South African Load Shedding



Hello,
The country in which we live in had storms an damage major power lines on a power grid that was already under stress. As a result we are without power daily for hours at a time which is really affecting our work progress. We are close to being able to release an update, but with the current situation we can give a estimation of release in-between 2 and 4 weeks.

We have done research into providing power for ourselves during the load shedding and have been looking into obtaining UPS power supply, unfortunately they are very expensive and may take some time to obtain.

Till then we will do what we can, whilst we have the power to do so and appreciate your assistance.

If anyone would like to support us, you can head on to our Patreon at https://www.patreon.com/SpiderWars.

We hope you have a great week further,

News for Single player and Multiplayer



We have been doing internal tests on the 2km squared Open Play Multiplayer map, currently it lacks the objectives for players and has some networking problems which are affecting the wildlife to only be seen locally. We are working hard to resolve these issues, but at least we have a working version of the map and multiplayer.



The single player levels have had the lighting baked onto the scenes and the final level has reached more of a complete state. We will be focusing on the game play and mechanics on the final single player level that will be available in the next update.

Continued Progress


We are continuously working on the final level for the single player story. The final details are being added to the level and we will be looking towards mechanics and enemy engagements over the next few weeks.

We appreciate any feedback you have, and hope you have a great week further.

Conclusion to the Story.


We have started production on the final level for the single player mode. We plan to address more of the lore within this level and create some unique encounters for the players. This level will also be the conclusion to the story line.

We hope you have a great weekend,

New Map and Game Mode Updates


The new map and game mode is still under development and has been receiving updates.

Particularly the crystal meteor event which can occur while playing on the map. This event will require players to find a crystal that can be harvested and then call in the refinery to obtain resources. This will allow us to implement a inventory system at a later stage that can be further expanded on.

We appreciate any feedback regarding the new map and game mode and hope you have a great weekend.
