Prometheus Wept Dev Log Jan 2022

Hi!

Here's the development log for January 2022. The focus this month has been on creating and adding the content for act 1. In particular, an optional objective, to discover the source of the outbreak in the Drag, and the second mission for act 1 has been added. All the groundwork is in place for act 1 mission 3, including an extra map which was created earlier this week.

Environment weapons have been re-introduced, including an energy cell, which can be wirelessly activated by the protagonist to damage nearby enemies, and the lethality system has been revised.

Before I go, some of you may be aware that Brian Fargo very kindly gave Prometheus Wept a mention on Twitter, so I wanted to return the gesture in a small way by mentioning Wasteland 3, which is currently heavily discounted on Steam. I finished Wasteland 3 late last year and had an absolute blast with it - it does everything really well, but in terms of the setting and characters (homicidal Ronald Regan AI anyone?), it makes other RPGs feel flat and dull in comparison. It's well worth a look if you haven't played it!

Talk soon,

  • A number of character models for the upcoming missions have been created
  • Firearms automatically reload after combat
  • Save games are now ordered by time and date

If you have any questions or feedback, please leave a comment and I'll get back to you!

Merry Christmas!

Hi-

I'd like to wish you a merry Christmas, or whatever you happen to celebrate. I'm starting to wind down for the holiday at this stage, though sitting around all day doesn't really suit me, so I'll likely end up chipping away at the writing in a leisurely way :)

Monthly development logs for Prometheus Wept will be posted from here on in – the first will be out in the next week or so. If you've wishlisted and are followed the game, you should get a notification when it's posted.

Enjoy the holiday!
