Hey Guys,

First of all, thank you for your support!
I very happy that Rival Rebels Game is in a “stable” Closed Alpha and you guys can finally play it and test it out!
Now that all the anxiety and stress related to the Alpha release are gone I need to concentrate on tackling other important aspects:
On this thread I’m planning to keep you guys informed of my progress developing those ‘under the hood’ features.

At the moment I’m working on a new game login, and chat system, that will be fast and very Scalable (to go MMO). That is the first step, before I deploy a much better network structure, that should make the multiplayer game smoother and more reliable.

And again, big thanks for you amazing support!

Ok, I deployed the new game login on Alpha 10 and fixed lots of bugs to make it stable. Now, logging in and switching scenes is quick and reliable. (I still need to correct the skyclone bug, though)
Now I’m working on the new chat system, which will replace the current one that is buggy and slow.
After the new chat is deployed, I will be ready to implement the new network architecture. Doing that should correct the stuttering and let us handle many more connections.

So thats the plan, thank you for your support!

The New Dragon is now part of Rival Rebels exclusive building systems. I’m still improving the aiming, and adding a couple more features to this coming alpha build 16. It’s already extremely vicious, and very destructive!

I’m gonna use this to get revenge on those Deltoids when it comes out. Teach ’em not to mess with my builds!

[Rodol マ 1858Reputation⎔ 0CreditsExpanse BureauAdvanced Denizen3055 posts]

Hello,

Just to keep you up to date with the RR game developing.

1. The Robo Turrets and Deltoids are working better and are more playable now. More tweaking and further development is still needed.
2. As I announced in the vid, the Rival Rebels Book is almost done. The story is very good and I’m done with the formatting. But I’m still going through lots of corrections, grammar, typos and consistency.
3. I’m developing the new site, that will allow us to merge all the game functionality. Player inventory, credits, ranks, faction and guild membership etc. The new site will be written in C# (programming language) like the game. I will try to keep the style and data of our current site.

Here is the Robo Turrets vid. Thanks to Bee, Max, and Sour for their help.

Hey Rodol, if you want, I can help scout the book for errors and stuff as I’m a huge grammar nut >w>

Sounds great, thanks! It’s a big big commitment, though. The novel is around 64k words.

By the way, the reason I haven’t redeemed my copy of the game is that i use linux. I’m not trying to get rodol to rush though the game development,  please don’t take it that way.

 

Two second after posting edit: Is this the right forum topic for this?

LÖÖPS

[Rodol マ 1858Reputation⎔ 0CreditsExpanse BureauAdvanced Denizen3055 posts]

I’m setting up a 4th computer at my desk right now to run Ubuntu. I already have Mac, Win, and Debian for the databases. Today, Unity finally added the Linux support I was waiting for, so Rival Rebels for Linux is on its way. :)
