It's really good to hear there still ongoing development we've been waiting for this, I'm getting hyped.
wow multiplayer .. im wondering if it would be like we could send creeps while building .. this should be pvp!
@tek the first multiplayer game mode will be a coop mode with (hopefully) up to 4 players at once. PvP is not on the immediate roadmap, but there's a good chance to add more multiplayer game modes to the game over time!
@Aho unfortunately not. What I'm doing right now is porting the game 1:1 from ActionScript to Java, while extracting all multiplayer-relevant logic into a separate module (deterministic simulation for multiplayer). So the first release you ideally won't even notice that the whole game was rewritten.. But shortly after that I will finally be able to add multiplayer support. I'm planning to add more features over time to the game from then on, and of course if there's a demand it's possible to add a google translate function. The technical challenge for that is that currently all text is rendered as bitmap fonts, which are a very bad fit for Chinese letters.
Awesome to see you are still chugging along Andy, I was active on my old account Leotardis and hopefully the forums get as active as they were in the past.
