Multiplayer License Overrun! Holy Cow!

Tractor to the Infinite

11 years ago

its 4:30 PM, and so far today, we’ve had 950 plays. Wow. I tried logging in myself at one point, but it never got past “Connecting to the Network…”. Heres why.

Tractor to the Infinite uses the Photon unity networking plugin - The free version allows us to have 20 people online at one time. I never realy expected us to surpass this; But amazingly, only two days after the release, we have. I’ve aquired a 30 day license that allows us to go up to 100 people, and am currently working on implementing it. However, when that runs out, what happens?

Option One: Purchase a pro license - I can get a lifetime 100 user license - However upgrading from this is expensive.

Option Two: Setup a server - If I manage to setup a server, then we can get a 100 user license for free. An upgrade to 500 users is only 25 bucks a month, which will be more than affordable at that point.

We’ll cross that bridge when we come to it.

As for right now, I need to get that trial license in!

May your servers always be humming,

Quantum precognition is one of the most powerful cards. End game cards & equipment. Demo/alpha build boss is no match for this deck.

Updated the chest in the maze, adding sound, particles and better animation. But what's in the chest?
