What's being worked on now...

I thought I'd keep you updated on what work is being done. If I've been implementing one of the communities suggestions I'll mention that in the post. Unless you don't want to be mentioned.

Thanks,

17th March : I've started implementing the new button/keyboard menu prompts, and movelists.
Basically the game defaults to keyboard, however if you press a button on the controller, all prompts will switch to controller prompts. This will work for player 2 also!

Thanks to Tensenuma for this suggestion.

19th March : Started work on the controller code there's some issues with minor lag, plus I think the specials are too hard to do on a controller so I'll be fixing these. I'll also be fixing odd bugs such as with the electrocution, and sometimes you can't jump after doing a special.

Uploaded 2nd update! Controller update!

20th March : I'm still waiting on some new voice samples for the 2hit combos, basically I'm going to mix it up with 'Nice!', 'Ok! and 'Alright!', so there's more variation and less repetition.

Started work on the training mode today, I've got something pretty fun planned!

P.S this is going to take me sometime, so there won't be an update for a few days. I have to draw two new backgrounds, get the new training song, and draw the trainer sprites.

Thankfully the input display stuff is all done, it goes under the hud and shows what buttons you've pressed. I coded that at the start of the project!

20th March update

I moved the rounds won symbol near the clock as user request @Daniel. Training mode is all setup and working now, I just need to draw some new Bg's and the sprites, I've designed the training mode to be fun, so it's kinda a new match with song and sprites and backgrounds. They'll be one for cops and one for criminals.

Just finishing up the new character for the training round, Truong-son is working on a new epic song for the this as well. I also got some new sound samples from Elaine, which I've put in the game, they're for the 2hit combo stuff,

^ Is that what was added just now?

[Bluestargeneral]

Just uploaded training mode. I was just checking it over before doing an announcement!

[Ｔｅｎｓｅｎｕｍａ]

Alright, good to hear (:
I'm glad to see development is coming along nicely and with a month of so of early access it seems you could have it done in way less
But I'm also curious how Story Mode will come out
Best of luck to you;

[Bluestargeneral]

Well I'll be adding a tonne of content to Story mode, proper cutscenes and stuff, plus certain rounds have to be won under conditions. Like you have to get an arrest, or wasted. Beat your opponent in under 30seconds, should be fun!

All sounds great (:

Just out of curiosity because it sounds cool, what do you use to paint the sprites?
I've never gotten into painting irl but the only thing that tempts me is the Tilt Brush..

Also take your time these updates have been pretty consistent, so it's looking great so far.

I use an old version of psp from 2001. Before they became rubbish, really hate the new versions after they got bought out.

That's something I would have never expected
But it's pretty cool.
Do you use CFW? I remember those days.
