Update 0.6.0
Here they are - persistent lobbies!
Finally, we had the chance to update our engine to Unreal Engine 4.19. Updating to a newer version enables a bunch of new techniques and performance improvements, which will contribute to our next updates. Performing such a huge update – we actually skipped 3 major versions - takes a lot of time, which results in a smaller changelog this time.
The first positive impact of 4.19 is, that we’ve finally managed to implement persistent lobbies. This allows you to stay in a lobby with all your buddies after finishing a map.
The new theme we are working on for several month is almost asset complete, which means that we are currently putting everything together into an official map. We still can't provide any estimation about the release date. Other planned features:
- VR Support
- Mac & Linux support
- Expanding the Eventsystem
- Better Controller Support
- Keybindings

Take care,
