There will be more data and proper atribution here (original author, steam link, original post date, etc) real soon, I promise. This is just like a technical test to see if they're coming in ok at all.
Zombie Party » *Huge Online Update 10.1*
Hey guys!
I’ve got a bunch of big news!
First off, I spent a few weeks entirely reworking the networking code and the online play is nearly perfect now! No more lag, graphical glitches, and networking crashes! I need your help this week to test out the online and find bugs. Let me know anything you find!
Second, after nearly a year in Early Access, Zombie Party will be leaving Early Access next Friday (June 10th)!!!! As this is an exciting time, it does not mean that develepment for Zombie Party will stop. The game is at a good size with hours of content, and there’s still a bunch of stuff im excited to add to the game! This will mainly allow me to move forward with bringing ZP to consoles!
I need help this week finding all the bugs! Ill be releasing frequent updates and working with you guys to get things compeletely stabalized. Thanks for your patience!
