Question about combos #12

Closed thesourcehim closed 6 years ago

thesourcehim commented 6 years ago

I'm trying to get grenade combo achievement, but I haven't noticed any combo counter with any weapon like it was in metal blob solid. Does it exist in a game?

I've had added it into develop.

I had a feeling it might've been a bit of a tricky trophy to achieve. When I set this to 8 hits I was getting the trophy on the first couple of levels. When I set it to 15, I never got it. 12 seemed like a good number.

Basically, when using grenades you want to keep throwing them at enemies, attempting to keep them alive by hitting them constantly with them to juggle them. You'll see what I mean.

If you want to experiment, you could try running the game with the -debug parameter and then pressing 5 on the keyboard to change to grenades (1 through 5 will change weapons) when in debug mode.

Confirmed, counter works, got the trophy, thank you! Very satisfying to 100% this game. I enjoyed metal blob solid and this one is way way better! My only wish if work on Blob and Conquer would be continued even if it becomes non-free, I don't mind to pay for a good game. Great work!
