So many of you could think something like
"Okay, no updates for so many days? The game is dead..."
No it's not.
Just few moments ago, I've finally fixed one of the most terrifying problems that I experienced during the process of development.
All of this, was because a lot of you, couldn't make fully working servers.
This resulted, in a massive spam with questions like:
"Why can't I join anyone? Why can't anyone join me?"
I've worked hard on something that could solve this problem.
You don't even know how much did I suffer...
But...
After all of this pain... It's finally "working"
Yeah... It may be glitchy... and it might be not working sometimes... But it's still better than nothing...
Now, (I guess) you are able to join people... (almost?) all of the servers, that people have made. There's no more of the port forwarding issues, you just make a server, and then people are able to join you. That's it.
New requirement
For all of this to work, you will need a Steam, running in a background. (You have to be fully signed in of course...)
GameJolt is not going anywhere, you will still need a GameJolt account too...
The game will just need Steam + GameJolt now.
GameJolt - for player accounts, achievements (trophies) and data store, saving progress and stuff
Steam - networking - server making and joining.
When is this all coming?
All of this will be brought with 0.5.8 version. It's not available yet, but it's that close to be released as it never was.
You just need to wait a little bit more.
I still need to fix a lot of things - bugs, glitches and all of other stuff, but it's not that far as before now...
I want to say thank you, to one of the people from FNaF: Spectrality Discord Server (which is dead now, F)
I want to thank you, for telling me about Steam Transport. I don't remember who it was, but someone just told me about it - thank you.
