• October Score Attack and Leaderboard issue - 21 October 2021

  The month of October has brought in some spooky ghosts to haunt the Cakedom! It has come to our attention that games compiled with certain versions of Unity are unable to perform web requests after October 1, 2021. This is currently breaking Defend the Cake’s Leaderboards and Score Attack mode. We will work to update Defend the Cake to a more recent version of Unity, and get a new build out as soon as possible. Until then, you can work around this issue by adjusting the date on your OS to any time before October 1, 2021. We sincerely apologize for the inconvenience, and will work to get this fixed as soon as possible.
