Drift Shell now has online PVP with a quick match queue!

Now Drift Shell multiplayer can be played anywhere anytime online so long as you have a steam account.

I've deployed one match making server that will take care of pairing players for matches in the alpha demo. 

Just use the quick match button in the online lobby to get in a queue for a random online match.

Private hosted match lobbies are available. Just follow the instructions on the game's itchio page to host and join private lobbies.

I will continue to update the public online demo as more polishes are made to the game.

A Patreon will soon be launched that will provide early access builds that will have more content to play with than the public online demo.

- more weapons

- more mech parts

- more maps

- etc...

I will be adding reverse joint legs to the mech customization soon. It will only be available to play with in the early access version of the game demo. 

Online play with the early access build will only pair you up with players that are on the current early access build.

I will also update the public alpha game demo on itch.io to only pair players up with that have the same patch version of Drift Shell.

The matchmaking queue server will go down for maintenance temporarily to introduce these changes later.

For now the server will stay live for those that want to try out the online features of the public online alpha demo.
