One More Night development
The current live version of the game had some limitations to the gameplay features as well as some networking bugs that we couldn’t quite figure out. We decided to take all of the feedback and suggestions we’ve received with the original version of the game and start over. We have been working hard on this rebuild of the game and we’re getting close to being able to officially swap the current “Version 1” with the reworked “Version 2” of One More Night. The V2 build is currently on steam and fully playable under the private beta branch and should be avaliable as the main branch any day now. We post a new build at minimum every Friday and so far we have pushed over 200 updates to steam on this V2 build. If you’re interested in getting access to this to help us with balancing and testing please join our discord. If you already own the game there shoudl be no change on your account other than the new version of the game will launch and the current version you've been playing is gone. If you don’t own One More Night don’t worry. We will send you a beta key so you can have access to the game for the entirety of the early access beta phase.
Current state of One More Night.
Animations
90% done. We are working on smoothing out multiplayer and single player animations to have an overall feel of finished product. There are some hiccups and bugs atm along with some of the animations being worked on.
Sounds
75% done. We are working on adding in all the sounds and elements so we can give the player the feeling of excitement and thrill to the game.
Core
100% done. The core of the game is finished and structure is implemented.
Weapons
90% done. We still need to balance out all the weapons to make sure they are well used and nothing is over powering. There are still some minor hiccups and bugs with guns and we are still ironing it all out.
Towers
90% done. We have added some new towers along with a few news ones in mind for future updates. Along with some additional smoothing out we are also still working on the balancing so they don’t over power the enemies.
Power ups
95% done. Still need to tweak and balance the power ups and the drop rates so they come at the right moment you need them or just to give you that leap advantage at times.
Multiplayer
75% done. We have most of the multiplayer done and functional but there is a lot of potential bugs to creep up so we need a lot of testers to help get all these ironed out to find every little issue with latency and such that could arise on different types of pcs.
Discord
50% - The core of the discord is in place and such will update the info to display in discord. We still need to finish implementing the voice for multiplayer.
Gamepad Support
75% done. Currently in finishing stages of getting single player all finished and worked out.
Story mode
10% done atm. We are working on a story option that could explain the backgrounds of the characters.
Boss Battles
10% - We have implemented the very first boss into our game. It comes early but is currently being tested for its stat adjustments. We will add even more boss battles as you progress through the waves and the possibility of some simple cinematic feature when a boss enters battle.
In V2 we have added almost every suggested feature and mechanics that was requested on our community Trello page to include more guns, towers, defenses, characters, and even boss battles. With this redesigned code structure the project is much more stable and adding new features in the future should be much easier moving forward.
We are currently in the polish and enhancement phase meaning that the game is (should be) stable and completely playable. We’re focusing on updating the visual feel of the game world such as adding and replacing placeholder art and models, animations in some places are still not added or fully blended, and there is still a lot of balancing that we are working on to make sure the game is fair to play and provides a challenge while not being outright Impossible.
Future of One More Night
We still have multiple new features we plan to add including:
AI team mates
More new enemy types
Companion combat pets
A story/lore focused campaign
New maps with themed enemies unique to them.
Traps you can buy from the shop that have utility uses such as slows, stuns, or knock backs.
As always we are 100% community focused and take feedback and suggestions to heart. We will base future updates on our community Trello board to make sure that the features we add are what you, the community, want to see added to the game.
One More Night V2 update
As many of you who hang out on discord know, version two of the game is taking a little longer than expected. This is mainly due to all of the programming being done by one person. To solve this problem we brought two more programmers onto the team recently so you might see them around on discord. Malcolm and Jake. This should allow us to finish up the rework much quicker.
Right now we have a somewhat playable version and if you are interested in helping us test it join Discord and let one of us know and we can get you access to the private beta build. Not all systems are up yet but we’re getting close!
Good luck out there and if you have any suggestions or feedback please hop on Discord and let us know!
Reworking the game to allow for tons of new features
:OMNcigar:One More Version 2 :OMNcigar:
Greetings survivors,
After releasing One More Night we have had tons of amazing suggestions that we never thought about adding to the game out of the gates.
Our current Steam version does not support a lot of these such as boss fights, flying enemies, local offline co-op, traps, random weather, ext. The current version is developed in a way that will prevent us from adding in these new features that you guys really wanted. So, we have made the decision to completly rebuild the game!
We started the rebuild a month ago. After encountering a series of roadblocks it came to our attention to reprioritize all development to V2. By planning ahead this will allow for tons of new features and will make it easier to add in any additional features that are suggested!
Planned features
-Visit our Dev Roadmap to see, vote, and add items for what you want to see added into the game! We take this Trello seriously and really listen to you guys when planning our game. Whatever items have the most votes will be added into the game first. And any items on this list will be in the game.
A few planned features will be
- Complete redesign of all UI including a new multiplayer lobby and character select.
- Full voiceovers for all characters
- More buildings, towers, and traps
- Throwing weapons
- Random weather
- More characters
- Melee weapons
- In game chat

Burn, Baby! Burn!
Flame weapons
-Added the flamethrower weapon! It burns everything in a cone dealing massive AOE damage!
-Added 3 levels of the flame tower! What's better then a flamethrower? An automated rotating flamethrower with a 360 degree arc of fire destruction!

-Speed is now 2% per level down from 5%.

Complete rework of game mechanics!
Hello survivors!
This past month we have been in all your feedback and have been hard at work on a bunch of new game mechanics that will really spice up the experience. Below I will outline some of the major changes and reworks of the game.
New mechanic: Deadly fog
We have added in a new mechanic to make the rounds more time sensitive. After X seconds a thick toxic fog will roll into the map and start to deal damage over time. The damage increases as time passes. This adds in a sense of urgency every night so make sure to kill all the enemies before the fog arrives.
New mechanic: Set victory condition
The game now has a set victory condition of surviving 25 nights that you have to achieve rather than having infinite amounts of rounds until you die. Reaching that goal is still very challenging and will require a lot of strategy and teamwork. If you do manage to survive all 25 nights you'll have the option to end the game or continue to see how many more rounds you can survive.
XP and Skill tree moved to in game only
You no longer gain XP after every match and level up your account. You now gain XP by every enemy you kill and gain bonus XP after every round.
Your character levels up in game and your levels will allow you to purchase better weapons and towers once you unlock them.
Map areas and unlocking weapons, skills, and buildings
As you kill enemies you collect gold that is used to unlock map sections. That hasn't changed. However, there is now a reward for every section of the map you open. One sections unlocks weapons and another unlocks skills etc. :omnshoot:
New enemies
We have added a few new types of enemies to the game. I'm not going to give away any thing here but I think you'll have a blast when you see them :IzzyWink:
Overhaul of the shop UI and functionality
We have changed the shop and added tabs to represent what gets unlocked when you open the corresponding gate. This is still a work in progress and we plan to completely overhaul the UI once again before final release. The goal for now is to make sure everything functions properly.
Winter Game Fest
In two days we will be setting up our booth at wintergame fest! If you live in Southern California come on by! We will be handing out a bunch of goodies and possiably even character skins!
Good luck out there :OMNThumb:
