Splitting and Kicking
  • Splitting enemies! Split enemies vertically in half! Can be executed on the death of an opponent with certain special moves and weapons for characters, experiment to see if you can find them!

  • Kick enemies on the ground. Just get near enough to a downed opponent and press the Kick button.

  • New special uppercut move for Lone Wolf. Press forward twice and Punch to execute, can also be done while grabbing.

  • Fixed up the Custom AI routines so they run smoother, taunting should now work properly.

  • Edited effects so they are different colors per player for Lone Wolf.

  • Added Brok clone as the 4th player instead of a Lone Wolf clone.

  • Updated manual to include new Uppercut attack for Lone Wolf.


Well, after a lot of work and help from a good friend, I got all the death moves in and started fixing up the AI routines. You can now split enemies vertically in half if they are grounded. I also included a new uppercut that Lone Wolf can use so long as he does not have a weapon equipped, although it will work the same as if he had a knife which has a longer range, and a special grab uppercut animation is used when you are grabbing an enemy. You can also now kick enemies on the ground with Lone Wolf and Brok, so long as you are close enough to them while the enemy is downed.

Since I decided to get a new video card, I can now capture video in 1080P to show a lot more of the graphical detail Lone Wolf actually has in it at this stage, even though a lot will be cleaned up and tweaked in the near future. I'll be continuing the clean up and implementation of some new AI routines, and then work on stealing/bartering, finishing up the lighting, day/night, and weather, and polishing up the level to prepare the game for beta. Get the game today, pre-order or donate at http://www.lonewolfgame.com or at http://www.play-em.com, have fun with this version, and as usual, feedback is welcome and appreciated!

Quartering and Breaking
  • Quartering and Breaking enemies! Can be executed on the death of an opponent with certain special moves and weapons for characters, experiment to see if you can find them!

  • Fixed some minor bugs related to animations.

  • Edited Lone Wolf's special punch and kick animations, balanced some of the special attacks' ki.


You can cut up your enemies in quarters and break all their bones now! Use the special Punch move (rapidly press Punch) with certain weapons, and the Wolf's rapid downward slash to cut foes in 4. Use Lone Wolf's unarmed special Punch and special Kick moves can break all the bones in an enemy. One more death type animation to go, and then onto the Stealthy AI and stealing, finishing up the lighting, day/night, and weather, and polishing up the level. Have fun chopping up and breaking foes in the wasteland! Feedback is encouraged so we can keep making this game better and better! More to come soon!

Description
Release date: Playable Alpha Available Now with Pre-Order, Full Release possibly Late 2013
Lone Wolf: A Post Apocalyptic Beat-Em Up Role Playing Game. This action/adventure game lets a player use martial arts skills, weapons, and turn into a werewolf to fight their way through a world set in the aftermath of post nuclear devastation.

This game is considered to be a Beat-Em Up Role Playing Game, where you take control of a character and his special fighting abilities. Akin to the art of a comic book, it relies on 2D animation for the characters in a 3D environment to give it a new style to the games of today. It can be played as a single-player game or online with other players, in several modes of game play including a Story Mode and a multiplayer Fighting Mode. The game is currently playable on Windows, Mac, and Linux.

The focus of the game play combines the aspects of a beat-em up fighting action filled game with the character building and interaction of a role playing game. However, the character building is transparent, for the most part, allowing for players to play as they want and get better at what they do best. The world is non-linear and open for players to explore and discover its secrets and have encounters with the denizens of the world in the aftermath.

This game has a very retro-feel as it takes the player back to the days of the beat-em up arcade machines of the 1980's and 1990's, and shows how fun a platform styled action/adventure game was and can be today.

Current Features and Notes

Game is still in an early alpha phase so animations, art, and game mechanics are still works in progress.

All character art is hand drawn and the environments are all 3D modeled. The sprites and artwork is currently made for 1080P.
  • Main character "Lone Wolf" can transform into a werewolf to fight enemies

  • Comic book style cutscenes as part of a full storyline that the main character is engrossed in

  • Currently local multiplayer only, but networked multiplayer is planned, up to 4 players

  • Wrestler character "Brok" can be played in multiplayer or AI driven, more playable characters will be added in the future

  • Playable characters can be AI driven, if you play a multiplayer game and want to continue without your friend the playable character can be switched to AI on the fly. AI can be customized per character

  • Sneak kills can be made as the character is in some shadowed areas of the game

  • Characters have unique skills that increase in the way that you play, there is no level building, the character just improves their skills based on how often and how you use the skill.

  • Characters use weapons that they are skilled in, so there are weapons that can only be used by certain characters. Currently there are 28 playable weapons! 10 different guns, 3 different swords, 4 different knives, and a lead pipe that can be used by the main character Lone Wolf, and 3 guns and 4 heavy two handed melee weapons for Brok the wrestler, and finally 3 throwing weapons that can be used by both playable characters

  • 6 Unique death animations per character, each character has different special moves to trigger the death animations on foes.

  • NPC character interaction and dialogue, there are branching quests and event driven dialogues that the main character can progress through

  • Customizable difficulty, camera control, and player input



The following features are in planning but not yet implemented
  • Death moves that are unique to each character

  • Additional playable characters that can be added to the party or played in multiplayer

  • More weapons and items, such as grenades that can be upgraded or bartered with NPC characters

  • Extended levels within and outside of the wasteland

  • Vehicle combat

Great idea- the art leaves me wanting though unfortunatly. Keep at it!

@Marsel I know a couple of people that speak the language, so it may happen in the future. Also I have one person from Russia who has pre-ordered already so I can test some things out with them as well.
Marsel May 16, 2013 @ 7:48pm 
You can ask somebody for help. Me for example, I myself can not do it alone but I can not find team for this.

@Marsel, thanks for the compliment Marsel, hopefully I can get it ported to your native language some day!
Marsel May 16, 2013 @ 4:58pm 
I would write more, but I do not know much English. But this project forward.

@ Thanks Marsel!

Nice idea.

@mdwhiffen Thanks so much! I'm an old school gamer so I enjoy playing locally much more than online, I will have online multiplayer in the future as well, but local co-op is still my favorite!
mdwhiffen Apr 20, 2013 @ 6:54pm 
I wasn't sure until I saw that it has local co-op. That got an immediate "yes" from me. I wish more games on Steam offerened local co-op. My son and I love to play games together on the same machine.
