There has been a lot of critique regarding my most recent DA project, mostly about lack of options but also a lack of quality in what is already there. The expectations were fairly high and I certainly didnt them.

HOWEVER, despite me seemingly ignoring these issues for the longest time, Ive actually been thinking a lot about how I should address them and the solution I came with, was to simply go from scratch again

Acheron

Acheron is a new Death Alternative Mod, a Framework in fact that carries no content on its own.

First, I do believe that its important to properly chop down and focus on things one by one and in honest, I wasnt doing that before. I tried doing a lot of big things together in one project, and that just doesn't work. So, to make sure that this does not happen again, I will properly split focus and Acheron will exclusively work on the actual Death Alternative part.

Second, with Acheron being responsible for all the more complex aspects of Death Alternative modding, it will also include a list of improvements and fairly new features that were either missing or not of acceptable quality, such as:

  • There will be more customization, most notably an ability to disable the player or NPC from the mod
  • The defeat state will get a complete makeover, focusing more on a dynamic and detailed integration, rather than a linear waiting game
  • A new defeat condition, called 'Trauma' to make these tanks of you just a little bit less invulnerable
  • Stronger, more advanced interface functionality. Acheron is a framework and I wish to make integration into it as easy as possible, no matter what you wish to expand on
  • A variety of QoL features & fixes, such as custom console commands

The first Early Access release of Acheron is intended to be in about 4 weeks. Im aware that releases a currently a bit slow but there are A LOT of really fancy new things that I am working and these simply take time
Thanks to all the fellow patrons who still stick around :)

The trauma condition sounds interesting, and would like to learn more about it.

Trauma is following the thematic of "concussions induced by heavy blows", defeating you by taking an unblocked hit from some heavy weaponry, (mostly) independent of your current Hp :)
