Hello all,
I am happy to release the next update. This update mainly improves the multiplayer experience with some bug fixes and optimizations in the netcode, especially in the fragmentation of the packages. In addition, some adjustments have been made to the game balance, making it easier to get started but promising a more constant difficulty increase.
In the coming days I will publish an updated roadmap for the next months. Feel free to send me feedback if there are specific features you'd like to see in the game. At the moment, I'm still a bit undecided about which elements I should implement first. For example, some players have asked for a "true co-op mode" so that you can play the current single player maps in pairs. Any further feedback is greatly appreciated.
