Hyperfight
Rollback netcode officially in the works!
It's been almost one year since the last HYPERFIGHT update, and I'm back with some good news: rollback netcode is officially in the works!
The game is being fully rewritten in Unity to serve as a better foundation for rollback, while also letting me more easily utilize third-party libraries and potentially port to consoles in the future. This does mean that it will be a while before the first playable beta, so please be patient.
Will there be new content? ...Potentially. Everything from v3.1 is going to be ported over exactly as it is at first, and from there I'll be deciding what needs to be changed or what should be added.
I guess you can't trust me anymore when I say "last update", lol. If you're interested in more frequent posts you can follow me on Twitter.
