Good news! We received the files for the brand new interface today (The main menu); which was one of the last major hurdles before the rerelease. The new interface completely redesigns and improves the main menu, allowing us to fully support a proper options menu, control reconfiguration, and of course, the necessary buttons for hosting and joining online multiplayer games. It’s all in a snazzy new design which is much more friendly to use (and friendly on the eyes.)
The remainder of this week we’ll be hooking it up, and making sure features like control binding and the different options menu settings are working properly.
While that is going on, the artists who made the interface will be finishing up the new HUD (the stuff you see on your screen during gameplay, like how much ammo and points you have). Once the HUD is complete and hooked up the v2 update will be complete, and we’ll be releasing it for all of you to enjoy.
And while we were waiting for the interface to be completed, we did some extra polish on the game’s AI to make sure it’s more efficient and intelligent. It should be a reasonable improvement over what you see in the current version of Final Rush. (Not to mention plenty of glitch fixes, visual improvements, and gameplay tweaks)
And the good news is, once this update is complete, we’ll be able to start a much more frequent update schedule. (We would’ve done that from the start if we didn’t have to rebuild the entire game)
