New version is out! Well, it's submitted to the store -should be out soon. No new exciting features in this version, but many fewer annoyances, which is nice. Fixed that dropping out bug! Should auto download in the next few days, or update it manually now. Sorted!

[FlagWars @FlagWarsTheGame]

Got it! Finally sorted out a solution to the players dropping out bug. I had to redo a fair bit of the networking stuff, and add in UNET's host migration features, but it seems to be working! A few more days for testing and that, and an update should be out. Wooo!

Maybe adding in some kind of tournament mode at 5000 will give you something to do up there? What do you reckon?

(And don't worry if you can't catch up to Goffaande, Al3x, I'll give you a shout out anyway. ;) )

[FlagWars @FlagWarsTheGame]

So a couple of people have passed Score 5000! One crazy dude kept going and is at 7163 now (onya Goffaande!). I didn't really expect anybody to make it that far so quickly, so there's basically nothing up there at the moment. I'm a bit caught off guard, ay!

FlagWars has hit rank #2 out of all strategy games on the App Store in Malawi!

Today I also learned that the number of downloads you need to actually hit rank #2 in Malawi is actually only two.

Overall, FlagWars has 4.7 out of 5 stars. But in Sweden, it has 1 out of 5. I'm not sure what we did to the one Swede who took the time to rate the game, but min vän, if you're out there... I'm sorry. <3

[FlagWars @FlagWarsTheGame]

Defs a compliment! I don't think it's a bot - though if somebody actually build one for FlagWars that would be even more flattering, hahaha.

[FlagWars @FlagWarsTheGame]

The game lets you play up to level 5000, which was supposed to be enough for players to play for months and months, and be nigh impossible to reach. Some dude in England has hit 4800 in two days!! :O

I have seriously underestimated how much time some people would put into FlagWars. Pic unrelated.

[FlagWars @FlagWarsTheGame]

Working on a fix for the players dropping out bug. That's a big one that's been a massive pain for everybody - hold tight, should be published within a week. (Unless I hit some major snags on the way...)

[FlagWars @FlagWarsTheGame]

There's just so much to learn, it's overwhelming man.

[FlagWars @FlagWarsTheGame]

God I hate software engineering.

[FlagWars @FlagWarsTheGame]

The worst one is that people are somewhat incentivised to drop out of online matches when they start to lose. (Not actually a bug, just poor planning by me). Should have a fix for that - and a bunch of other smaller ones - in a point update coming out in around a week from now.

[FlagWars @FlagWarsTheGame]

For the first time, FlagWars has a few thousand players around the world - mainly in the UK and Turkey, of all places. So I've been in overdrive trying to fix the bugs people are sending me! Keep them coming if you spot anything!

Hey mates, long time no see. The original plan for this account was to post memes and things and try to get attention for FlagWars - but that was about as successful Napoleon in Russia. I reckon we'll turn this into more of a dev blog now, won't that be fun (haha).

The game with the cars playing football. Yeah. #footballcars #rocketleague #epicsave
