Just some fair warning, that's all?
I've been neglecting this thread; nothing personal, just really busy.
[B]First Thing [/B]- We updated the site, check it out:

[B]Second Thing[/B] - Here's a link to get you up to speed on our development so far:

[B]Third Thing[/B] - We started a discord chat about a month ago, so if you ever have any questions or want to chill with us, go here:

[B]Last Thing[/B] - If for some reason you're not on our forums or Discord, I'd recommend checking out this community thread:

Community members are skimming the discord and compiling the images we posted into this handy little thread. it contains [b]raw[/b] development images, so things you see in there may or may not be subject to change. But it's definitely the best way to see what we're working on.
thanks bye
Greetings, beautiful people. it's been a while.
Thought I'd drop by and let you know our store page made its debut, and early access will be available on April 8th.
check it out:

Also, apparently music and a logo for a completely new game world has been revealed.

I still haven't got a clue as to what it will be exactly.

Can't wait to see some more players! The server list has been a bit empty..

once the game loop is fully established with the lobby, it'll help retain players and give them more of a reason to play. We JUST hooked up Steam inventory in the latest weekly build, which means soon money will actually have value as well.
What's the lineup of game worlds for early access?
Ball Race, Minigolf, and Virus are confirmed, and we have a fourth game world on the way as well
Out of curiosity, where will the backers be listed in the lobby? Or if it's already in, where is it?

Still deciding on the location.
Really love all the work you guys are putting into making this great, since I wasn't able to back the kickstarter this will definitely be a first day purchase for me when it's released in April!
My wallet is ready! I can't wait for this.

I need this inside of me
even if it's not compelte
I'm really hyped for this game. Wish I had helped fundraise way back when it was open. Everything about this seems real cool and has major potential.
[DEL]On the side note, I hope no one minds me throwing a question regarding dedicated servers and will it be possible for users to make their own dedicated servers?[/DEL]
Figured it out. ;)
~Bumpity bump bump~
Though I'd let the guys with early access know that you are now able to set up dedicated servers, which is what I'm currently doing.
Also, so close to release date, April 9!
So this releases in about 18 hours, figured this should get bumped. I've looked around for a price with no luck. Anyone know yet?

That seems like a really good price. I don't normally buy games so soon after release, but it's quite tempting as GMOD tower was great. In terms of content, is there currently any more/less than GMOD tower had, or is it pretty much just a straight remake?
Does your appartement is the same in each servers or you have to make a different one every time you go on a new server ?

The condo/apartment: [QUOTE="http://forums.pixeltailgames.com/t/read-this-before-posting-a-question-tower-unite-frequently-asked-questions/38"] "is completely separate from ranked and unranked servers and will be part of your Steam account no matter what Lobby you join." [/QUOTE]
Better explaination:
[QUOTE="http://forums.pixeltailgames.com/t/networking/4596"]Condos are hosted by the Condo Host. This server has ties back to the Lobby Server that it was created from (IE where the door connects to) (Client to Server, NOT P2P)[/QUOTE]

The closed alpha currently only has 3 minigames and i've found they are quite buggy (They're not major bugs, which will probably be fixed in the release update they said would be comming out). iirc they are planning to make it a straight remake, then building on top of that.

I really hope it turns out better than GMOD tower in that way, then. I remember years ago they had upcoming gamemode previews in the lobby but nothing ever came of most of them.
What's it like in terms of things like the amount of suite items and player customization? Decorating was my favourite thing to do in GMOD tower. I hope this allows creativity beyond placing items in different locations, like how GMOD tower had building pieces to make extra walls and such.

Customizing your condo and character is better than ever before, since now you can actually color most of your furniture, CONDO WALLS, and your player model.
Also they've got some great new items such as a working projector and curved TV for YouTube videos. Lots of neat furniture items and hats as well.
Player models, aside from the Milk Carton, have various outfits to choose from.
Also, there are four game worlds at the moment, not three.
Minigolf, Virus, Ball Race, and Planet Panic.
Planet Panic is completely new and wasn't even planned for Garry's Mod Tower.
It's a Team vs. Team game where you collect balls and drop them off in your team's receptacle. You can steal from the other team's receptacle.

Also the Steam Depot is FUCKED, so people are missing the executable.
The game's supposed to be around 12 GB and people are only getting 176 MB or something along those numbers.
This is such a shame, but they are working as fast as they can to rectify the issue.
I'm unable to connect to any servers, I can confirm it's not a firewall issue or anything like that.
It is fixed now, apparently!
The download, I mean.
Jesus christ the framerate is horrible. It's all over the place.
Game keeps freezing as well.
