Feature Test Branch - Released! Version 1.2.1.0

Date: Sun, 20 Oct 2024
The Concourse Game Banner
Genre: Action, Indie, Racing, Sports
Developer: A & B Game Studios, LLC
Release Date: Tue, 31 May 2016
This branch has some very bold additions including but not limited to the beginning of character customization! Granted... you won't be able to customize anything yet. It's us testing out a new system, you'll see a new player model and the direction we're heading in.

Also included in this version are 40+ modifiers and a new modifier selection system! We've decided to make it so you can choose from 3 randomly selected modifiers at a time! Meaning OF the 40+ modifiers available you'll have the hard choice of playing the hand you're dealt. This has changed the whole dynamic of the game for the best in our opinion!

  • Added Remove Walls Modifier
  • Addressed glitch where a streamer fell through the walls once ( before us adding this deliberate remove walls modifier)
  • Added Melee Modifier - Speed up tile drop rate

Note: Flabbergast is ranked as devastating, meaning that the attacker will also have an attack applied to them)

As you saw, it's a big update and there are bound to be errors / glitches. As always if you find any bugs let us know here in the steam community or by emailing: theconcoursegame@gmail.com Also, as I mentioned in a previous announcement, our upgrade to Unreal Engine version 4.12 has messed up the bots. We're going to be working on that for our next update. Thanks for your understanding, patience and continued support! ːsteamhappyː

Cheers!
