What happened? (Transparent Post)
Hello All, So to start off we have a lot of explaining to do, we started this game back in the start of 2017 as this being our very first game. While making this game we set goals and had unrealistic dreams that we obviously did not achieve. Everyday we had put or hard work into this game and tested everything we could before release, when the game released there was obviously some bugs which we had fixed up but overall we had a networking issue which would have required us to switch over networking solutions or pay a ton of money of which we did not have. The game started off with major success due to Forsen and another french streamer playing without us even asking. Overall we were not ready and we could not see that and it caused us to lose hope the for the game and had no more motivation developing it.

So to start off on the first update, I will be changing over networking to make the multiplayer playable for longer than 10-15 mins. UI Changes Second, I would like to clean up the ui's. This will not be there final form all though I want something a bit cleaner and working menus such as our pause menu. Content and User Friendly Thirdly, which I believe is the most important is the content of the game and the user friendly side. When I am working on this, you will see big changes such as Voice Chat, more friendly UI, better content for maps (extending it), and a few new maps. Single Player Lastly, I would like to make this game open for single player. Not to sure on how I will do this, but I do know if I...Read full article on Community Announcements (The Escape)AnnouncementsOfficial
