameplay? Will be through an external mod or a "Campaign Creator" option in-game? This is the only thing that's making me doubt about preordering or not.

[RallTheManiac]

is it for the ps3

[IAMSHUGO]

@RallTheManiac Computer only.

[RallTheManiac]

@IAMSHUGO then ill buy for pc

[TheLazerTiger]

Wait...Robert DIDN'T die?

[roughplague]

1:00 hooded bunny looks like a left 4 dead hunter, harhar

gonna download this right away though! I like how the game is shaping up

[freezoid123]

Are u planing to add weapon throw option?

[ironmaidenrlz1]

@freezoid123 I think he said that was one of the things they were gunna add

[stunthumb]

Love the knife slashes, very visceral. The whole game shines though, the most professional game I've seen from a small team.

Keep up the great work guys, looking forward to this game.

[Pepihoh]

@stunthumb The most professional looking game from a small team!? This game can easily outclass most of the "bigger" games out there with its ingenuity, combat system and physics engine(like that's something hard to do in today's market where the most successful game is COD)

[RadGH]

1:55, looks like the hooded rabbit dropped his own knife, lol

[Skiedragon]

WOAH, KNIVES LOOK BRUTÅL

[totushek2194]

so I recently got alpha 164 and I don't know how to place the Raider Characters

[CollinxThexHuman]

oh man all this furry is ridiculous

I can almost smell all the animal-men having sex

I mean look at 0:01

you can see two whole anthropomorphic rabbit-men

that's almost double-furry

[FrankasaurousREX]

@CollinxThexHuman That's like calling sonic a furry...

[CollinxThexHuman]

@FrankasaurousREX

<The-Joke--< ---

Your head

[TheRealJethuty]

Seriously, TRY AND GET THE REDWALL LICENSE, that shit would be so fucking cash

[MichelangeloAlpha]

i think it would be pretty cool if after bleeding, if the player character or other NPCs stand still for some seconds, they would go into a hurt position. Maybe putting them holding a free arm against their stomach.

[Alexlink1]

omg!!! this shit is better than more of triple A apps! the state of art for collision, animation and hit feedback! i love it

[Rocker742]

fencing shields, rapiers, spears

gib o i repot u

[chauKlet]

@Rocker742

pls dnt repot o i repot u

[kuape1]

torch then the rabbit kan burn :D

[xilefian]

0:49 - We make the emo bunny. Even has the dark hoodie and life-less expression

[dMITIC]

TROWING KNIVES PLEASE that would be awesome

[V3n9eanc3]

how did you learn this? It's simply amazing. Did you teach yourself or do you go to a school that teaches development?

[SandroHalpo2]

God Damn, the entire fight from 1:15 to 2:00 was pure AWESOME. We get to have fights like that, yet the things you mentioned such as blocking, disarming, throws, and stabs are not even there yet. The knife combat system shown here is only HALF DONE. You guys are incredible. =D

[RedofYellow]

for mac?

[Regginyaga]

You guys are the perfect developers

if ever game was developed with your policies the world would be a much better place

[TheLachlanD]

it would be cool to use knives in stealth attacks

[majicm9]

This looks like a cool game and all, but what makes it worth paying 30 bucks for?

[MDxm3000]

@majicm9 if the campaigns and challenge levels do not suffice, how about it being super easy to modify a lot. Already a ton of maps, mods and other things on their forum! :)

[valmanzar16]

would it ever come to console? my computer cant run this for shit, its basically a toaster. i know things like creating your on things and modding would be a no-no, but what about an essential version of this game?

[Shrubberee]

Yeah. He had a cut on his ear. Badass.

[GrzegorzStyczen]

also some sort of animation/reaction when you kill all the enemies near you would be nice... now you just kill him and stand awkwardly.

[Nyberg93]

Im thinking about preordering. Is it worth it? Do they update regularly?

[Awynth]

@Nyberg93 Updates every week. (Sunday)

[bulletzz448]

do you have to make ur own maps

[joaop513]

gostei muito do seu jogo pena que nao tneho dinheiro

[thegreatfield1313]

Are these lugaru maps available for us?

[123gabriel2]

MarquesZero!

[Wrathchild231123]

Oh god, Lugaru flashbacks.

[SolidMPH]

Needs more...ninja moves

[rickdbzfan]

create a food for the classes

[MasacruRo]

amaazinnggg

[dylasauruswrecks]

add throw knife! sneak criticals! assassinations! loving these updates

[drillport]

epic ending battle

[justaboutbeatz]

i wanna be able to use 2 knives!!!!

[Powalony1236]

@justaboutbeatz double weapons fight... AWESOME

[Frankagator]

This game already has a much higher level of realism then the new assassins creed game? Why cant all triple A titles create such in depth games as wolfire?

[omega73115]

Ew, reddit.

Ow well, still love your game.

[ZeHepina]

Great update. Can't wait to be able to throw all kinds of sharp things at evil bunnies.

[Beavnorg]

Feature request, make it possible to cut off the enemy's rabbit ear. LOL

[0coldfinger0]

*gets slashed by knife 20 times*

"Oh hey, whats up?"

[NOPEDotJayPeg]

Man, I can't wait for the hammer animations. I want to see those bunny heads pop like ripe plums!

[Korban3]

@NOPEDotJayPeg If you have preordered, you can access the Modding subforum of the SPF. I modded in some functionality for the war hammer and posted in in there under "Project Showoff". One of the recent OGWeekly episodes had some footage of it being used. No blood effects, bruising or anything, but it's still massive fun.

[xXstealthtongXx]

you guys at wolfire are seriously putting the updates on overdrive

[KrykoStorm]

Aw shit, this would be sooo awesome as an open world RPG.

[Hypogripho]

Hello. I usually try to understand the video with the experimental language subtitle support but I think that it will be more easy for all the people that don't have english as first language to have the text of what he say in plain. Would be that possibly? Some kind people could do that please?? Thank you a lot!

[EpicActionAnimations]

yay the new changes video came out!

[cheeseit126]

wooooooooh

[rekindledphoenix]

0:30 WIN

[FredeGF]

what item should you select in the editor to get this knife (that has the weapons mechanics working) in a164?

[Chaozreepr]

I thought for a sec at :31 that the knife he was holding got stabbed into himself. That would be pretty cool if the game actually checked for self-injury with weapons

[2Birrds1Stone]

I'm sorry, but i'm not paying $30 on an alpha game with not that much content (atm) when my computer is the equivalent of a toaster. If it was $10 or so than I would re consider just for the sake of having it until I get a new pc.

[hilleltaco]

@2Birrds1Stone but it is a pre-order meaning when it comes out you get the actual game

[HumbleBabyBear]

I got $25 for Christmas. Should I buy this game with it, even though I have a not-so powerful computer?

[xsporian]

the hooded bunnies look akward and kind of stupid

[Terdmissle9]

There's SO much potential with this engine.. I hope, whatever game you make, that it's an action-rpg one, i'd pay out the ass for it.

[KiyoshiDaichi]

Awesome as always. Just had an idea: When this is released please make an action rpg game with this fighting and weapons mechanic please ! Damn that would be supa awesome.

[ivyssauro123]

awesome addon the knife combat!!

you wolfire huys arre awesome!

genius just genius

[iR00k]

Yay! Autoupdator too! :D

[MrCraft07]

what does he use? for his game?

[Knexxuss]

@MrCraft07 Im guessing C or C++ plus some scripting language. For rendering they use OpenGL, and that I know for sure.

[DarmanRC]

0:29 epic :D

[PaddedWhiteRoom]

this game is turning out really, really awesomely.

[Dluzar]

We want bows and spear throwing/shurikens.. I know, that would be a killer, but still. Make it hard to actually hit something with a range weapon, so it gets balanced.

[sgt0pimienta]

bleeding should do damage, that would be really cool, i know people don't want this to be either an RPG ir a simulator, but its still a fighting game, seeing pain and bleeding would be awesome

[3d834]

an you make a ranged weapon other than knife throwing?

Like a short-bow or something?

[delpher32exe]

@3d834 no, that would ruin game's mechanics

[Pinksleee]

>reddit

PRE-ORDER CANCELLED

[tkassner840]

@Pinksleee Why exactly?

[Pinksleee]

@tkassner840 It was a joke.

[TheLegendaryHobo]

killer bunnies? seems like a legit game...

[AwayToSlay]

cant wait for official release :D

[bheinks]

they have a subreddit. so fucking what? go back to /v/, basement dwellers

[xander5670]

@bheinks Noob!

[gantzerek]

the bunny in a dark hood at 1:00 is like "Look at all the fucks i give"

game mechanics are already just simply mindblowing!

[SomeKindaSpy]

Turner's hand should be bloody after extensive use of this kind of combat
