Hi all We hope you are well and safe during these tough times. We are still working to try finish the migration to steam networking.

Hi all just a quick update on the situation of the update. The Update will be delayed until at least January 2020 as we have no other choice than to redo the entire networking in the project.

Hello, The country in which we live in had storms an damage major power lines on a power grid that was already under stress. As a result we are without power daily for hours at a time which is really affecting our work progress. We are close to being able to release an update, but with the current situation we can give a estimation of release in-between 2 and 4 weeks. We have done research into…
We have been doing internal tests on the 2km squared Open Play Multiplayer map, currently it lacks the objectives for players and has some networking problems which are affecting the wildlife to only be seen locally. We are working hard to resolve these issues, but at least we have a working version of the map and multiplayer. The single player levels have had the lighting baked onto the scenes…

The new map and game mode is still under development and has been receiving updates. Particularly the crystal meteor event which can occur while playing on the map. This event will require players to find a crystal that can be harvested and then call in the refinery to obtain resources. This will allow us to implement a inventory system at a later stage that can be further expanded on. We appre…
We are busy baking the lights for all the levels as we upgrade the Spider Wars to the new Unity, this process is extremely heavy on computers and can take some time to complete.

We hope you have a great w…

We have been working on a 3D navigation mesh system that will tie in closely to the fauna and flora. This system will also lay down the ground works for AI.
