Dedicated server!

Hi everyone!

GridCars, our game, is a multiplayer game. We received lots of messages saying that people can’t play right now, because they have no one around to try it with.*

Well, no more excuses!

GridCars

We have a dedicated server up and running.**

Join it by entering germanunkol.de as the IP address.

We will be online from 8:30 pm (now) until around 10 pm, UTC + 1 ***

The server will be left open afterwards, so go and join it!

* I sincerely hope that this means your friends all just don’t have the time right now, or you don’t want to bother them with a game you know was made in 72 hours and is thus probably very unpolished – and not that all your game-programming has left you with no friends!

**To achieve this, we have done more work post-jam. We admit it. Basically, we stripped the game from graphics to be able to run it headless as a server. And we fixed a bug, which wasn’t really in the game but the underlying network engine. We admit that too. If you feel like that’s cheating – go play the original version! We won’t hurt you, but you’ll need to find a friend to try it with, and they seem to be rare these days. :)

*** That should be 2:30 pm until 4 pm ET
