Alpha 0.20

Saturday, March 31st, 2012

KFY Alpha 0.20 is now avaliable for download.

This release comes a bit earlier than planned as I wanted to get a fix for a serious bug out there as soon as possible.

There are some functionality in this release that is accessible if you have bought the full version of the game, but as it is not currently possible to buy the game these things will not be avaliable to the public until we have a payment system in place (should be done very soon!)

Some of what is new in this release:

  • New game mode: Team Deathmatch (Full Version only)
  • Support for huge maps (up to 998001 tiles!) (Full Version only)
  • Player limit raised to 16 (Full Version only)
  • Some weapons now show a different (non-zero) animation frame when out of ammo.
  • The player hitbox for map interaction is now thinner in order to get through narrow passages easier.
  • Various bug fixes.

For a more complete list of what has changed in this release, refer to Changelog.txt. (also viewable from the About screen in game)

Alpha 0.19

Friday, March 23rd, 2012

KFY Alpha 0.19 is now avaliable for download.

Some of what is new in this release:

  • Login functionality.
  • Lots of map related changes.
  • Longer usernames and win messages.
  • Two new music tracks and a couple of new maps.
  • Much more.

For a more complete list of what has changed in this release, refer to Changelog.txt. (also viewable from the About screen in game)

I had originally planned to post a pretty lengthy update about the state of things and what we have planned for the near future but I’m too worn out right now from getting 0.19 ready so I’ll do it tomorrow (AKA later today) instead. :)

Alpha 0.19 – Sneak peak!

Monday, March 19th, 2012

A sneak peak of the new background layers and gradient backgrounds that will be avaliable in KFY Alpha 0.19 which should be done very soon. The images used for the background layers will be customizable on the server and sent to players on connect/map change (unless they already have the correct file), just as with tilesets. Music track is by Pär Carlsson and will also be included in Alpha 0.19.
