Welcome back on Devlog!

Hey! I'm starting to see a pattern here, we do a blog every 2 months. That's a bit funny if you think about that, anyway... Hi! Welcome again on BWDLC Devlog! This devlog will be mostly focused on Playable Kusho and the newest gameplay teaser that was promised on FUNKCON2 Trailer so... Pico (Kusho Mix)! Yay! Again, since "3 Days of FUNKCON" never happened we had time to polish everything mod related, currently Bonus WeekEnd (The Week) shows it the best with it's new background, but we also gotta focus on the bonus(HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA.) part of the mod and it's playable mixes. Plus I'm finally not writing this blog alone, stick around to find out who that is!

Pico (Kusho Mix)

by anvisoreal

And that's the second Kusho Mix you got to hear from the mod (First one was Ugh for anyone curious). I think there's not much to tell here about it so I might as well drop a few funfacts:

• The guitar you hear in the song is real and was recorded for the song by LitrGWH, one of our musicians who's also a skilled guitar player.

• This song was actually redone recently by me(anvi) because I didn't liked the original. It kind of felt like a weird mix of sample loops that weren't working together too well. We might drop the old version of songs one day. This makes it the newest playable song made for the mod.

• It's the first Kusho Mix in which I decided to record custom samples for Kusho (his "Go Pico")

But after all that's not all the surprised this teaser holds, so why don't we take a quick look at them?

Game Over!!!

by anvisoreal

Yeah, we finally added a game over for Kusho. When making it I wanted it to be something more unique than the "modern game overs" other mods have and so this one is a neat combination of what BF and Pico have. Now I should probably explain what happens in the animation. Kusho is an alien being from other dimension. His eyes aren't used to Earth's atmosphere, which is why they're constantly watering. Game Over presents a “what if” scenario: if his eyes stopped watering, they would simply... burst, explode, however you want to see it. Don't worry, he's fine.

The game over theme was done by me again, this time it's actually a pretty old track but i'm pretty proud of it. kinda sets the fucked up vibe this animation is supposed to have.

NEW MECHANIC - KUSHO'S HP BAR

by ahmed7p39

Hey, I'm ahmed! New coder for Bonus WeekEnd DLC and I coded this special hud mechanic. So, basically Kusho has his own custom bar splitted into 10 health points. At the start and restart the health bar animates step-by-step up to half health smoothly. Missing a note or hitting a ghost note drops his health down by one, and every 25 combo streak gives him a health boost 

Special thanks to anysad for cleaning up the code a bit!
