Aight, I just got the paperwork back from Steam, and we are green to move to beta now, and then to Early Access in August.
We also got our funding secured, which means we can finally pull in more artists at a fair wage to get the ball rolling again.
Additionally, we signed with a playtesting company, so we now have professional testing assistance on the game.
Currently, there are only two testing servers, EU and US, but I plan to expand that with a dedicated Russian server and a dedicated canadian server, since game law between US and Canada are soon to change.
Also, we are making sure that everything is GDPR compliant, so early players might be prompted to re-sign the community terms again by the client.
The client got some healthy updates this weekend, including:
- Unified BGM system to manage music across loading screens, ect.
- 5 new tracks added to the soundtrack.
- Widescreen monitor support.
- Accelerated GPU use for multicore devices.
- Improved ping across voice-server system.
- Game now supports no-voice variants.
- Discord link directly in main lobby.
- Redesigned news view.
- Quit button in lobby.
Future client updates this week:
- Wednesday: Portrait selection system
- Thursday: Advanced game picker
- Friday: Wolf role in-game.
We are also giving the website a major overhaul, since a lot of information posted there are quite old.
