yea, the timeout is too long (it will dissapear eventually), I will make it much shorter, but now that you mentioned, I will probably add cancel button there as well


Will there be a forum for this game, or will we use this thread until it takes off and has a larger player base?
Also, can you add a global chat lobby?
Also, can you make it so that you can choose from using the asdf keys, arrow keys, and mouse control?
Also, why are my stats inaccurate? I've played one match, not thousands.

If the game gets huge, we could have clans.
Meet me (GivinUDaHimelik, Himelik, OneNOnlyHimelik, NoSoliciting) in-game to ask about joining my clan the Killer Mantids. We're always looking for skilled, active players.

Let's go ahead and make one now.

We need 2 clans to start it off though. That way it isn't just one group fighting itself.

Others will join to form another clan, we must unite as brothers. Come on man, you took my KM virginity, don't leave me hanging.

Guess I'll join for now. The temptation to form my own may overtake me sometime though.

There probably won't be official forum for the game, this topic is there just to get first feedback and bug reports. I can create new subsection if it gets crowded or somebody else can host forum somewhere, it's still too soon for stuff like this :) Gotta finish it first.
The chat is not possible because there is no server.
I will add alternative control schemes but I am not sure about mouse, we will see
Stats are not finished yet, those are just placeholder texts.

Clans won't be in the game directly (not initially, it will remain as simple in first versions as possible), but I designed it in such way that it should be easy to create clans externally and organize matches and get results of those matches and stats from our servers (so you don't have to type it manually).

I have no idea where the game will go once it's out, it is not entirely my game. I made it for somebody else but we are working closely together on it so who knows. Anyway, keep ideas coming, they are good :)

Add an offline practice field. No AI players, but some stationary and moving obstacles to practice dribbling around.

As I was the first to respond, I'll edit that post to contain all suggestions and bugs, respectively.
