5v5 PRE-ALPHA LIVE STREAM



We recently posted a major update to the current build- bumping us to v0.0.4 which is a huge step in advancing the development of Cold Comfort. You can read the recent patch notes here, or watch the video down below.

Among the many new features, the one we have been most excited about is the transition from 2v2 to 5v5. As Cold Comfort has been designed from the ground up with 5v5 in mind, it is a huge milestone for us to finally reach this goal.

On that note, we couldn't be more excited to have our next live event with streamer Booster Stuff and his crew! The stream will take place on Wednesday, January 6th, 2021. so stop by and check it out and let us know what you think.

PATCH NOTES 0.0.4

Welcome to our fourth patch notes post! Our goal is to effectively relay the updated information to the community. As we are currently in the pre-alpha development stage, the majority of you will not have access to the present built, but, we are collaborating with a select group of streamers and playtesters who are helping us to stress test on a semi-regular basis. 

These patch notes serve two purposes. Firstly, as an archival element, to easily go back and see which issues were addressed, and when. Secondly, to show the community that we are busy working on Cold Comfort, trying to make it a great experience for you.

Oh wait, there’s a third point, as this is new territory for us, especially in this early stage of development, your opinion regarding the format and information on how these updates are conveyed is important. As always, feel free to hop onto our discord community channel and let us know what you think!
