3079 new version!

By -

3079 the blocky RPG inspired by Minecraft and Fallout has released a new version! An odd game I took a test drive of before.

The new version has a tweaked look;


The game has been getting good ratings and is the most popular game on Desura right now!

QuoteFull list of changes in 2.3b:

    • Fixed: characters sometimes spawned with higher than normal levels
    • Fixed: items couldn't be picked up in downward elevators

    • Fixed: a rare crash when saving game

    • Characters will now hold items properly, and they will be sized correctly
    • Made elevators wider & easier to use
    • Cancelling the graphics setting window will bring you back to the Main Menu
    • Added a "Poisoned!" warning message when poisoned by terrain
    • Other small tweaks to improve performance


Update: Phr00t just pushed out 3079 v2.3.1b which updates the underlying engine to fix a few more issues;

QuoteI have uploaded v2.3.1b to Desura. It should include some engine updates on top of all the updated textures and fixes. However, the primary "demo not working" fix isn't in 2.3.1b yet, because the jMonkeyEngine update hasn't been pushed to me yet with the fix. I will get this out in the next day or two. However, try 2.3.1b when it comes -- it might work for you if you had trouble before.
