Hi everyone! 🎉
I've made a significant change to the main character—upgrading to a full-body MetaHuman!
I believe this greatly enhances the character's presence and overall immersion in the game.
Previously, the character was just the classic floating arms, which always felt a bit off to me (even if it wasn't super noticeable).
Now, with the new full-body model, I've also added:
Improved IK animations for a more dynamic feel.
A new move:
the Slide, complete with a touch of bullet time
This is just a quick update to share these changes.
I've also been working on the AI, adding some new animations, but I'll save the details for the next update.
Thanks for your support
...And remember to Wishlist Better Than Dead here on Steam!
