Imprisoned Hyperion - first-person RPG inspired by Arx Fatalis

[Hvor]

What did you change?

I'll copy the text of Monday's patch.

Added an additional impact from hitting the NPS, now the weapon briefly slows down after the damage is done.
Reworked controls, which fixed a few rare bugs.
Now for a hard hit it is necessary to press the left button of the mouse, and the pressed button produces a series of strikes.
Weakened projectiles of NPC mages, and all magical projectiles of the player strengthened.
Damage dealt by enemies decreased
Reduced chance for NPCs to block a hit
Fixed a bug where NPCs dealt damage without attacking with weapons.
Removed the mechanics when NPCs of the same faction began to fight with each other
Sounds of combat NPC now disappear at a distance
Recalibrated the animation of the attack from NPC and the player
Also fixed some incorrect NPC names


Also reduced HUD, removed the quick access panel.
Added a bar showing the health of the enemy and his name.

How is magic in this game?

You need to equip the book of magic as a weapon in the inventory slot.
There are 3 types of attack as weapons.
1 - shot
2 - hold (usually something like a flamethrower)
3 - buff (but not always) if you press the block button.

The game has 5 books of magic, each with its own 3 effects.

If you take the book of earth magic as an example, it has 3 spells
1 - shoots a stone which can be used as a step or to block the way of the enemy.
2 - Creates an area where enemies are slowed and can be set on fire
3 - Creates a cloud of poisonous gas

Unimpressed. I think even copying and pasting outdated and clunky Arx Fatalis' melee combat system over this will be an improvement. Just my opinion. But keep doing your thing, nigger. Even attempting to make an immersive sim these days takes balls.

Added a craft to the game. Also released patch 1.2.0 today.
I hope the game is better with it.

I have started development of the second part.
You can download the demo and share your impressions.

Imprisoned Hyperion 2 demo here!

There seems to be something wonky with the lighting. I mean, you are walking around with a lightsaber that burns my eyes, yet it only illuminates the PC? The same thing with the molten metal in the forge.

This is "Emissive color" you think it's too high?

Hvor you should totally make this into an Avowed killer and watch Obsidian seethe.

Seriously, I've been waiting for this game since it was first announced two years ago. There aren't many games like this and I'm very interested in how obsidian will do. I hope it will be something really made with heart and not another plug for game pass

Updated the demo for the next part of the game.
It would be interesting to hear the opinions of players who played the demo of the first part. i think i've grown a lot this year.

Is the guy rowing the boat in the trailer using a sweeping animation?

Gotta respect this guy's determination
Still haven't played the first...

This game seems very interesting. What spells are present in game?

I played the first.

It was impressive that one dude made it, but at the same time it seemed like he just burned out on developing and released it as is - which was absolutely not even close to feeling like a finished product.

Instead of fixing the game he seems to have gone straight to a sequel which, judging from the trailer alone, is going to wind up the same as the first.

Hvor I admire what talent and determination you have to come this far - it's more than I can say I have - but at the same time it seems like you just give up at some point and release an unfinished game. Check out RatTower's game Monomyth. It's very similar to your game but he has spent like five+ (probably way more) years developing it. I feel like you need to be more patient or something, IDK. Like even the trailer is janky, bro.

Yes XD

There are books in the game that are used as weapons. When you pick up a book, you can shoot a fireball, for example. Mostly attack spells, but there is an interesting spell that greatly reduces gravity for the player (you can call it flight).

The second part in my opinion turned out much better than the first on release, I took into account many mistakes. All the testers who played the first part and the second part said that the second part is much better.

It's very hard to read combat

At first everyone has problems with it, but people eventually realize when to put a block and enjoy learning how to do it.)

The second part is ready. I will be glad if someone who has played it will write here their impressions.
