Samurai GUNN 2 New Engine Progress
A lot has happened since the last Samurai GUNN 2 Update. We've moved on from using Game Maker, built our own game engine, and have been hard at work re-writing the entire game. Because of this we've been able to address some major issues and create a strong technical foundation so that we can support the game long term.
Our task tracker says we're 58.33% done! ːsteamthumbsupː
Here's a bit of what we've got cooking:
- Character Buffs!
We're adding some extra sauce to every character! For example, Slug can now run on ceilings, and Pops has a deadly new throw.
- Rollback Netcode
We have re-built the entire game from the ground up with a focus on rollback netcode. It works, and it rules.
- Ranked and Casual Matchmaking
Find your most exciting and balanced match-ups thanks to our new matchmaking features which implement the Glicko-2 rating system. Not in it to win it? Hop into the casual queue and enjoy a variety of less serious game modes instead.
- Cross Platform Networking
We've been very serious about creating a code-base that's stable long term so we can support the game on Switch, PS5, Xbox, and whatever new devices may arrive in the future. Not only that, but you'll be able to play against anyone online, regardless of what platform they're using.
Thanks for reading! We're looking forward to the re-launch of Samurai GUNN 2
