Improving game intelligence and physics
🕑 Added 2025-09-22 03:01:00 +0000 UTCWith each update to Nine Lives of Yoki, we are gradually improving every aspect of the game. When we first started development, some elements were created without advanced game systems in mind. To improve the game's combat mechanics to the level we want, we need to completely overhaul the mob AI in version 0.8.4. This will allow us to diversify their behavior and fix many bugs.
In addition to fixing a lot of bugs, all mob behavior will be improved: native (when mobs are not in the player's field of view), player pursuit, and combat.
Our game uses physics, which also requires many improvements. Currently, physics is not being used to its full potential, so we want to finish it and make it a full-fledged part of the game: friction, air resistance, mass, collisions. Improving the physics will fix the remaining bugs and optimize the game.
Thanks to these improvements, we will be able to add new content to the game without future fixes. In phase 1 of the game's development (before v.1.0.0), we want to solve all the issues with every aspect of the game: from level progression and interaction with the world to graphics and sounds.
