To see multiplayer notes, please read "ReadMe - Multiplayer.txt"!
The multiplayer might be still a little bit unstable, so it might cause the game to crash.
If that's the case, I'd like to receive some details:
- What happened?
- What were you doing before this error occurred?
- Computer specs?
- Broadband speed?
- Number of players on the server?
Some new screenshots:
Version 0.0.4.3 teaser:
What's next? I was about to start making character customization, but instead of that I reworked the whole save&load; and checkpoint-system. Multiplayer had its part as well: The average broadband consumption decreased from 2.5kb/s to 1kb/s. I really hope I'm able to roll some new graphics on each update.
I'm still continuing to improve multiplayer experience as well trying to make the game even more lightweight to run. Until next time, the version number will go up to 0.0.5.0. Once the customization is finished, it's time to move this game one level higher and get it out of the alpha... to the beta! Still, however, this doesn't mean anything. There's still "so much to do" before I can even think the final release.
There's also subreddit dedicated to this game.
