We're super happy to be a part of the steam game festival! For a short while you'll be able to play HyperStacks and enjoy all of its many features while it's still on Alpha!
We want you all to play and test as much as possible, and to take into account the future events that we will be doing:

Level Creation Contest, where the creators of the best levels will be rewarded with a key to keep the game after the event

Along with this event we will also have a Gameplay Clips Contest, where creators of the best clips and gifs will be rewarded a steam key, allowing them to keep the game!

We'll also be hosting an AMA on our discord server
Squirrel Bytes Discord!


We've created a couple of channels in our server for the designated contests! Do submit your content there!

- Discord clip contest channel: Send your gameplay clips and gifs here!
- Discord level creation contest channel: Screenshots of levels are to be posted here!

To be elegible for the contest, all levels should be published and available for all players.
Refer to the Contest channels for more info about the events

We hope you enjoy the Steam event as well as our little competitions! Have fun and game on!

Cheers

These new updates bring some new improvements and bug fixes as well as new features ready to use!

[h2] FEATURES AND IMPROVEMENTS [/h2]

[h3] Level Editor [/h3]

• The Play button in the level editor is now functional, you can test your levels directly in the level editor
  
• Now you need to complete your level first before uploading it publicly
  You will start playing your level when you press the "publish" button, once you complete it, your level will be published automatically, this has been done to avoid people sharing literally impossible levels.
  

[h3] Game [/h3]

Camera tracking options have been added,
these options are accessible from the gameplay menu
the follow-up options are:

• None: It will show what the player sees...
  
• Intelligent: the camera will follow the player and seed him in 3rd person
  
• Intelligent+: is like Smart mode but is also influenced by the direction the player is looking
  

[h2] BUG FIXES [/h2]

[h3] Level Editor [/h3]

• An issue where the "Time" property of the trigger target was not saved correctly has been resolved.
  
• An issue has also been fixed where the "Switch" property of the Target Trigger was not saved either
  
• A problem has been solved where the "Switch" property was not working
  

[h3] Game [/h3]

• The problem of bullet persistence when returning to the lobby has been fixed
  
• The problem where living enemies persisted when returning to the lobby has been fixed

[h2]EXTRA INFO[/h2]
I will be implementing the support for SteamVR, I hope to have it ready before the 16th of this month
After that, I will be working on the cooperative multiplayer system, everyone who has access to alpha will be able to try it with their friends if they also have access to it, make sure you are on our server so that we can give you more keys when the multiplayer trial version is ready.


Have a nice weekend
