Closed Development Status Report #1

Over the past week of Closed Development, our team has been working on the basic battle server. Essentially, this server saves states of each battle, which will allow us to create more complex card types, build a single-player experience, and eventually generate data, which we can use to populate leaderboards.

Jetono, our Lead Developer reports, "Spore and I are updating the way the game handles battle challenges. In the future, you will be able to receive several and then select the one you prefer."

Additionally, Spore is working on updating the trade process to match the new challenge process.

Click "Read more" to find out exactly how this will benefit you.

These new processes should resolve some of the current issues with three-way battles being initiated when a player challenges more than one opponent, and both accept. Furthermore, it should address players getting marked as in battle when they get challenged, and the challenger leaves the room before they can accept or decline.

Check back next weekend for the next Closed Development Status Report! If you have any questions, please leave them below in the form of a comment, and we'll write back.
