Dark Shadows - Army of Evil

Dark Shadows - Army of Evil

Category / Kategorie: Fantasy - First Person Slasher
Language / Sprache: English / Deutsch

>>>>> September 1362:
An army of evil, named "Dark Shadows", have been ravaging the country like a plague of locusts for over a year and are frightening the people with their scary get-up.
Most people still think they are monsters. But they are only in disguise.

While you were away these monsters stormed the castle. A woman named Katerina has been kidnapped.
It is not just any woman. You are in love with her. They've also taken all the gold. All the taxes. And weapons!

You are the only one who can help Katarina.
You must hurry and follow them before they do something to her.

>>>> September 1362:
Eine Armee des B�sen, die sich "Dark Shadows", die dunklen Schatten, nennt, zieht seit geraumer Zeit durchs Land
und ver�ngstigt das Volk mit ihren furchteinl�ssenden Gew�ndern. Sie haben sich als Monster verkleidet und
pl�ndern das Land. Alles was sich ihnen in den Weg stellt, wird beseitigt oder vertrieben.

W�hrend man selbst gerade nicht anwesend war, wurde die Burg gest�rmt und eine Frau namens Katharina entf�hrt.
Es ist nicht irgendeine Frau. Es ist die Frau, in die Ihr verliebt seit.

Da niemand mehr �brig ist, um ihr zu helfen, seit Ihr die letzte Chance Katharina zu befreien.
Ihr m�sst euch deshalb auf einen langen blutigen Marsch durchs Land machen.

This should not cause any drastic fps drops but would improve the overall experience and prevent boredom because you're always looking at something not as good looking as it could... Besides this (and as Spike already said), the sounds of the weapons are a demerit, I really would expect to have different sounds when I hit someone with a sword compared to a shaft... Success is walking from failure to failure with no loss of enthusiasm.

Look at games like farcry 2 or something like that. There is not really a big story. You have to kill the enemies with different weapons. Oh, and the animations in the game are not choppy. That is only the first video of it. Because the second hard disk was not fast enough for recording with fraps in hd. Only 20 fps was possible. But next time it should be better. New videos will coming soon. Thanks for comments.

It�s a dynamic weapon movement. I will demonstrate it in the upcoming videos. On the screenshots it is the most time in the center, but only to show the weapons. Currently we are working on some better skins for the weapons. We are also working on some small things in the levels. Should be finished next week. Next step is the last test on different computers to get the minimum system requirements.
