1.66(b)

1.66b is here!

Changelog:

* Buffed flashbangs, rockets, turrets
* Made the Spy ID also change your name!
* A new item, the napalm bottle
* Bugfixing, lots of small stuff
* Spruces!


Also the turrets are now broken in a way: they target and kill also teammates! Yay.

1.65!

Version 1.65 is here! Changelog:

* Destroyable vehicles removed for the sake of bugs.
* Damage should be fully or at least mostly clientside now, which should fix some bugs.
* The game now remembers your last-entered nickname.
* You can change the server and port in the ‘server.txt’, but the hosting app isn’t ready yet!
* Boosted both turrets and speed chips.
* You can now only see games that use the same version as you in the lobby. This should make it harder to break the games of other people by barging in with an outdated version!
* A new item, the Spy ID! I really like the concept, hopefully you will as well.

I’ll try to get some neat new gifs here to brighten up the monotony. Eventually.

v. 1.64b

So here it is again, your faily dose of Masjin! 1.64b adds stuff like:

* Vehicles can be destroyed now! This is probably hilariously buggy at the moment, so please report all weird things as usual. Smiley
* Fixed a huge bug in item management. Basically all the vehicles/items that the round started with were reset for each player joining, which resulted in stupid bugs.
* Other small bugs are now fixed, again again
* Cybermasons can now also dig ore! This is crucial since the diggers may disappear as the game goes on.
* Turrets are better now. They still need more health, it seems.

Here we go again!

1.62

woo

1.61

Hehey, it’s here. Changelog:

* In-game control changing!
* Chatlogs and ability to save them
* New item, a box of five rockets!
* Bugfixes as always
* I’m testing a short unfinished music provided by shojin in this version. Please do give feedback! It’s very short currently, though.
* Nicer starting menus
* You can now safely drop items with down + throw
* I changed the shape of the base to accommodate UFOs and mech suits better
* You can now make and join private games. Type the name of the game to the host bar and press “join/create private”!

Version 1.6c

GET IT NOW

Additions/fixes/changes:
* Added the mech suit!
* Added gravity grenades!
* Added some decoration to the menus (not enough yet!)
* Made the game selection list not blink and remove your selection
* Made the UFO-like vehicle buyable
* Fixed more bugs in the ore
* Fixed a ton of bugs caused by the updates 1.6 and 1.6b
* Added team chat channel. Type ‘/t’ in front of your line to make it team-only.

Masjin and Game Applet

My posts have been quite low on content lately, but maybe we’ll have more meat here now. So!

I’ve updated Masjin, the newest version is now 1.58 1.59! I suggest updating, since several things have been fixed & added there, including:

  • Changeable controls
  • A little info text for beginners
  • Replaced control point
  • Fixed a bug related to ore where every round there was only a tiny bit of it
  • Fixed another bug with the game running even slower than usual
  • A new item, the medikit
  • Polish
  • I had to remove the Engineer class since it didn’t have any benefits. Hopefully it’ll be put back later on. I’ll make another update soon with hopefully even a new item!
    GET IT! GEEET IIITT!

    And for the game applet on the main site, I’ve noted people complaining that it’s way too confusing to use. I guess I’ll need to redesign it soon; I added Masjin today but I guess new games should be more easily distinguishable from the old. Looking to it.

    OH NO

    IT’S APRIL’S FOOLS AND MY POST IS NOT HUMOROUS
