This week, the team digs into the nitty-gritty of getting co-op and horde mode running smoothly. They tackle multiplayer bugs, AI quirks, and synchronization issues while stress-testing early playtest maps.

Turret redesigns move forward, focusing on making them deployable engineer tools rather than overpowered base defenses. Plus, a deep dive into upcoming civilian weapons, RTS improvements, and how lighting systems might evolve. With internal playtests ramping up, the goal is clear—fine-tune the foundation before handing it off for player testing.
