Faction Play is now live!

Accounts are automatic and completely anonymous, simply saved to your browser cache via Unity PlayerPrefs, which is using IndexedDB under the hood. Thus, from now on if you want to run through the tutorial and first 3 zones again, you will have to wipe your browser cache. Sometime in the nearish future I'll implement a way to sync your devices to play all as once account, and also a way to reset your game without a browser cache wipe.

The 3 factions are Crimson, Gentian, and Verdant. At the end of the Nest you will hit a warp portal which will take you to the Neutral Space where you encounter 3 Guardians, each representing their Faction. They will give you a gist of what each faction is about, and you must choose a portal to enter. As you enter the portal, you will be joined to the faction.

Each faction has a home zone with Ally NPCs which are aligned to the faction. The faction territories, today, all connect to the World Arena. Over time as we gain players and add zones for territory control, the placement of the faction homes will be pushed farther apart. So, the orientation of the world today is only temporary.

For now each faction home has a warp portal back to the Neutral Space to let you switch sides. This is also only temporary, but meant to let players explore the environments.

Accompanying this major update are a number of bug fixes and improvements, such as entity names on their health bars, and health bars scaling correctly with the size of the entity. Too many improvements to list, really. I hope you enjoy them.
