Damn thats one tough bunny at 0:49!
That is some beautiful combat, keep up the great work!
I'ts second challenge from Lugaru in start of the video :DDDDDDD
And it's looking like physics became better... Maybe because developers just adjusted NPC fight parameters?
yeah, i can still remember the frustration when a hit from the werewolf sent me hundreds of meters flying ;D
zombunnie! Epic Vid!
Such fantastic work. The combat has really shaped up into a very entertaining display of skill and finesse. Keep it up!
falcon KICK
does this have multiplayer?
seems like multiplayer will be really fun!!
Very cool. Just pre-ordered and didn't honestly expect it to run very well on my Mac, but it runs quite smooth. You had me at knife fighting.
Insane Gameplay. I gotta say the movements of those Rabbits look damn smooth. The slow motion effect at 0:31 was sweet too. Is there a dash move yet? Jumping forward with a slash or something similar? You can run pretty fast and jump large distances so it would be pretty awesome if there was a move like that :D
It might just be a sign of the times, but I'm more excited about this game than I was about Minecraft!
Is there gonna be pouncing like in lugaru? That would look ******* incredible in this engine with these assets.
awesome as always.
Epic! OwO Now if is about ninja bunnies, now imagine you can drop a knife like Lugaru, kill in silence by behind OR imagine if your bunny can use 2 knifes (and it will be the unique weapon can use 2 weapons in each hand but you will not able of jump high terrains), maybe the character will use special techniques or something like.
Congrats guys, I loved the vid and the cool fights with the assassins bunnies. o3o
Perhaps Wolfire will make knives more effective than larger weapons when attacking medium armored enemies, but a knife wielding character will have a difficult time blocking attacks from larger weapons.
