Genre: Casual, Indie, Simulation, Strategy, Early Access
Developer: Kew McParlane
Release Date: Fri, 22 Jan 2016
I have added a new weapon to Rivalry! The Scimitar is a long curved sword that is somewhere between a Katana or a Longsword in both length, damage and mass.

What differentiates it from other Rivalry weapons is its curved shape which allows for some interesting new tactics. Only one edge of the Scimitars blade is sharp and does more damage the higher its velocity.



While the scimitar isn’t currently released to the public I am aiming to release this weapon as well as a few others (Including fixing the spear which is currently too powerful) in an update within the next few weeks.

I am also aiming to fix a few more bugs that have been identified within the skin feature. These include skin lists failing to update and altering the skin list logic.

Remaining tasks are now

  • Continue to polish skin feature
  • Complete network game lobby UI (make pretty and complete all network game modes).
  • Complete network game restart UI (make pretty).
  • Research different arenas and backgrounds.
  • Sound effects and music
  • General bug fixing, tidy up and enhancement of look and feel..
