Howdy Everyone!

Hope y'all are having a pleasant Holiday (or just an all round wonderful Tuesday). We decided to do a little goofy update this year to fix a GREIVOUS error in the game, which was the lack of the ability to grill tiny wieners on the grill in game and eat them so.... there ya go. *snort* Available in the Arizona Range.

Peace,
Anton

Howdy All!

It's been a while since we did a build for the game, as we've been heads-down busy building new levels for the game. This project has been going WONDERFULLY, and this week we've decided to pop our first technical test onto the Alpha branch, in a scene called 'Institution Preview'.

This scene is purely level geo, and represents the structural assets for about 1/5th of the coming Take & Hold level. We're doing this test to identify problems in lighting approach, collision, performance and navmesh early, so they can inform the process in building the level proper.

PLEASE NOTE, this level is temporary, and will be regularly changing as we swap in different assets to test, try fixes, and play around. The plan is to first launch a Take & Hold level with this content, which we're currently aiming to do in June, and then in late summer/early fall release a set of sandbox levels that use the same assets but in different smaller configurations.

If you decide to check it out, please share any issues you run into the bug reports section. We deeply appreciate it!

Hope you all have yourselves a wonderful weekend, and we'll have more for you soon.

-Anton
