Complete overhaul (Again) Highblast is now running on the Godot game engine, it is a lighter engine so the game should run smoother. Highblast has been an arc of game development learning for us, nothing has been complete until now. If things are not super polished, don't worry. More updates will be coming out as soon as possible. We wanted to have the game out by the new year so enjoy! Things…
Confirming the last post's speculation We know that Unity has taken a few things back and improved the situation. For people who need Unity, that's great. But we are not going back. This is now less about disliking Unity and more so because we've discovered how great the Godot engine is! It's just amazing, with more options for visual style combining it's 2d and 3d modes! Unfortunately learning…
Unity Can No Longer be Trusted Dear community, share this with friends because this is important. Unity has announced that by the start of next year if a game has passed the installs and revenue threshold Unity will be paid 20 cents per install. Due to us not making any money off of HIGHBLAST we (may) not be affected by these changes but this still means Unity will send trackers with the game (…

Development: Many people are confused about multiplayer and what the game is about. I will tell you this. We completely restarted development a number of months ago because we lost the original files and it was a poorly put together test bed anyway. Now ilikefrogs101 and I, QadarCG want to make this into an actual game that is fun to play. Multiplayer is planned but we are far from it. Right no…
The last update was pretty broken so this should make it more playable. Hope you enjoy. We've fixed the lights, navmeshes and doors etc... Base models and colliders were also fixed up, we constantly update them but this time they broke quite a bit. Brief oversights before the final build and what not. A patch has been very delayed so here, have our patch! Any small bugs you find please post the…
