It's very good, I really liked the mechanics and the characters, the only thing I would have liked more would be that the bosses also had more mechanics in the fight.
If there’s one thing I’d like to see more improved out in Lycanthorn 3 (if a sequel happens), it’s a better balance between characters. After you get new characters, Rain started to feel like an afterthought in her own game, as the other characters became more useful to use then she did!
For some reason I can run the first one no problem but my linux is saying it can't find the gzdoom executable for the second game, even tho the folders are layed out exactly the same. I have no idea why
This is probably related to that when making the Linux ports I made some minor mistakes and was not able to correct them. This should be fixed on the Steam page for this game plus Shrines 1 and 2
Hey! Thank you for making this game, I really enjoyed it, so much that I listen to the soundtrack every now and then. It is that good! So anyways... Lycanthorn 3 confirmed?!?!
Um the right mouse button isn't working for the knives. in fact anything i map as the second fire button on my mouse or keyboard isn't registering as second fire and there's a couple map line errors that pop up if i load it through gzdoom and there a few texture errors that pop up when it's loading through its own executable. I have no idea if it's because i first downloaded it when it was brand new and i need a new version; though i seem to remember having these problems with the game when it was just released as well
I had a lot of fun with this! We need more werewolf ladies in pretty much all forms of media, plus I'm a sucker for old fashion shooters like this. The overworld is super charming too. I'm recommending this to my friends!
Just want to give you a heads up: I'm seeing errors on startup that look to be related to blender files being included in the ipk3. Deleting the WHOLE "Models" folder seems to be safe and clears up my error.
Also: to anyone who's complaining about naming, the ipk3 opens like a zip and you can change the iwadinfo.txt to your hearts content.
Yeah, this game rocks! Really fun and awesome. I love travelling at the speed of sound with Rain by run-jump-kicking everywhere!
Here are just a few things that I think could use some improvements:
Adding a sound cue for when the time switches from day to night, because as it is, the music just abruptly stops into complete silence.
Fixing the boss that looks like the armored warrior from Sekiro in the pyramid dungeon, because he doesn't approach the player. He can be beaten by standing still and shooting him with a ranged hero.
Buffing the final boss a lot, because it was a bit too easy for a final boss in my opinion
Everything else was great, especially the pixel art and music.
WOW! This game is a blast. Finished about 5 bosses so far. The first female boss was pretty hard, other bosses were a lot easier. Thanks for this cool game!
this game is great, real fun to fight the enemies and always keeps you on your toes with even the basic of enemies. i only played one of the characters so far but i will try to complete this game to give more results on my journey. but one thing i dont understand is this enemy whenever i die. whenever i die to the lancer, he just turns into this on death. is this a mistake, ar is this on purpose?
edit: i found out what it is, and i beat the game, i give it a 9/10, and my most favorite character has to be the goblin dude or whatever he suppose to be.
Really fun game! only issue I've had so far is that when I'm going up stairs and shoot as cricket the shots just hit the floor. other than that I've just enjoyed exploring and fighting the nasty beasts. Great job!
Why is it that Lycanthorn 1 and 2 have the exact same file names as Shrine 1 and Shrine 2? I'm sure that made things a lot easier to just copy paste over, but you've entirely screwed GZDoom users. When trying to take your .ipk3 it entirely breaks because it shares the same file names as Shrine. You shouldn't make people install GZ with every single game you make, just give us the WAD or ipk.
This is a fair point, but I believe if you just rename the ipk3 to a pk3 and it should work fine. It's designed to be played via the exe with the download. If the rename doesn't work, I'll upload a pk3 file of both games. Message again if it doesn't
Hey again Scum. Tried that name change and it doesn't seem to do it. If I use your exe everything works fine, of course, so if necessary ill just do that since it is the intended way to use it. However, what i'm trying to do, is have all of my doom wads on the same list, in the same GZDoom launcher. When I take Shrine 1's ipk3, (named shrine.ipk3) and shrine 2's ipk3 (named ShrineII.ipk3), AND, Lycanthorn 1's ipk3, (also named shrine.ipk3) and I haven't tried Lycanthorn 2 yet because of the issue here, but I assume its either named shrine or shrineII.
Obviously this means I need to rename the ipk because of identical names. Well, after changing the name to anything, including the ipk3 to pk3 change, it works in the sense of, Lycanthorn takes over control of the other ipk's data and position in the launcher so when I launch what was shrine, it will open Lycanthorn, but now there is no shrine on the list until I remove the Lycanthorn ipk3 from the file no matter what it's name is. It's still called shrine in the GZDoom list, but when opened it will be Lycanthorn.
Understandable if this isn't doable though, given what I'm doing is far from the intent. By all means ill just play the exe's if entirely necessary, it's purely just a QoL thing.
To replicate my issue, take your GZDoom file, put the shrine 1, 2 ipk3 in the file and open your list. Open shrine 1. Examine. Close GZDoom and add the Lycanthorn ipk3 to the file naming it whatever you prefer, either adding a number or changing it to lycanthorn. Open GZDoom again. Open what you now see as shrine 1(nameoffileyouchanged).
Absolutely amazing! I really like the addition of the kick. Even if it isn't good for combat, the speed-giving possibilities are many. Also, Rain looks much better with her foot paws not trapped in boots.
Very speedrunable, too, I just finished a Rain-only playthrough, not even obtaining the other partners, and doing 4/8 dungeons. Love that you can do that.
Man this was some damn good stuff, I loved how the game was open world. Reminded me of zelda on the nes with the dungeon structure, but not nearly as confusing.
Looks great! I would love to stream it on Twitch, but the boobie-boss could bring me intro trouble. Is there a stream safe version of this game? Thanks in advance!
Hey, just finished the game. Honestly really fun game. I'd have to say my favorite playstyle was Wrath. His mobility, quick attacks, and animations were just a ton of fun to play with. Honestly if there was a whole game built around that playstyle I would probably love it. Anyway, just made this account to tell you that this is a really cool game. Have a nice day.
Woah, this is dope! The music is great (That graveyard theme is SOOOO good!), the art is great, and the gameplay fells great. The Wraith character has been fun to play around with, exploring all the nooks and crannies in this map :)
Hi, I played your game today and I say, that's a great improvement from the first one. I enjoyed playing this game for 2,5 hours, until the end. Congrats for your work!

Expect news about that sometime in the next few months
Nice!!
Pls add payment options here. Also, what's with that update you tweeted about?
one of the best sequel ever

Lycanthorn II includes:

Currently, the Linux download does not show up in the itch client. Looks good, though!

NVM: you may have already corrected the errors internally with the "SurfaceSkin" values, it just looks really odd as they all call the same png
Edit: yeah, the models are working as you had them, I was able to read up about how GZdoom handles mtl files

Is it a complete product, I mean no more content updates (new levels, characters, endings, weapons, plot points etc)?

I'll be around for any updates you make!
Also, why no level select in Shrine?
as a fellow female worgen, doom and castlevania appreciator a big thumbs up from me, amazing stuff friend, keep it up
you make me smile evertime you launch a new game, great job man keep it up!
Absolutely amazing!

If you enjoyed wrath's playstyle you are really going to like what I'm making next. Stay tuned!
This Game looks very great! Nice job for everyone!
kinda reminded me doom
great game man
This is quite possibly one of the coolest games released in a while! Upvote if you agree!

GOODI had a wang-dang-doodle of the game, and enjoyed playing the first 45 mins. Here's a vid. :)
loovvee ittt!!!!! is the music available for purchase??
It looks like I only come up to waist height of the npcs, I can barely see over the tables. Is this normal or am I supposed to be taller?
Woah, this is dope! The music is great (That graveyard theme is SOOOO good!), the art is great, and the gameplay fells great. The Wraith character has been fun to play around with, exploring all the nooks and crannies in this map :)
Hi, I played your game today and I say, that's a great improvement from the first one. I enjoyed playing this game for 2,5 hours, until the end. Congrats for your work!
Can you make the special weapon/R a reconfigurable button? I'm playing with a controller. Otherwise the game is perfect!
Should be the reload key in the settings
Reload is missing from the options, but I can manually add 'Joy4=+reload' to gzdoom/lzdoom.ini under '[Shrine.Bindings]'
I'm really excited for this! I liked the first one, and this looks like a big improvement.
you da real MVP
Is it fully released, or can we expect more content, like new levels, characters, enemies, ending etc?
Fully released, with bug fixes and additional music on the way!
Could you upload the next version as a .zip please? Thanks in advance.
Now I want to wait for the music..! But thanks for the new release I'm sure I'll enjoy it as much as the original!
