Hello Martyrs, it's been four months since my last confession, and those months have been tough. Here are a few things we're excited to start playtesting and getting your feedback on:


NOTE: You'll need to delete your save file if you've played a previous build.

🎮 Major New Features

✨ Blessing Points System

A complete new system that rewards your faith and devotion:

- Using the crucifix and interacting with holy objects now requires Blessing points

- Craft the Rosary items to store extra Blessings

- Discover holy praying statues throughout the world to replenish your Blessings

🔦 Advanced Flashlight System

- Redesigned flashlight

- Added realistic random flickering effects

- Enhanced light decal system with improved visuals

- Save points placed throughout levels

- Improved respawn system for new nuns using docking bays

🎵 Improved audio (still a WIP)

🎯 Gameplay

- Stealth system: we've added a sound propagation system - enemies react to your noise, sound can be blocked by walls, and noise traps create strategic opportunities

- Dodging: testing new dodge mechanics

- Relics: Relics now provide passive bonuses

- Noise traps: New environmental hazard

- Interactables: You can now smash interactables for resources

Enemies

- Improved enemy behavior trees and AI

Hope you try it and enjoy sacrificing yourself for the greater good!
