- Additional security question, the game is automatically checked for originality at startup. (If the check fails, the game is locked)
- The game is now based on Unreal Engine 5
- There are many more features, like fishing and animal breeding, developed by the Basic developers. I made changes to the maps and the main menu and made some adjustments.
I continue to be very surprised at how the game has changed for the better (reviews). I hope you guys are doing well and having fun playing. There are some changes planned in the coming weeks. I have been looking over a longer period of time how the game develops accordingly, whether the users like it or not. Because in the beginning, it often didn't seem like the user liked it. ( There are currently 237,350 users who have received the game for free! )
This is just a brief information, more information will be released with the next update.
The following changes are currently planned:.
- There will be a name change, from "KeepUp Pirates - RPG" to "Pirates". ( This is planned to make it easier for users to remember the name of the game! )
- Also, the game will receive Achievements. ( Achievements are a must! )
- Wishes that some users have already deposited will now be reviewed. ( For example the possibility of a password, Achievements or fishing! )
- The existing creative mode will be revised again and get another map. ( This mode contains everything you need to do everything you want! )
- All maps will be reworked once again.
- The game in general will be expanded and improved.
- The game will be upgraded from UE4 to UE5.
The upcoming changes will serve to improve the gaming experience.
- The anticipated changes are scheduled for November 1, 2022.
Legal:
Despite all this, I must once again point out the legal information for users. Because unfortunately there are still misunderstandings that I often read in the reviews, although I try very hard to deposit a lot of information about the game.
There is information in the game description and in the EULA. These inform the user that the game is NOT a complete in-house development by Witte's Studio. Accordingly, other indie developers may also have appropriate licenses.
Any changes, enhancements or additions to KeepUp Pirates - RPG (Pirates) will be made by Witte's Studio.
I am very amazed at how the game has changed for the better in such a short time. I have taken note of your comments and questions and would like to answer them here.
But first, let me tell you something about how many users the free game has reached by now. The game KeepUp Pirates - RPG had reached almost 120,000 users in a short time after its release on December 11, 2021. Now we are at over 180,000+ users who own, play or have played this game. I am very surprised that there are so many and more every day.
Some users left hints in the reviews, which I took note of, as mentioned above. It was about these issues, the enlargement of the map and the desire for the possibility to integrate a password query.
I'll be completely honest, the way the game is now, that seems to go over very well with the players. Now if I change something about the map, like making it bigger, whether that might not have the opposite effect.
My suggestion would be to expand the multiplayer map with more small islands. Not too big, but enough to play and have fun. I would include the expansion of the password prompt when implementing the map. Please keep in mind that this is a free game and my paid offerings always take precedence.
Feel free to share your ideas, suggestions here.
I hope you continue to enjoy it and have a good time.
