Build #017 is now live!


After about a month, Build #017 is out, and with good reason!

UWP IS UPDATED AGAIN!

That’s right! Polystrike is now updated on the Windows Store! We had Build #013 stuck on the Windows Store due to Visual Studio giving us missing file errors. We traced the problem back to a Photon Networking update, which is what pushed us to convert the game to use Photon Networking 2.0.
Also, due too a bunch of bugs and just the impracticality of ClassBags, they were removed.

Right, onto the full changelog now!

What’s new in Build #017:

  • Added Stats! Exterminations (Ext) for “kills”, Terminations (Trm) for “deaths”, and Deactivations (Dac) for bot “kills”

  • Added a player list. Simply hold tab

  • Added Engineer class

  • Added a new sidearm, the Maverick, and set it as the secondary for Medic and Engineer classes

  • Client timeouts should happen less often now

  • Player movement has been smoothed out

  • Removed ClassBags

  • PostProcessing quality can now be changed

  • Converted to use Photon Networking v2

  • Fixed our UWP export error so Polystrike is now updated on the Windows Store

Noted bugs:

  • Turning Post Processing Quality to Very Low will actually cause a lot of lag. Keep Post Processing Quality at Low if you are having issues with lag

Polystrike ‘em all!

Shoobies leave a sticky trail of mucus in their wake, which can impede movement for any creature that steps in it.

Here's a peaceful little forest scene for this #screenshotsaturday, from the beginning of the game.

In the quest for accessibility, I'm adding Resurrection Shrines for players on the 'novice' end of the platforming spectrum.

In order to unlock the power of a Shrine, you must collect 3 'Souls' from your dead corpses! (the floating blue orbs)
