This weeks blog post is going to be short and sweet because we’re busy preparing Sky noon for our upcoming closed beta weekend! It will start on [b]Thursday 4/19 at 12pm PDT[/b] and finish on [b]Monday 4/23 at 12pm PDT.[/b] Make sure that you are signed up in our Discord channel and have followed the beta instructions for a chance to get a key! As it is a beta you may experience the occasional bug or glitch, but by playing you are helping us to find these issues so that we may fix them before our early access release. You can give us direct feedback in the #feedback channel of our discord as well as documenting any bugs and crashes in the #report-an-issues channel. This is our first time opening up our game to so many new players and we’re expecting some small issues to crop up, however well be on hand to fix-em-up right quick! [h1]But what is in the Closed beta?[/h1] We’re proud to be showing off for the first time: [b]Cart mode[/b] (our version of payload) In the Cart mode two teams of 4 players will attempt to score by shooting the TNT filled minecart into the other team’s base. Players can shoot track changers to redirect the cart, moving it closer to the enemy base or mess with the other team by directing it away. Cart is played on specialised maps that stand apart our other maps. Closed beta with feature the map called Bridge. While it is the simplest of our cart maps there is plenty of skill and strategy required to win. Players will also be able to play Free for All in two maps: Homestead and Towers, previously shown at Pax East. Games can get pretty hectic when you have no one else to watch your back. Cinematic picture to make you like our maps [img]https://steamcdn-a.akamaihd.net/steamcommunity/public/images/clans/27736937/15e3625adfb2c9e2eeba9752948541d826f8af9e.gif[/img] Haven’t signed up for the beta yet?
