Gore update, i hope it is now more clear to see without glowing bones.
Display of points at the correct impact point.
Playtest will be updated soon.

Still testing to find the best look. This is how it looks like normaly. Looks more natural and even better but harder to see if it is dark. Just need to find a performant way without emissive materials.

The reworked gore-system is now fully implemented into the game. More gore parts are displayed now and headshot damagestates are in place.

Damage states for headshots.
After reciving feedback for the weapons i try to do the headshot kills based on weapon damage (capped at two hits atm, second hit would always kill).

Gore, gore and more gore.
i did a test with displayed ribs again for comparison.
After adding i removed them on purpose but it feelt like something is missing. So here they are again.

After reciving some feedback from the current playtest i try a new approach to the gore system for the latest added level to make it more clear to see.
A bit to much atm and still WIP.

A sneak peak for a new level i hopefully finally can add to the playtest this weekend.
I tried to create a more fast paced, intense setup for this level, basicly a try to be a bit more arcade style.

Freedom to decide what you can do.

I love having the freedom to decide what I can do in games. So I've now added a jukebox where you can freely choose the songs you want to hear in a level.
