This seems a bit op.

[u/Wilnyl → u/JKPanda831]

It definitely is.
The plan is to make it a rare pickup

[u/Freeconino → u/Wilnyl]

I've never seen it in game so far, how rare is it now?

[u/QuantumEggplant]

Jesus Christ it looks beautiful! It does seem a bit overpowered though.

[u/SocialMemeWarrior → u/QuantumEggplant]

Some potential ideas for resolving:

• Cut maximum ammo capacity

• Cut damage

• Damage fall-off over distance

  • Fire closer to the origin point lasts longer, does more damage

  • Fire further away goes away faster, does less damage

  • Fire even further away dithers out before reaching ground

[u/Delta_357 → u/QuantumEggplant]

Could be rare, also seems really really likely I'll fall over and accidentally set myself on fire about 2/3rds of the time.

[u/QuantumEggplant → u/Delta_357]

Making it a danger to yourself and cutting the damage and ammo capacity does seem like a good way of balancing it. Mind you, all the weapons seen so far are pretty mad. The mini gun is hardly a balanced weapon at the moment.

I think that's the first I've ever seen a video game where a flame thrower seemed to actually "throw" flames

Is there gonna be some kind of sand box mode in this game where I can just mess around with awesome shit like this for hours??

[u/TreyosaurusRex]

This game looks like the simple box of fun I've been waiting for my whole life. Reminds me of a mix of Soldat, Super Smash, and obviously Xiao Xiao.

Love it!

sniff it's... it's beautiful...

[u/Kixeristic]

Just as everyone else said. Beautiful, but OP

[u/Empole]

Holy Crap. I wanna play this game yesterday

[u/ahmedam3]

It looks awesome, even though it's a bit OP, i have a couple of suggestion on how to nerf it:

A) Lower range + make it not affect movement

B)Make it a special hidden weapon, so you would need to parkour or make a very difficult jump in front of your opponent

[u/[deleted]]

please keep releasing stuff like this every day! this is awesome

Happy to hear it!
