New Beta Branch
Hey there, Back in December I released the 0.6.5.0 patch which introduced the Nightmare ability and Tic & Tac rework. Unfortunately, this patch also introduced a bug which caused the game to crash and I was unable to quickly fix this major bug. Because of this bug I ended up reverting the game back to the previous build. Now, as Chess Survivors has grown it has become more challenging for me to fully regression test the various systems since Im a solo indie developer. Moving forward I will be utilizing Steams beta branches to push new changes to. Im hoping some of you will opt into playing the new branch and report any major bugs to me via the Chess Survivors Discord or the bug report forum. Thank you for your support and patience as I continue the early access development of Chess Survivors. Over the holidays I was able to get some much needed rest and am feeling recharged and ready to dive back into Chess Survivors. My next goal will be to add in a few new characters and additional Gambit challenge mode levels. Cheers, Aarimous
1. Right click on Chess Survivors in your Steam library 2. Select Properties from the popup
3. Navigate to the Beta tab
4. Select the beta branch you want to play
Along with all the changes from 0.6.5.0, I have also included some accessibility settings, a rework of the settings screen, performance fixes, and bug fixes. I will also be removing the Enemy Killed and Elite Enemy Killed achievements so those will no long work on 0.6.5.1.
