Hey everyone!
I'm still hard at work on the online multiplayer update! It's been about two months since I started working on it, but I think we're not far off now!
Most big systems work, but there's still some missing, and there's still some other bits and bobs that need attention before I can really push it live onto Steam. You'll hear about it soon!
For now:
Zeepkist's First (Real) Achievements!
As some of you might have noticed, I've replaced the "Play Zeepkist Alpha" achievement with a simple "Play Zeepkist". This is because it's been brought to my attention that there's quite a few people here on Steam who like to 100% achievements in games, and an achievement that can only be obtained during the game's alpha would make it impossible for people to 100% Zeepkist's achievements.
So this old achievement:
Is now this one:
But why is there a Zeepkist on the achievement? 👀
Because more than just looking neat on your Steam profile, I've coupled Steam's achievement system to actual in-game cosmetics! Meaning that for every achievement you get, you'll be able to show it off in-game to all of your friends! (or rivals, who am I to judge!)
Adding achievements is going to be an ongoing process, and for the online multiplayer update I'll be adding Zeepkist's first 7 achievements!
They are, in order:
Online Winner x1
It's an internet cable!
Online Winner x5
A satellite dish, useful for playing online multiplayer in outer space!
Online Winner x10
A cool British Racing Green racing helmet!
Online Winner x25
A neat top hat!
Online Winner x50
It's an internet cable but fast.
Online Winner x100
An orange traffic cone with a racing flag sticking out the top! This hat is positively huge and you will no doubt stand out in online lobbies!
Online Winner x1337
Hey, I didn't say getting 100% was going to be easy. In any case, I believe in you!
These cosmetics can only be unlocked by achieving these achievements, so ya'll best be ready to start achieving when the online update hits! 😋
That's all from me for now!
Next time you'll hear from me I'll hopefully be announcing the Zeepkist Online launch!!
