I’m happy to announce that Battle Splash Alpha is now Available, and it is now possible to play the game Online with your friends or anyone. Just your Start Server in game (be sure to check Is Public Server to True), make sure you have Internet connection, and you are ready to go.

Along with Online Multiplayer Features, many more fixes and changes also took place in this update. Also, the 2nd Medieval Map makes a debut in this Version as well, with the first Environment Mechanic: The River - slows you down and add more Wet to your Character’s Max Water Resistant.

• Visual: No longer supports High Quality Character’s Shadow because of Performance and Availability.

Known Issues: (These issues might not occur in the Steam version.)

• Lobbies/Game Sessions: Not yet implemented Kicking or Voting, so Please BE POLITE to anyone.
• Lobbies/Game Sessions: Not yet implemented Private Lobby with Password. The only Private Lobby is when Player choose to not broadcasting their host, and other players use Direct Connect to join in. However, if the Server is a Public Server (that is: not behind any Router), then it is possible to play a Private Match Online.
• Networking: Sometimes the game cannot connect to the destination host. This is due to some Router’s architectures. If such event occurs, try re-connecting the same host again.
• Networking: For some router, it is not possible to Connect to any host at all. This is a very Rare case, and very unlikely to happen. However, if your router is such, then it can’t be helped.
