Devlog #1 – Vorrak Enters the Arena (Boss Reveal)

What’s up! This is my first official devlog for my solo FPS project — think Doom-style speed and violence, but with my own twist.

Let me introduce you to the first boss-class enemy I’ve been working on:

Vorrak – The Rampaging Bull

Meet Vorrak — a brutal, mace-wielding monster built to smash you into paste if you stand still too long. This guy is the first real "boss wall" in the game — once you meet him, it’s either kill or be killed.

📊 Boss Stats (Current Build)

• Name: Vorrak

• Type: Boss-Class Enemy

• Health: 1000 HP

• Speed: Medium-fast, enough to pressure you

• Role: Mid-game damage sponge and skill check

Vorrak’s Attacks (3 total for now)

He’s got three close-range melee attacks, no magic, no BS — just pain:

1. Ground Slam

   • Both maces crash into the floor. Big AOE damage. Don’t be close when this happens.

2. Left Arm Swing

   • A fast, heavy swing from his left mace. Used when you’re circling or strafing too close.

3. Right Arm Swing

   • Same idea, different side. Slightly slower, hits harder.

Right now, there’s no dodge mechanic, so this boss fight is all about movement, smart positioning, and raw aggression — like classic Doom fights.

💻 Behind the Scenes (Solo Dev Life)

It’s just me building this, piece by piece. Vorrak’s model is in, his animations are in progress, and I’m working on:

• Attack telegraphs (subtle tells before each move)

• Better hit impact (blood, sounds, maybe screen shake)

• Balancing his speed so he feels dangerous, not cheap

I’m keeping the gameplay tight, brutal, and momentum-driven. This is an FPS where you don’t camp, you don’t wait, you fight.

🎯 What’s Next

• Add a health bar for Vorrak

• Intro cutscene (simple one)

• Death explosion or cinematic kill

• Start prototyping the next arena boss

That’s it for devlog #1 — more soon! Vorrak’s just the beginning. If you like what you’re seeing, stay tuned. This game's gonna be loud, bloody, and badass.
