10 years ago, 8BitMMO launched on Steam Early Access. Let's do a quick meetup to celebrate and get people achievements like the 'Be the Developer' achievement.

I'll be online at this time at Primary server's social club (linked from root).

If you can't make it, feel free to idle in that room and you should get it automatically once I swing by.

Some previous event recaps here[robbyzinchak.com].

(Event will run about half an hour, not sure why Steam rounds up to 1.5hrs)

((Bonus note -- This is the 10 year steam anniversary, but 8BitMMO as a whole (in a very early form) actually started development on 12/1/01 12:30 pm. 8BitMMO is old enough to drink.))

Quick meet for anyone who needs the 'Be the Developer' achievement. I'll be online at this time at Primary server's social club (linked from root).

There is now (finally, lol) a streamlined application process for applying to join the private 8bitmmo discord server[8bitmmo.net].

(Event will run about half an hour, for some reason Steam wants to "round up" to an hour and a half? lol)

If you're a long time player, towards the end of this meetup is a good time to ask me for an invite to the private discord.

Last time we did the achievement meetup (six months ago), a bunch of people showed up[robbyzinchak.com]:

Afterwards, I will be doing the Dragon Audit Q&A Event.

I'm working on a new game! If you enjoyed the comedy in my past games like 8BitMMO, March of Industry, and Spaceship Crashed, I think you'll enjoy Dragon Audit.

A battle accountant storms the castle to rescue a princess, but accidentally rescues an overly friendly dragoness instead.

It's a humorous adventure story in the vein of point & click classics, told with an anime inspired 3D visual style and modern controller-friendly input.

In a world teeming with magic and danger, a city of accountants exists which has sequestered itself behind high walls and generally unacceptable accounting principles. A battle accountant there, George, is assigned the unenviable task of leaving the safety of the city in order to storm a nearby castle, slay the dragon, rescue the princess, and (most importantly) rescue the unpaid tax revenue. Meanwhile, Ayraw (the dragon), is tired of knights showing up to slay her, and is a bit jealous no one ever wants to rescue her. So she concocts a plan to trick George into rescuing her instead of rescuing the princess. Hijinks ensue as the two team up, the unlikely duo slowly growing closer through their shared adventure.

A little more than a year ago, we launched on Steam Early Access. I'm excited to now transition to full release!

Based on user feedback, I've added during that time:

• Music[blog.8bitmmo.net] from chiptune legends Danimal Cannon, Zef, PROTODOME, and Honin Myo Audio
• Many new buildables, including household goods[blog.8bitmmo.net] and many new kinds of blocks
• Laser Turrets[blog.8bitmmo.net]
• New weapons, like the Hammer[blog.8bitmmo.net] or Laser Rifle
• Achievements[blog.8bitmmo.net] & Trading Cards
• The Oven, to allow for transforming items into other items
• New user interface, including improved inventory, quest window, and build tools that more clearly indicate what build mode you're in
• Localization into Japanese, German, and Spanish
• Performance enhancements
• An all new megamap[8bitmmo.net] to handle the massive size of the world -- a player-built space now larger than the combined landmass of the United Kingdom.
• Pocket Universes[blog.8bitmmo.net], your own private universe to build in without having to find a spot on one of the main maps
• Pocket Townstones to allow players to start a town with only gold
• Containers[blog.8bitmmo.net] - store objects in a box with various permission levels
• Seasonal events, like CalcMMO[blog.8bitmmo.net] or the Easter Egg Hunt[blog.8bitmmo.net]
• Mac & Linux builds
• Transponders[blog.8bitmmo.net], a whole new PvE/PvP game mode that rewards smart base building. Can you survive the attack?
• And many other smaller updates
