Catastrophe X Released

After a year of private development, I posted Catastrophe X on reddit yesterday. This made for a very chaotic day, with me trying to play against each of the hundreds of visitors who signed on. The good news is that the game seems to work for the most part. Thank you to everybody who gave it a try and offered their feedback.

Please remember, if something goes wrong when you are playing, you can usually fix the problem by reloading the page. Your battles will not be affected by reloading.

Going forward, I will use this blog to publish updates and plans for Catastrophe X. Don't hesitate to drop me a line in the comments!

My current priorities are:
  • Figure out why the server occasionally stops responding to requests (no kidding).
  • Fix the bug that sometimes prevents units from showing on the minimap (reloading fixes this).
  • Create a proper intro screen and tutorial. There is (rightfully) a lot of confusion about how to play.
I have also created a Catastrophe X subreddit for additional discussion. Hope to see you there!
