Experimental game

• Fix: Movement is clunky and very linear. Add some sort of Lerping for acceleration vectors.

• Feature: Muzzle flashes for shots

• Feature: Bullets (raycast or projectile?)

• Feature: Add smooth camera movement to camera on crouch. Right now it's too fast and looks arcade af.

• Feature: Add jump effect to camera

• Feature: Add Stamina (with bar?)

• Feature: Subtle Headbob, FOV change on movement (Distinguish between sprinting and walking).

• Feature: Basic ESC UI, FPS counter, stamina bar

• Discussion: PvP vs PvE PVP. ARENA STYLE.

• Discussion: Realism vs arcade Arcade deisgn. Realism mechanics.

• Discussion: Gameplay loop

• Discussion: Is this a survival game? A Shooter? A Sandbox? All? End goal is all. But at first this should be a sandbox where you spawn with a gun.

Focus:

Making a game that you can leverage when you realize what's possible and what's not. Movement system, gun handling, shooting, modding, inventory, hitreg, etc...

Build a realistic fps sandbox with arcadey mechanics, and start to document it, get funding, invest in better animations, and add multiplayer.

MVP to start documenting progress:

• Shooting bullets.
• A manequinn that registers hits in every hitbox.
• A shooting range/place to be in and show process
• Some resemblance of UI (Escape menu, stamina bar, etc...)
• Stamina system

End goal landmarks

• Dynamic hitboxes (heart, brain, lungs)
• Health system with blodloss instead of a health number
• Dynamic lighting (Gunshots causing light to be spawned for a duration)
• Sound system
• Adrenaline system
