Update June 2020
Hi everyone,

We are back with an update for the Steam Game Festival. During this event, we will do 4 game sessions and a developer Q&A on Twitch. The first session will be today. If you have any questions, join us on Discord, and ask them in the channel #game-festival, we'll answer them during our Q&A.

For more information on the game sessions click here, and here for the developer Q&A.

PERKS


We updated the perks selection menu. From now on, the setup of your robot is done in 3 steps:
  • Select your size (light, standard, heavy). The bigger the robot, the slower it will be but the more life it will have.


  • Select your perk. Now, the choice of perks depends on the size of the robot chosen. There are 3 perks available per size.


  • Select your inventory. Now, by default, the players spawn with the basic inventory of the classic modes such as deathmatch (it means that the players will have the sword, the plasma, and the SMG in their inventory). Then, you are free to choose other weapons, additional health points, or more or less respawn time. This setup impacts on your stamina. The more weapons and/or health points you have, the slower you will be. It's your call!


Take care to select the robot size you want for the round because although you can change your perk during a round, you won't be able to change your size. It will be available before the start of the next round (the menu is automatically loaded after the scoreboard is displayed).
There are some adjustments/modifications made to the perks. However, we'll let you discover by yourself.

Finally, regarding the Capture the Flag mode, some adjustments were made:
  • When a player takes the flag, his perk is deactivated, his life is fully regenerated, and he's moving more slowly.
  • Weapons no longer reload automatically over time. You must now go through a supply point to reload your inventory.
  • And to finish, health pickups are now available on CTF maps.


MAPS


  • UPDATE: DM-MARS


Complete redesign of the map: The layout is nearly identical to the previous version, but the design is a new environment.

WEAPONS


  • PLASMA


Modification of the secondary fire. From now on, when you will hold the secondary fire button (right mouse button), the plasma loads and fire when you release the button. The projectile will be more or less big depending on the loading time (max duration: 3 seconds). This plasma ball explodes in several projectiles after a few seconds (the bigger the plasma ball is, the faster it will burst).

  • FLASHRIFLE


Update of the secondary fire. From now on, when you hold the secondary fire button (right mouse button), the flash rifle loads and fire when you release the button. The energy ball will move more or less quickly depending on the loading time. The less you load, the faster the energy ball will move.

HUD


The HUD has undergone some corrections to improve its readability.
  • The perk loading icon was moved up and sized bigger.
  • The speedometer is no longer at the center of your screen, but just above the inventory.
  • For the timer, its background color and the text color were changed.
  • The perk icons have been redrawn for better readability.




PICKUPS


The pickups still have the same design, but the material is new to highlight them.

DEMO AVAILABLE!
Hello everyone!

We migrated the Alpha 2.X to a DEMO VERSION.

For those who have the game in their library, do not worry if you have an expired access message (see the message below).


You just need to go to the store page and then click on "Download Master Arena (Alpha) Demo". If your game is already installed, you will receive a small update and that's it!




The advantage of having the demo visible in the steam store is that anyone can download it without asking for a key.

Have fun!
