The Hive 0.15 Released Upcoming features
Hello everyone, today we are releasing update 0.15 for The Hive Our plan for this update was to increase performance and continue to integrate The Hive to new Unity 5 engine. We also worked hard to fix bugs caused by change of engine, for example how new physics work. We also wanted to talk about upcoming features we have planned for The Hive and community feedback.
Our plan has been to introduce Difficulty modes for those that have already completed The Hive and seek more challenge. Survival Difficulty that let's you keep all the units you have from one level to next and in the same time making the game world more dangerous. Each difficulty would have it's own save file that you choose from mainmenu
