Hello Survivors, 🏝️💀

Here are some implementations that were made in our internal build based on your feedback:

  • New melee weapon attack animations

  • Added a new island near the ship

  • New hitbox system that better registers hits

  • Increased volume of weather effects inside buildings

  • Fixed a bug where the jump key drained energy in water

  • Added a corpse decomposition system after death

  • Increased headshot damage for spears and arrows

  • Enemies receive an impulse when killed by spears

  • The watch has become even smarter (a new metric has been added – pressure; diving too deep will cause damage to health)

  • Changed some aborigines' animations

  • Aborigines react differently to damage depending on the body part

Stay safe, stay resourceful,

Anton - Developer
