What? Another demo?

Yes. This one has caused so much pain and suffering. The arena was kind of rubbish, and I know the game eventually needs procedural level generation, so I built a dungeon generator. It has been such a hassle.

The actual generation has been done for a week now, but it's been a constant battle to get it to generate a new dungeon every time you enter it. Before it would take the randomised level at the time of packaging and make it the only dungeon level. Eventually that got fixed, but then it broke the items and wolves spawning. I got them back in, but the navigation was broken.

But, despite being told by someone who knows how to do stuff in Unreal that a bug in UE5 made what I was trying to do impossible, I figured out a way to do it. I have no idea how. It's a cludge, and as soon as this bug gets fixed in the engine, I'll be cleaning this shit up, but it works and thats what matters.

So, major features this time include the dungeon, updates to how the wolves catch you, and the basics of a character creator.

But for now, when you find issues with it, let me know. Either on Discord, at methodiar@gmail.com or in the comments here.

Fingers crossed, the next version should be the public demo. There's about 48 features, fixes and bugs and 47 animations required first. And before that, I want to get another episode finished up. So, play away and let me know what's fucked up with the game!
