Target lock still works better for many cases as in the last clip of the video, but for cluster enemies free aim may be preferred for many ppl. Still getting used to free aim as I have used target lock for many years :P

Thanks for the feedback!

- Removed a lot of scannables for better gameplay flow
- Crouch is now in move input instead of dedicated button
- Enemy replacement in the Neera Archives
- Ledgegrab does not need holding a button anymore

And many other minor tweaks.

We made some changes according to demo feedback.

Updates:

- FREE AIM!+crosshair for better clarity
- Scanning is faster and better color coding ( still needs some visual and sfx tweaking)
- Target lock picks the closest one to the crosshair

Yes, I can definately see that. We only have one 3d-modeller and we try to repurpose models as much as possible or kit bash new ones. Sometimes I wish we could clone us couple times so we could make this game everything we want it to be :)

One can dream...

And thanks again, all the fb is welcome.

Thanks for Playing :) We have made some of adjustments to the obstacle course. For example there will be less crawlers in the beginning.

We are also implementing free aim and upgrades to target lock system in the next patch.

Spoilerโ—๏ธ

What happens right after demo end screen? Let's find out!

First you drop down to a new area called Underground Depths. Right after there is a save point and you face a new enemy. Project name for the enemy is "blopshooter" :)

Any guesses for the real name?

Moadra is Metroid but you're the Predator Every now and then we publish a round-up of game or demo recommendations, and all you regular readers dutifully fill thโ€ฆ

Scanner and target lock have been most commented/critiqued.
So we try to add some QoL improvements to them. We are testing free aim. It may work in general gameplay but not so well during bosses.

Once again, thx for support :)

Thanks to your friend too :)

We are trying to make scanning a bit better. Text speed, better color coding for already scanned objects etc. Some suggestions may be to too big to implement at this point.

Thanks! I'm a big fan of Starcraft (especially SC1) and Predator. The other two people in our team are big fans of Metroid series.

We hope Metroid fans find our game, Moadra is still in the dark visibility wise.

Hey #Metroid fans:

I HIGHLY recommend checking out the demo of Moadra on Steam. It's like a 2D Metroid Prime with bits of Starcraft and Predator mixed in, and it has blown me away!
