#RISK OF RAIN CHARACTERS FANART FULL#

Hopoo released the game into early access on Windows on Maat that time they estimated that the full development process would take another year. Items also had to be redesigned to deal with the dimension change. In designing some of the returning monsters Hopoo noted that they had to design new attacks to make them more challenging in a 3D space. The sequel uses the Unity engine, which Hopoo had to learn to use, and 3D levels which the team spent a long time making. The sequel was first announced in May 2017, at which time the team had already been working on the game for 6 months. Hopoo Games noted that the 3D option provided 'much deeper design spaces and more possibilities for cool gameplay' as well as more ways to artistically express themselves. They transitioned the prototype from 2D to 2.5D, representing the character in 3D graphics but otherwise playing as a 2D platformer, but this did not work to their satisfaction and felt it was better to move the game fully to 3D, with the transition being relatively quick to complete. Hopoo wanted to use this approach for the sequel, but the 2D graphic approach did not give them enough visual space to work with. The transition to 3D was partly inspired by fan art for the original game that showed the various objects the player collected shown on the character. When they started development on the sequel, Hopoo started with a 2D-based prototype with the player in control of one of the monsters in the first game, as to mix up the formula for the sequel. In the metagame, players unlock access to new playable survivors, items, abilities and game modifiers by completing certain in-game achievements once unlocked, new survivors and modifiers become available to select from at the start of the game, and new items will start appearing randomly from in-game chests. Every few minutes, the aliens' level increases, thus scaling their max health and damage the longer the player's run progresses. The difficulty of the game increases as the player progresses through a run, based on the duration of the current run as well as an initial difficulty scale set by the player. The items collected from chests offer a wide range of boosts to the players carrying them and provide both synergistic effects with other items as well as the potential to stack their effects if multiple copies of the same item are acquired. Currency cannot be carried between levels, as all currency is converted to experience before teleporting to the next level. Currency can be used to open chests found throughout the level that drop random items, or to activate turrets and drones which can either attack enemies or heal the player. Experience is added to the player's level, and if enough is gained, the player will level up, slightly increasing their damage dealt and max health. Each alien killed drops experience and currency which the player picks up. On each level, the goal is to kill aliens while locating a teleporter randomly placed on the level once the teleporter is activated, the players must defend themselves from a larger onslaught of aliens, including bosses, until the teleporter is fully charged. Risk of Rain 2 features several of the same playable characters, creatures, and items from the first game, but also adds new survivors and most notably transitions the game from 2D to a 3D environment. Each survivor has their own unique set of skills, providing different approaches to gameplay based on which survivor the player chooses. There are a total of fourteen survivors, two of which are only available in the Survivors of the Void expansion.

Most survivors are locked until the player completes challenges pertaining to each one the only survivors available at first are the Commando and Huntress. Risk of Rain 2 follows a similar approach to the first title, in which one to four players must progress several levels while killing enemies. The game received generally positive reviews upon release.

The game supports up to four players in online multiplayer. Over time, the game's difficulty increases, spawning more powerful and dangerous creatures. To survive, they navigate through various environments, killing monsters and looting chests to collect items that boost their offensive and defensive capabilities. Players control a survivor who is stranded on an alien planet. A sequel to 2013's Risk of Rain, it was released in early access for Microsoft Windows, Nintendo Switch, PlayStation 4 and Xbox One in 2019 before fully releasing in August 2020 with a release for Stadia coming a month later. Risk of Rain 2 is a roguelike third-person shooter developed by Hopoo Games and published by Gearbox Publishing. Microsoft Windows, Switch, PlayStation 4, and Xbox One
