Kanshi City is an indie game about helping people escape a controlling government in a city inspired by Tokyo. You must find people wanted by the government and help them escape before they are caught while avoiding security patrols. The game is in early development and is expected to be released in 2018/2019. Kanshi City is being developed by Midnight Pacific, an independent game developer from Glasgow, Scotland.
Kanshi City - Patrol Control Beacons
Post a comment
Description
Beacons are placed around the city, which control patrols. You must collect codes from particular citizens to shut the beacons off, shutting off a set of patrols.
you know, you could add certain dificulty by making those "citizens" standup on specific hard reaching places like balcones and reachable roof tops dresed as security officers (To be Lorewise lets just say they are monitoring the patrols from an advantage point) Or even more dificult, they are following the patrol patchs, either all alone or with an smaller patrol (Of course all of this is only posible if you have added metal gear like stealth style on this game, were you could still interact with security without setting an gameover situation).
Hey thanks very much for your suggestion! So for the story the patrols are actually going to be robots, and the citizens you need to catch will be the engineers who designed and created them. The robots were corrupted and are locking the city down, kind of like the movie i-Robot. Most citizens will just walk around, but you need to track down the engineers who are in hiding because of the mistake they have made.
But yeah I will certainly try getting them to move vertically as you said, maybe put some ladders or fire escapes that let you get up to some buildings. That would add some difficulty which would be good :)
