You Can Now Knock Guards Through Windows

If you jump at them hard enough. I forgot the guards would need a falling animation for this, so it wasn’t on John’s list. It’s cool though, I’ve got it covered.

Update: John’s proposal to fix this:

Update: What we actually ended up with.

VelvetFistIronGlove:

If they fall like that, the only logical result is that when they land, they get embedded in the ground, leaving just their legs sticking out.

barley:

That is exactly how I would fall were I pushed out a window. Perfect!

I can see myself trying to do a run where every kill I make must be done through a window.

Gwathdring:

I kind of like that version. Does there have to be an improved animation? It adds a certain character to the game … if it’s too against your vision, then I’m sure whatever animation you come up with will also be good. But this is fantastic.

Gwathdring:

Also, what VelvetFist said.

Bret:

We always say something has a certain character in the rough, and then the real thing comes in, and we love it more.

It’s like clockwork.

Man. So many window kills in the future.

Entropy:

Have him do the walking animation. upside down. Except 10x faster. yeeeah.

verendus:

Wouldn’t you still be holding on to him?

Jackohbite:

Well now, that’d just be silly, wouldn’t it?

icouldbeahero:

You should be able to punch them in midair.

dirk:

Maybe something along these lines…

The_B:

I’m being hella picky here, but it’d be awesome if the guard’s hat was actually off his head, falling just slightly alongside him.

Gwathdring:

Damn. I really like the one where their hats switch. It was a beautiful idea while it lasted. :'( I shall miss it.

miAlx:

I like it, can’t wait to see more! :D
