Updates??? Updates!?!?

That's right! To celebrate three years of It's A Wipe! being on Steam I put together a new Player Made Raid for the occasion! This raid is intended for guilds that have beaten the game and are solidly geared. Anyone that farmed a ton might find it a little on the easy side, but new guilds will wipe pretty quickly.

Why a Player Made Raid, instead of a new core raid that drops loot, you might ask? Well, starting today, I want to put forth a challenge to the It's A Wipe! community. Since I have primarily been working on my next game, Heroes of Kingspoint, I haven't had much free time. I literally put together this new raid yesterday. Now I do have a lot of experience, since I made the original game and all. But, I think that, given enough time, you the players can come up with even more entertaining raids.

So, I am announcing the following contest:
From now until April 1st, 2018 any owners of It's A Wipe! may submit a working Player Made Raid to the workshop to enter this contest. From April 1st until April 30th owners of It's A Wipe! can submit a vote for their favorite raid submitted during the contest period. The winner will get a beta invite and free copy of Heroes of Kingspoint when it is finally released (probably 2019). If there are more than 10 submissions, I will also give a 2nd and 3rd prize of a free copy of my next game, just without getting to try it during beta testing.

I hope that more raids from the community will help everyone get more entertainment out of the game, so this is my attempt to give people a push towards trying their hand at making their own fights. I know the player made raid system is a little clunky. So, if you need help getting your raid working or need mechanics added that are not currently available, feel free to either contact me on the forums here or sent an e-mail to [email protected].

Some small patch notes, relating to player made raid content.
- Fixed an issue with BombTimer always doing 15 damage.
- Added an Explode command that works like BombTimer, but with a set round instead of the more awkward timer used by respawning bombs.

Thanks for playing the game!
