So today we're here to show you some of the things we've been up to lately. After our tournament and player feedback we felt that especially in 1 vs 1 matches games could be quite one-sided where one decisive battle could determine the whole game. Now this isn't something we find bad, since we obviously don't want to punish good players in any way. However we did want to make it a little more strategic, and give players a chance to make a comeback if they do well. At the same time we didn't however want to implement things we felt ruin the core gameplay so after a little bit of brainstorming we came up with our latest addition to the game: Tech Trees!
The Tech Trees in its origin are pretty simple, and is somewhat similar to tech trees from other games. However how you get the points to spend might be a bit unfamilliar, since we didn't want to give players with the upper hand even a greater advantage. This resulted in every player recieving a point every 5th minute no matter what.

Also if you prefer to just play without the techs no need for worry, it will be possible in custom games to turn it off.
