Select The Skills That Fit Your Playstyle!


On the loadout selection screen you can mix and match different rayguns and skills to discover the playstyle that fits you best! I wanted to provide and interface that feels simple to use for new players, but also has a lot of depth for the players who really want to get into character build optimization. Hopefully I achieved that!

On the surface its as easy as picking four skills that sound fun. Each skill adds to the player's four attributes (Agility, Cunning, etc.). Attributes add extra power to skills with stats associated with those attributes. For example, the more Cunning the player has, the longer the duration of Kinetic Barrier will be. This allows for some interesting optimization and rewards players for creating builds that focus on using skills that share a similar playstyle.

Thank you for all the support, and stay tuned for more progress and announcements!
