Currently Published as "Wrath of the Psionic Lords - All The Queen's Brood: Beta" and "WotPL - All the Queen's Brood: Beta" in the US Region.
"All the Queen's Brood" is my first release of what I hope to make into a fully featured gametype. At the moment "Wrath of the Psionic Lords" or "WotPL" is a completely PvE experience in which you together with up to 4 other players can level up and upgrade one of the three unique heroes. All while fending off scaled, randomized waves, and protecting your base as you advance towards killing the enemy boss.
At the moment it is very much still in a BETA state. While I have tested it time and time again I cannot say for 100% there are no bugs. But the very base game is there and is in my opinion is fun to play. And while I work on more features I would like to get some feedback. So feel free to tell me your opinions or suggestions here or if you're feeling brave tell the game your negative opinions.
(Photos and Video should be up later this week.)
Current features:
- Up to 5 Players.
- Three Meticulously Balanced Upgradable Heroes: No one hero is more powerful then the others, some may be better in certain fields but never capable of "more".
- Random, Scaled Waves: Every enemy spawn, and enemy skill is on random timers providing unique experiences every game.
- A Deadly Boss: Modeled after the queen boss from the SC2 WoL campaign.
- Control The Chaos: Tired of getting floored every time a Ultralisk spawns? Easy enough, kill the Ultralisk Cavern. Can't handle the number of enemies in wave? Take out a Nydus Worm.
- Break The Code: The Codebreaker mini-game is there for players to enjoy and figure out a shared puzzle.
- Hidden Cheats: Like insane spawn mode, control the queen to use against your friends, or just have some fun with super party fun mode.
Future Plans
In order of importance to the whole.
- New Character Select:
No offense meant here to SweetZombieJesus's work on his Circle Hero Select, love the work but I need a few things to be different to meet my exact needs.
- More Heroes:
Two more are planned for the Dark Protoss race.
- Achievements:
Kill the queen while in insane spawn mode? You definitely deserve recognition.
- Possible Item System:
I'm not going to make any promises here. And to be honest was never originally planned, but I see where it could be used and how it could be fun. So given the time and a working bank system it may see the light of day.
- Second Map:
Featuring "Light" Protoss vs Terran AI
Change Log
1/24/11 - 1.0 - 1.6: Various bug fixes.
1/26/11 - 1.7: Bug fixes, new codebreaker mini-game.
Known Issues
Next Player Button - Respawning after using the "Next Player" respawn camera button will sometimes break the camera. I may just disable the button if the fix I have coming with the next patch doesn't work. - Thanks to Ezefeld for finding and reporting this one.
Single Player - Selecting a hero before the hero selection time is up will spawn you with a temporarily unlocked camera. It will fix itself when the hero selection timer expires.
