Introducing the 2.5 Update, a massive overhaul that rebuilds and refines nearly every part of the project. The previous version had rough, unfinished areas, from code and blueprints to the map and sounds, so this update focuses on polishing everything and bringing the quality up to the level it deserves.
All core systems have been rewritten from the ground up. The event graph in the first-person character has been completely reworked with cleaner, more stable code that improves animations, performance, and overall gameplay feel. The movement system now feels smoother, more responsive, and much more realistic.
A ton of bugs have been fixed, including issues with input spamming and crouch behavior. On top of that, I’ve added fully realistic footstep sounds for both walking and running, adding a new layer of immersion.
The biggest change in this update is the entirely reworked VHS effect. All post-process materials have been tweaked, resulting in a vastly improved and more realistic visual, it’s genuinely a huge leap forward. The difference compared to previous versions is massive, massive? Looooooooow....
The demo map has also been redone from scratch. The old version was half-finished and unpolished, so I rebuilt it while keeping the same overall aesthetic and tone. It now looks and feels much more complete.
Lastly, I’ve added new blueprints such as interactable lights and other small gameplay mechanics to make your experience even more dynamic.
