It has been a while since we last published a blog post, and for good reason! The last few weeks we have been busy further developing both BattleMechs and the Unity SDK. In today’s update we’ll go over what we have been doing so far in 2022, and what’s to come.
As some of you may have seen on the Zilliqa Twitter we started the new year off good with compiling the first Android build of BattleMechs. So far all demo footage shown was compiled via the Unity Engine debugger, having a working ALPHA build of BattleMechs on mobile is a great milestone in the development progress.
As the blog post picture above shows, our team has also began the Play Store app submission process. Please note that this does not mean that BattleMechs is publicly available for download on the Play Store just yet.
BattleMechs Development Progress in 2022
As we kick off 2022, our team has been hard at work enhancing BattleMechs and the Unity SDK. With an ALPHA build for Android now complete, we’re excited about the milestones achieved in development. Stay tuned for more updates on our progress!
Upcoming Features for BattleMechs
Looking ahead, we’re focused on key developments, including the BLOX desktop launcher for MAC and PC, smart contract auditing for enhanced security, and a gameplay trailer for marketing. We aim to provide an engaging experience for all players!
| Feature | Description |
|---|---|
| BLOX Desktop Game Launcher | Developing a MAC and PC version of BattleMechs to expand accessibility for players. |
| Scilla Smart Contract Development | Prioritizing security by auditing BattleMechs smart contracts to ensure safe gameplay. |
| Gameplay Trailer | Recording and releasing gameplay footage for effective marketing ahead of launch. |
So, we’ve got a working Android build and are in the process of getting listed on the Android Play Store. What’s there left to do before launch?
BLOX desktop game launcher for MAC and PC
Some time ago we’ve shown a concept UI design for a BLOX dApp launcher application. Due to Apple’s restriction on publishing cryptocurrency related games on their platform we have decided to create a MAC and PC version of BattleMechs. We plan on launching this application alongside the Android app to allow more players to enjoy BattleMechs.
Scilla smart contract development
As with anything crypto-related security is the number 1 priority. We are currently in the process of developing and auditing BattleMechs smart contracts.
Gameplay trailer
For proper marketing the BLOX team is working on recording gameplay footage and releasing an app trailer in the near future.
