Only Lead Can Stop Them – Devlog #2 – The Astra Pistol

26 de set.

Saludos amigos y amigas.

Welcome to the first weapon devlog for Only Lead Can Stop Them!
Only Lead has quite a varied lineup of guns for players to choose from. From submachine guns
to flamethrowers and dynamite. But, I ask you, what would their arsenal be without a trusty
pistol? That little blicky that you know you can always rely on if you run out of ammo for the big
guns. That’s the Astra Pistol!

The Astra 400 was the standard issue sidearm in the Spanish army during the Spanish Civil
War, and so it is in Only Lead as well. A strong and reliable pistol, especially under mud and
sand conditions. Perfect for the dirty trenches you will inevitably traverse.

In Only Lead, the Astra Pistol fires at a medium rate and has a decently wide spread. Which
doesn’t seem great at a first glance. It is your starter weapon after all, maybe it is meant to be
replaced sooner rather than later? Well you see, the pistol has a secondary function...
It can headshot enemies if aimed for a short while before firing.

“Aiming for a headshot in an old-school boomer-shooter? That’s crazy!” I hear you say. Well
that’s just the Only Lead: Astra Pistol for you. By aiming the crosshair towards an enemy and
waiting just a second, you can see the crosshair getting smaller until it’s only a dot. That’s when
you want to pull the trigger! The headshot does massive damage and can take out most low
ranking/low health enemies in one single shot. Very ammo conserving and satisfying!

During playtesting, we felt like the pistol was often thrown aside and forgotten as soon as
players got their hands on bigger weaponry, like the SMG for example. So we wanted to give
that little extra something to keep the gun relevant in some situations.
The SMG uses the same ammo type as the pistol, but fires faster at the cost of a wider bullet
spread. This means you can kill enemies faster at close range. Just an upgrade right? Well
maybe if you’re the spray and pray type of fellow.

But for those moments when you want to pick off a lone guard at a distance, with as low ammo
cost as possible, then bring out your trusty little sidearm. *PLOP*! Goodnight fascist bastard.
Until next time, keep fighting the good fight amigos y amigas. And thanks for reading!

Until Next Time

Ciao!

Early Access, CRT shader, female protagonist

Dear Developer, Congratulations on your upcoming retro game. I'm wondering if the game would attract more feedback and would communicate information better if the game in the current state would be classified as, "Early Access", rather than, "Demo." Do you have an anticipated release date for version 1.0? Is there going to be an option to have a CRT shader? How about a female protagonist? Best of luck with everything!...

Wolfenstein 3D 2

I imagine this is what rise of the triad would have been if they went ahead and made it the sequel to wolfenstein 3D as it was going to be originally. Love it.

Only Lead Can Stop Them – Devlog #1 – Well, hello there!

Only Lead Can Stop Them – Devlog #1 – Well, hello there!

Hello all you fierce Militias!

Welcome to the first devlog of Only Lead Can Stop Them, developed by Warcry Interactive and published by Retrovibe.
My name is Dan Pettersson and I’m the creative director and technical artist.

Only Lead Can Stop Them & Warcry Interactive

OLCST or Only Lead, as we sometimes call our loooooong titled game, is developed by Warcry Interactive, a Swedish team of game developers situated on the countries west coast. The game depicts the horrors of The Spanish Civil War thru the lens of a retro first person shooter. OLCST is big on staying thru to the roots of the FPS genre and takes inspiration from the master pieces of the 1990s. Looking at the game you can see that the art style, the movement, the level design all the tons of fun makes you think you have stepped in to a time machine to experience the sweet memories of your childhood digital carnage.

OLCST & Retrovibe

This year Warcry Interactive found the partner we were looking for to make OLCST the game we dreamed of. Retrovibe is game publisher from Poland that shares our love for the FPS-genre as well as a retro art style. They early on could understand our vision and they bring a great deal of experience of the industry and how to make an impact in the marketplace.

Inspirations

Being a student of history and lover of games I’ve always dreamed of combining these two interest in to a passion project. OLCST has become that dream. Part of the inspiration for the game is different diaries of the Swedish volunteer soldiers that participated in the Spanish civil war with all the bravery and perseverance that they went thru as they descended into the madness of war.
Other inspirations are great games like Wolfenstein 3D, Doom, Heretic and Quake to name a few. Being inspired means to us to not only imitate what’s great about these games but also complement and add to this rich legacy by creating something special and unique that was missing among the classics.

Game concepts

OLCST is centered around a fast paced maneuvering to avoid enemy projectiles. It has lots of gun battles from a varied arsenal of weapons. The enemies are many and come in many forms and sizes. Some have guns, others claws and teeth and some uses supernatural powers to stop you from reaching your goals.

The game has a lot of exploration with hidden secrets and treasures to be found.

It has boss fights and lots of carnage.

Development stories

The game has been in development for about three years and we are looking for a release by late 2024. Many great people has contributed to taking this game far in the development. Currently we are working on some new exciting ideas that will take the game to the next level of fun.

Until Next Time

I hope you enjoyed this introduction. We hope to give you more exciting stories down the line of current and upcoming features.

I’ll see you in the next devlog

Demo feedback

First of all, FOV needs to be adjustable, default wasnt the worst Ive seen, but still to low for me. Mouse movement is bad, Im guessing there is mouse acceleration turned on that makes mouse aiming very uncomfortable. And I dont know who came up with the idea that mouse accel is good for shooters but that person needs to be heavily sedated. Movement in general is clunky, you start to move about half a second after you push the button and it feels floaty and weird. Players hitbox is too large, or at least i...

Demo Feedback

Hi, I see plenty of game demos that released recently. Some of these games are in my wishlist and are meant to stay in there, but there are a consequent number of games that were removed from my wishlist just because said demos gave me bad first impressions. I completely understand the short delay you guys would have to make a demo version of your game for Steam Next Fest or so, but you also have to understand how very important a first impression is. For example, even at max, the mouse sensitivity is not ...
