Initial gameplay coming together

Have been making steady progress on the core gameplay elements of hardpointe. I do feel like the end result is even a little bit.. fun? (Shocking to me most of all)

Here’s a longer-play gif of the game in action, with slightly less-embarrassing colors.

Current feature list:

• All six initial powers:
• Shield
• Heavy Axe
• Booster/Charge Attack (was originally jet pack?)
• Cloak
• Phasewalk (not sure if this one will make the cut)
• Hack (turn enemies into allies)
• One-off weapons (take up power slots but limited/non-rechargeable ammo)
• Various combat effects:
• Stun
• Knockback (concussive)
• EMP blast (in progress)
• Enemy behaviors:
• Basic melee
• Keeps distance (ranged attack)
• Explodes on death
• Attacks in packs
• Uses / recharges shield (in progress)
• Terrain:
• Chasms (if knocked into one you or enemies drop to the next level)
• Combat mechanics:
• Wall-smash
• Corpse-tossing (heave enemy remains into other enemies)
• Items:
• Grenades (simple damage & effects)
• Nanotech Cores (effects like acid and health – so far)
