Devlog 5 - Quicksand grenade!

Hello everyone! Welcome back to another update from Unitiyn't on our journey through the Multiplayer Game Development course at the University of Chile.

We are thrilled to announce several exciting updates. First and foremost, we have created a brand-new stage for you to battle on. 

Additionally, we have introduced a new ability: the quicksand grenade. Players can now throw this powerful bomb to slow down their opponents, adding a new layer of strategic depth to the gameplay. We implemented this ability to make the dash more useful.

Check out the video below to see these updates in action!

In addition to this, we have addressed several bugs that were affecting the stability and performance of the game. 

Another exciting update is the new dash animation. The dash move now features its own animation, making this action more visually appealing and satisfying to execute. This improvement enhances the overall aesthetic of the game and makes dashing even more fun.

Finally, we have implemented cooldowns for all abilities. This change is designed to balance the gameplay by preventing ability spamming and encouraging more thoughtful and strategic use of skills.

We also now have a new game icon and splash screen. 

The new designs, created by Ghelber.

This gives a fresh look and feel to the game from the moment you start it up.

Stay tuned for more updates!
