STACK4 is about to be getting its biggest update yet. Version 0.3.0 will feature an online multiplayer mode where you can compete against every other player of STACK4 in realtime regardless of the platform they play the game on.

The upcoming STACK4 version 0.3.0 is going to feature a ton of changes but the most noteworthy is the new online multiplayer mode.
For now this is going to be arcade-mode only, but the classic mode is on my todolist.
You can simply try out the new mode without registering or anything. You have a limited amount of online matches free per day, so there is no need to pay if you don't want to. But since I now need servers to run for STACK4 I also need to take those costs into account when people excessively use the online mode and generate traffic.

Other changes:

  • arcade mode is now limited by rounds not by 100.000 points - ergo the one with the most points after 20 rounds wins
  • the ai uses the +1 extra now
  • all new sound effects, thanks to DanielWeltraum
  • extras drop in empty columns now too
  • various conveniance functions like scrolling lists using swipe
