Progress Update - Imperial Survival Beta 1.0 (Release Very Soon) news

*The Imperial Survival Mode is almost here!

Proud to announce the first beta for the Imperial Survival mode, my primary focus right now, is to release very soon here this week! It will again feature 5 maps to play on, as well as local 2 player co-op via keyboard and game-pad, and a fully functioning wave system with a credits/currency system as well. There will also be ammo dispensers, health dispensers, and more throughout the map, that you can purchase from using your saved credits balance. Credits save on exit, the 1 key via num-pad, and purchasing from a store. There is also of course, a leveling system, and upgrades for each player class, with much variety. XP and player level saves on exit, and returning to the main menu as well.

*The wave system features a wave counter, kill counter per wave, and a display for the required kills on every round start. Each wave you are assigned a required amount of enemies to kill, currently 6-12 for testing, meaning numbers for required kills will be in a random range from 6-12 for example. This number will most likely be configurable upon a setting on release. So if you meet the required kills for that wave, a new wave is queued for the next 30 seconds, then a new wave begins, and so on, and so forth.

-Hope you all are excited as I am for this, and stay tuned!
