Opening Location, First Enemy Encounters & Game UI System
This build featured upgrades to the core gameplay framework of the game, including gunplay, character switching functionality, and the Wave Spawn System. Responsive on-screen UI elements, such as character profile photo indicators, were added to showcase who the player was in control of, along with the "Flameshot power" mechanic. This unique system is implemented to intentionally give the player a reason to swap between characters.
In the game, Flameshot has a limited amount of "Flamepower" that drains as he uses his abilities. Once depleted, it takes some time to recharge. However, defeating Robotron Sentries with Pinkspade significantly increases the recharge rate of his "Flamepower." The goal of this mechanic is to create an enjoyable flip-flop dynamic in the gameplay.
This build also introduces the opening location of the playable game area, including the initial waves.
