A downloadable game for Windows

Code named PROJECT HELLSHIFT is in very early stages of development. 

PROJECT HELLSHIFT - A FPS PvE Roguelite Surivival

Setup your loadout before every run, find and eliminate enemies (Survive), gain XP and LevelUps to upgrade your equipment. Gather gold to permanently modify your loadout.

The game is still in very  early development and this is the first public playtest where you get to try it out, provide feedback on the game and suggest improvements/ideas!

Controls:
-WASD - Movement input
-Spacebar - Jump
-Hold Spacebar - Auto Jump (A bit broken and even more broken when combining with dash ability)
-Shift - Directional Dash (can dash 1 additional time in air)
-Mouse Left Click - Shoot, but also used for pressing buttons/items in the UI
-Quit Game - ESC

Info:

WEAPON VENDOR:

* Weapon Selection is available at the WEAPON VENDOR in the HUB level. 

* Interact with the vendor to choose the weapon you want to play with as well as modifying the weapon loadout with different weapon modifiers (changes and improves weapon attributes/stats). 

* Requires gold (currency) to unluck things in the shop but the mods (modifiers) are shared between weapons so you will always keep them unlocked for all weapons to use, the same is true for their upgrade levels.

AUGMENT VENDOR:

* Allows you to exchange gold/currency for Augments which in turn upgrades the characters stats when equipped.

TRAITS:

Only 2 traits are properly functional and it's to do with the AUGMENT VENDOR, WEAPON VENDOR has no traits setup yet. 
The Traits provide passive bonuses on-top of what you have already unlucked based on the trait family. Triggers automatically but requires the right AUGMENTS to be equipped.

Save Game:

* SaveGame file can be found in "%LOCALAPPDATA%\ProjectHellshift\Saved\SaveGames\"

  * "PHS_MainSaveSlot.sav" stores your in-game progression.

  * For a fresh & new save file, delete "PHS_MainSaveSlot.sav" from the folder but do note that all your progression will be lost/reset back to default.

  * A save file is automatically created when the game launches for the first time.

CURRENCY CHEAT:

If you simply can't take the grind anymore (for various reasons)

* There is a CURRENCY CHEAT vendor to the right of the AUGMENT VENDOR. Going in and out of that space will grant you 1000 gold each time.

Bugs:

* (WEAPON) Energy Rifle needs 1 additional firing click to be able to fire after a level up screen pause menu disappears.

* Shotgun shells and akimbo magnum bullets on repeated reloads disappear after a long session. Doesn't affect actual gameplay but may be distracting visually.

* Dumb AI Nav Movement, expect them to hit walls or get stuck. They will also stop following you if you hug walls (try to avoid the cheesing temptation if possible)
