Echoes Within Playtest · published
Hello everyone,
We’ve released an update focused on improving gameplay balance, character visuals, and overall stability. Here’s what’s new in Version 0.0.2:
Character & Visual Updates
Ann’s shirt texture has been updated for improved visual quality.
Added physics simulation to Ann’s shirt and other clothing pieces for more natural movement.
Ann’s hair physics have been adjusted; her hair will now appear heavier and less dispersed.
Ann’s posture has been refined to appear more natural and balanced.
Gameplay & Combat Adjustments
Added aim assist support for controller users to improve targeting precision.
The crosshair now turns red when aiming directly at an enemy.
Weapon display now shows calibers instead of weapon names (e.g., “Colt 1911” is now shown as “.45 ACP”).
Ann’s health has been slightly reduced, armor increased, and damage taken raised somewhat to create a more challenging balance.
Bandit Leader’s health has been reduced, and the damage they take has been increased for a more balanced encounter.
Bug Fixes & Stability
Fixed an issue where enemies entering ragdoll state could push Ann backwards unexpectedly.
Various minor bugs and glitches have been resolved to improve game stability and performance.
Thank you for your continued support and feedback. Every update brings us one step closer to refining the world of Echoes Within.
