Dolmen - Kickstarter Updates

Dolmen has almost funded. Check out update 2 and update 3 for more information on the game.

Concerning Mechs, Pointy Objects, and Sharing

Day 4 and we are 80% funded, how amazing is that!! Without you, all DOLMEN wouldn’t be moving forward. Today we talk about the melee combat in DOLMEN:

.

LIGHT ATTACK

• Light attacks use your stamina slower than using a heavy attack;
• They are great dealing fast amounts of damage before moving away from your target and hitting them again;
• Whilst this may be a good tactic early game you will find yourself struggling if you do not master the use and cost of your attacks, running out of stamina because you have used it all on the burst of attacks will cost you if you need to suddenly dodge or fall back.

Concerning Gratitudes, Things that go boom and DevTalk

We are 94% funded and so close to that 100% mark we can almost taste the cake however this time it will be yummy cake and not a fall to my death, The whole team would like you to know that are all so happy happy that each of you have decided to back us and everyone sends a Massive - pun intended- Thank you!!

Last time we covered melee combat today we have a closer look at ranged combat and how it affects your time on Revion Prime Ranged combat

Ranged weapons will always have 2 attacks and we will look at how they differ today by looking at the Zoan Pistol and the Pitoplasma Pistol.

Zoan Pistol

• Uses a Cryogenic Reactor
• Using the Zoan Pistol allows to place an Ice debuff on enemies, slowing them. Synchronising your synergies will help you deal the greatest amount of damage possible.
• Special Perk - Cold Chamber uses less energy

The Zoan Pistol has two different attacks:

• Light Attack - This is a precision shot that will help you either pull enemies or to interact with environment of Revion Prime and trigger traps.
• Heavy Attack - This is a Scatter Shot, Uses more Energy but apply the Ice Debuff faster on a close target

Thanks Farflame!


More information.

Dolmen has almost funded. Was glad reading this but then i saw they only asked 15k.

Hmm, some of that combat info was already shown in the gameplay video with developers commentary.

I would like to hope they will improve it before release but… Im not sure. This time they will be funded and may hit some stretch goals. But really important goals seems to be too high. So I doubt that their strategy to ask for minimum money will pay off.
