| Crab Game Cosmetics Update | 2021-11-29 | Crab Game Cosmetics Update 2 ayo, So I said in the last update I would be working on cosmetics, since a lot of people requested it. It was a lot more time consuming to make than I thought, but I've finished up 50+ items with Steam Inventory support, and everything else. Hope you like it! Also a question for everyone. Currently you cannot buy crates, is this something you wanna see changed? Why? Why not? Are there any other changes in general you'd like to see? Thanks for the feedback! Earning Cosmetics Crates are completely free to open. When a game finished, there is a chance to receive a crate drop. Being toxic / reported / banned / kicked |
| Crab Game Content Update 2 | 2021-11-16 | Crab Game Content Update 2 ayo, Second content update. This is also a pretty small one, since I spent a lot of time dealing with server flooding issues, but that has all been resolved now. I wanted to get started on adding some customization and cosmetics, but didn't have time due to the server issues. Planning on getting started on that right after this update goes up though. Game Maps and Modes Selection when making server To see what maps and modes a server has, just hover over the "Default" / "Modified" icon in the server list Various balancing Gamemodes Practice / Free play Standoff - pew pew Death From Above - Avoid falling blocks Block |
| Crab Game Content Update 1 | 2021-11-07 | Crab Game Content Update 1 yo, First content update. This is a pretty small one, since I spent most of this week fixing bugs and issues, and barely had time for anything else. A lot of you are requesting customization, so I will be working on that next, as well as more maps and gamemodes. Networking Your IP can NOT be leaked anymore. Switched from old Steam Networking to new Steam Networking Your IP is masked, packets are now relayed through Steam servers, meaning your IP is safe. There might be some issues due to this. I had to completely swap out the old networking, but I'll work on making it run smoother! Gamemodes Race - Make it to the go |
| Crab Game Launch Update | 2021-10-30 | Crab Game Launch and Updates Hey everyone, Hope you're all chillin. Thanks for a great launch, I had a lot of fun seeing the crazy lobbies. Thanks for all the bug reports and issues found, I've updated the game a couple times, and a bunch of things have been fixed (see below). One of the biggest changes is that server should be better able to handle a lot of people now. I've currently set the cap to 40 players, but if it plays well without lag, we can slowly increase it to see how well it holds up. Patch notes Optimized networking and bandwitdth usage, servers should hopefully hold up better now You can now turn off chat in Game Settings Lobb |
