Weapons in Action!
Arc Rail - Is a deadly lightning gun that can snipe enemies from across the map. It also has a tesla style fire mode that arcs shots between enemies that are close to one another. Get creative!
Plexus - Fires large energy particles that link to each other. I has a few different fire modes, but all of them just.... destroy anything in it's path :)
A few new enemies have crawled into view. We're excited to share the new Sniper and Toxic Zombie types.
Sniper Zombie - has deadly aim that will hit you unless you take cover! Clever dodging and gun play will net you the win when fighting against this crafty enemy.

Toxic Zombie - A waste filled balloon waiting to be popped! Kill him near other enemies to inflict extra damage.
A cool level design feature allows you to pick his color to match your toxic waste.

Dev Update: Automap Item has been added! Never get lost again!
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4iv_BOaqzic
Something that every old school fps needs is an automap. As environment art has become more and more complex, the idea of the automap has become less feasible. With Prodeus, we're bringing it back.
The automap records everything you see, the environment, the items, the enemies and lets you explore the world from a different vantage point.
Low on health? See if there's a pickup you've left behind. Got turned around in a level? Pop open the automap and see if there's something you missed. It might even help reveal a secret or two.
Finding a GPS tracker will reveal the parts of the level you haven't seen yet with a less opaque style so you can still tell where you've been.
The best part is, the automap works with every level right out of the box, even custom community made levels, no extra steps required.
Check out our kickstarter and stay tuned for more dev updates!
