RWBY: Grimm Eclipse is a mission-based character
v0.1.2 Introduction: RWBY: Grimm Eclipse is a mission-based character action game, and the first game developed internally by RoosterTeeth Productions! This play guide will cover the basics of how to play the current build of game and some exciting new gameplay features to explore! Controls: It is recommended that you play with an X-Box 360 controller for an optimal experience, but since we like you, we’ve gone ahead and made PC controls work too.

We chose to only implement one game mode this time around so that we can get testing focused on multiplayer. In Extermination, Players are tasked with clearing out all of the Grimm throughout the map as fast as they can. As they progress, they will activate zones which lock them into an area of the map until they defeat all enemies within said area. Once all areas have been cleared, the mission will be completed. At the end of the mission, players will be scored based on their performance. There are five rankings in total: F, D, C, B, and A. New Features - Multiplayer: This build introduces a new key feature to Grimm Eclipse: Multiplayer! You’ll be able to connect and play with your friends to complete the given mission as fast as you can. Up to four players can play during a session. Starting a Server: To start a server, first have the player looking to host click Multiplayer. There they can change both their Username and their Room Name. The Username is simply the name you’ll see in the server lobby. The Room Name is the name of the room/server other people will be connecting to. Once you’re good to go, the server can be started by pressing Start Server. If it was successful, a small grey message will appear beneath the Connect to Server button saying where you started their server, and your Username will appear in the bottom right server lobby. Connecting to a Server: To connect to a server, just type in your desired Username and the Room Name of the server you’re joining. Once you’re connected, you’ll be able to see all currently connected players in the lobby at the bottom right of the screen, as well as their names and your ping. When everyone’s ready, the host can press Play to get started. As you can see, up to four players can be in any given session. Have fun! Copyright © 2014 Rooster Teeth Productions Combat: While the current in-game elements make up a large amount of the core gameplay, there are still a fair amount of systems and mechanics we will be adding in the future to help flesh out the overall experience. Basic Attacks are the primary means of combat. Basic Attacks combo together with Special Abilities, and they will restore Aura with each hit. You can also Shoot by pressing the Shoot button. Shooting does little damage, but allows you to attack from a distance. Aura is your character's life force, represented by the white bar. Any time you take damage, you will lose Aura, and it will slowly recharge after a few seconds. If you take damage while your Aura is at 0, however, you will lose Health instead, represented by the green bar. If your health bar reaches 0, you will become incapacitated. You will be unable to move or attack while incapacitated until you are revived by an ally. Should all players become incapacitated, the game will be over and you will fail the mission. Guarding will restore aura, but can be broken with unblockable attacks. Pressing the Guard button while moving will perform a Dodge, making you unhittable for a brief second. Reviving is done by standing next to an incapacitated ally and holding down the Interact button. It will take a little over a second to revive someone, and when they get up, while their health will be restored, their aura will remain at 0. Locking-On will orient the camera to focus on your target. You can lock onto a target by pressing the Lock-On button. You can also see the target's Health in the upper right corner. If you aren't currently locked onto anything, you will attack the target closest to you. Special Abilities are unique techniques that consume Aura upon use, but deal high amounts of damage. You can integrate Specials Abilities into your combos however you choose, but only when you have enough Aura. Use them wisely! Conclusion: That's all for this update! As always, we’d love to hear any feedback/critique you may have for us! We hope you enjoy RWBY: Grimm Eclipse! Copyright © 2014 Rooster Teeth Productions
