- Important Announcement & Game Update - 30 May 2024
Dear Gamers, We are writing to inform you of an important change in our game rules that will take effect starting June 10, 2024. In our continuous effort to maintain fairness and integrity in our gaming community, we have decided to revise our stance on combos. After careful consideration and extensive discussions, we have concluded that combos will now be classified as farm. This decision was not made lightly. We understand that many of you enjoy creating combos and have incorporated them into your gameplay loop. However, we believe that this change is necessary to ensure a balanced and fair gaming environment for all players. Therefore, starting from June 10, 2024, making combos will be banned. Any participation in combos after this date will be considered a violation of our game rules and may result in penalties such as temporary or permanent bans. We understand that this change may…

- First impressions of closed beta testing! - 27 March 2024
Team TDP4 shares gratitude for closed beta support, with 120 subscribers currently testing levels 21-30. Weekly level raises aid testing, to test all categories. Changes, such a the 'pay to win' nerf are generally well-received. EXP and coin multipliers after the first godlike are decreased, as we'd like to encourage players to play in regular rooms and tournaments instead. Six maps (Hangar, Corridor 1 & 2, Canyon, Arena and Slaughterhouse) are available but still buggy. Additionally, chat/kill feed issue were raised and are being addressed. A new volunteer should reduce account creation waiting time going forward. Support us on Patreon/Boosty, your help is much appreciated!
