Cat survival

Thoughts of new gameplay mechanics.
After a week of brainstorm we decided to make this changes in game-play.



  • 1. New "Cat Authority" parameter. It will gives Damage and Health multiplier.
    Every cat has it's own territory. The more territory you have more energy you waste to protect it. So, if you have zero territories you are disrespected cat and have 0,75 multiplier. 1 territories=1multiplier. 2=0,75 again. 3=0,5. 4=0,25. and etc..
  • 2. Fertility changes. Now fertility points give common, uncommon, rare and unique bonuses AND you can beat 5 common cats and get unique bonus, it is not fair. To get unique bonus in next patch you will have to get 0,25 "Cat Authority" which is hard enough.
  • 3. "Play as kitten" changes. Now to play as kitten you should die as a cat. It is bad discussion because to get bonuses you should die for no reason. In next patch you will play as kitten immediately after reproduction, and get all bonuses. But what will happen with items when you leave cat's body and start a new life as kitten? Well, we decided to make two type of parameter modifiers: for cat fighting and for pest fighting. So, after rebirth as kitten you will keep all of "pest fight" modifiers, but lose all of "cat fight" modifiers and will have to gain your respect in cat society again. Relationships and game mechanics with relative cats is still in development.

Hotfix!
Coins UI works fine now. Strong enemies give more coins. Leap meter UI was changed.

Now you can use buses to travel between cities. Spawn underground bug was fixed.

  • -New 16 square killometeres world.
  • -Optimisation improvements(our PCs show 70fps, before were only 30)

Patch discription
Well, lots of game mechanics don't obvious at this moment. Especialy reproduction) Now reproduction is very complicated, but this mechanic will be improved. Now you have to press "M" and check your place in cats rating. You start as almost omega cat(pre last). To reproduct you have to be an alpha cat(first place in rating); to get there you have to level up your cat, eating garbage with enough loyality points(without it you have a chance to get diarea) and leaving urina marks. Also there is a very small minimap that shoul be fixed too, beacuse it is not clear that cats and kittens marked on it. Cats are "letters" and kittys are "numbers".

This patch changes a lot

  • -Cats are no more spawnable mobs. Every cat is now unic.
  • -Cats have more complicated behaviour now: they eat, hunt, fight. loot.
  • -Rivalry system was complitely reworked. Cat rating was added, kittys will reproduct with you only if you are ALPHA cat and on the top of list.
  • -Your kittens will become unic cats too.
  • -Pests are more dangerous now, they can wound or poison you. But also you can make a stealth kill and stay unharmed.
  • -Advanced graphical settings and volume adjusment were added.
  • -Next large patch will add unic traits, bonuses and ability to reproduct for other cats.
