Twitch recap, Friday build & Subtitle language crowd-sourcing.

Gooood morning, early birds!

What a week and a half this has been!

Thanks to you; our wonderful community; we’ve received an astonishing amount of helpful feedback, detailed bug reports, creative suggestions and highly appreciated support. Taking everyone’s reviews into account, we’re working hard on polishing the game. One step closer to the big release! (Exciting!)

Thank you all for helping us out so far. Keep up the amazing work, guys!

Twitch Brainstorm Follow-up

Last Tuesday, we held our first community brainstorm on Twitch. The first of many, for sure! Luckily, everything ran smoothly. Nobody held back on ideas and suggestions concerning a boss fight in the sewers.

Missed the stream? Don’t worry! You can re-watch it right here: http://www.twitch.tv/woolfegame/b/620035048

Out of all the things we’ve discussed, there were a couple of things we found very interesting and which we’re trying to put into action.

• A giant rat as ‘mini’-boss.
  Including some hordes of smaller rats. (The big mother and her babies)
  When defeated, she breaks the gate through which you can continue your pursuit of the Piper.
• Poisonous gas.
  The green gas coming from the two vents on either side of the open sewer pipe is currently not poisonous but making it poisonous could provide an extra level of difficulty for Red whilst fighting the rat hordes.
• Etc...

Next Tuesday’s Twitch

Thanks to success of last Tuesday’s stream, we’ve decided to make this a weekly thing. So next tuesday we’ll be back on Twitch with some more live updates -including our progress on the sewer level boss rat- and another brainstorm session.
This time the theme will be: ‘Combat upgrades’. Have a little think and if you’d like to share your ideas on how to improve the in-game combat, we’d be more than happy to hear them from you during our next Twitch stream. (Or, as always, in our community forums!)

FRIDAY BUILD V 2.0.5 - Change log:

It’s Friday again, that means another build! With every build we’re fixing as much bugs as possible, but we’re also trying to add some and fix some other stuff… Build will be available later today, so keep an eye on your Steam library for updates!

• Story mode: Red can no longer run, jump and fight in the narrative area’s of the game.
• Chase level: You know the level where you have to run away from the camera and the electro guards were chasing you? Or actually not really chasing you... ;) Should be fixed now!
• First subtitles: We’ve included a test for the subtitles in the new build. They are currently translated by Microsoft Online Translator System. You can imagine this gives a few very strange results.

WE NEED YOU (...for translations this time)

The English subtitles are now completed and should be fully implemented in-game! Whoo-hoo! But... that’s only the beginning. Our goal is to translate these subtitles in many different languages. And for that, we need your help.
Basically, we’re looking for volunteers who are willing and able to help us out with this.

The link below will take you to ‘Transifex’. There you can find all snippets of texts, categorized per language. The more help we get, the sooner these will all be filled and the sooner we can start the implementation.

Interested? Click right here: https://www.transifex.com/projects/p/woolfe

*Before we release all translations will be checked and corrected by a professional native editor for each language to ensure highest possible quality standards.
*Some texts have been auto-translated. You will find some funny and crazy translations here and there. Feel free to correct them ;)

That’s it for this week!

We’ll be back with another update on Tuesday.

Enjoy your weekend!

Cheers,

The Woolfe Pack
