We put a lot of effort this month into upcoming features. A lot of them won’t be visible for a little while, but we’ll soon be able to start showing you all the cool stuff that the game will support in the final release!
In the meantime, we’ve put in a bunch of new toys for you to play with. First, we added a full set of new abilities for each character class. They really change the way each plays! We also implemented customizing each character’s loadout, so you can find a setup that works for you.
We’re also working on the tech to support customizing your character’s appearance. While all characters currently support it , only the Brute is customizeable at the moment because have a bunch of palette swaps for him. Let your creative spirit soar!
We’ve also added a bunch of little improvements thoughout to improve the experience, and we’ve got more coming! We hope you like the build!
