Online Multiplayer Playtest update

Hello, HeckStars!


The online multiplayer playtest has been going on for a week now, and we’ve received a lot of feedback, suggestions, and even some criticism (which is good)!

HOWEVER!
We need more feedback and more testers!

We’re excited to announce that after the first round of feedback, the online multiplayer playtest is now available to everyone! We took a lot of comments we received into account, and we’re also updating the playtest with some new sweet features!

Customization system




Who (or what) do you want to be today – a samurai? How about fruit? Depending on your mood, choose different hats and colors for your spiders!

Spiders colors are available by default, but hats are unlocked by getting achievements (to make it more interesting, we suggest you try to find them yourself 😉)

To customize your spider, jump to the island on the left side of the main lobby.

New weapons


[h3]Double Particle Blade[/h3]
This weapon features two blades on each side. Throw, spin, deflect attacks and crush your friends (or foes) with twice the power!



[h3]Hecksaw[/h3]
A weapon that shoots a disc that deals damage. The disc does not disappear immediately, it is active for a while and moves by bouncing off surfaces. Try it on the new Ant Domain map! 😉



New maps


[h3]Swings[/h3]
You will have to fight on platforms that resemble swings on this map. Pushing your friends into lava is now easier than ever.

[h3]Ant Domain[/h3]
A closed map in the form of a labyrinth. With its many branching tunnels, there’s plenty of room for strategy, but limited space will make it harder for you to dodge your enemy’s attacks. Plan your battle accordingly!



As a reminder, this online multiplayer playtest is available until June 9th, 23:59 GMT, so you still have plenty of time to share your feedback with us!
