Sunday Tips: Races

You can run races in the game to earn more Fusion Matter. On your mark, get set, GO!

If you're not running races, you're missing out on a lot of FusionFall fun!

You've probably noticed those official-looking characters standing around near the Warp Gates in FusionFall's Infected Zones. Those are SACT (Special Alien Capture Team) Agents, and they're stationed there to oversee races.

Races are a fun way to compete with other players and earn Fusion Matter. To start a race, click on a race attendant, then click the Start Race button. Make your way through the Infected Zone collecting Fusion pods, and finish by checking in with the race attendant at the end of the course (usually on the opposite side of the Infected Zone from where you started). It's you against the clock! Once you finish, your score will be compared to other players who have run the course.

A demonstration of races starring ChronoSquare, which back then was honored by FusionFall in the "Player Spotlight" posts as a fast runner and racer.

Remember, practice makes perfect! Get really good at races and you could see your name on FusionFall's home page as a featured High Score!

Do you remember? Adventure Time Battle Party

I know this doesnt have anything to do with FusionFall, but i do want to talk about it since it kinda ties in today with it, not in gameplay, characters, story etc, but in its Engine: Unity Web Player, which was recently removed in most browsers (hence why FusionFall RETRO will be playable via a Launcher and not thru the browser). Due to its removal, the game is dead, but it certainly has some interesting mechanics and story behind it. Today im taking you all to a trip down the memory lane of this game.

The game was released back in June of 2014, and it was a MOBA, or Multiplayer Online Battle Arena. In it you could choose your favorite Adventure Time character and use them to fight against other characters in a League Of Legends type of gameplay. It was really popular and fun too.

It was simple to play. Move your hero by clicking wherever you wanted to go. Attack with Mouse 1. Press Q,W or E to use your special moves or powers (with E being your "Ultimate"), and press B to level up your heroes Backpack once you Level Up by collecting XP.

Backpacks could be bought using the coins obtained at the end of a match, where your would be put in a team of 3 battling against 3 other opponents. Coins could also be used to buy Outfits and Skins for your characters.

Each character had special abilities or characteristics unique to each other, and this could be affected by the Backpack you used, and the items you upgraded in said Backpacks. Me personally was a Magic Man main, or i preferred to use him most of the time, followed by Gunther and Marceline.

Now you might be asking: Why would such an awesome game go down? While many say it was because of Unity´s death, which also killed other games like Project: Exonaut and FusionFall Heroes (begone) , its main reason was because Cartoon Network decided to cease development on the game. The last patch for the game was in May 19th, 2015, where afterwards it experienced a short and painful death.

Its sad to see such an awesome game go, as i loved it and would still play it with regularity, even if it was just single player. CN even had great hopes for the game, as they even hosted Tournaments. Maybe if it went the route of FusionFall at the beginning, where it began as a Pay-to-Play game, maybe it could have lasted longer.

To what i know, the game can still be played in the best browser of them all: Internet Explorer, but alot of the graphics and some sounds are missing, according to some people and sources.

As of now, the only multiplayer game left for CN is TKO, which might go down any time now considering that most of the multiplayer games are getting canned and left to rot. Im planning to cover TKO at a later date, but for now you can still go and play it. You simply need to dig deep into the CN site to find it.

Did you play Battle Party when it was still active? What was your favorite Character to use? Which backpack did you use? If you could bring back any game from CNs past that is no longer available: Which would it be? Comment below and they might be featured in a later post.

Sneak Peek news

So with Sneak Peek Weekend coming soon, Weekly Devblogs have stopped, so now we are just waiting till the announcement for the Sneak Peek comes out.

According to the devs, the reason for it is to prepare for it. I dont blame them, and im happy they are spending all of their time on Sneak Peek Weekend rather than writing devblogs.

Good Luck to the devs!

Update on my whereabouts (on the blog)

Hey all!
You may have  noticed my disappearence all the sudden, but thats because my school decided to go all crazy and give us a butt ton of work and homework, alongside tests before vacations began. That and me getting sick were the reasons why i couldnt post recently.

Im back, im out of vacation, and im technically still alive, since ive been uploading on YT recently. We just hit 300 subs, so ill see what ill do for that.

Im planning on making the site more beginner friendly and making it the #1 stop for all your beginner needs about FusionFall.

Stay tuned for all i have planned, alongside more, during these 2 long weeks of Easter vacations :P

FusionFall RETRO Weekly Devblog: Sneak Peek Info!

Hey everybody, this update covers our upcoming Sneak Peek Weekend, including what to expect, how it will work, and what we intend to use it for!

You read that correctly, we’re gearing up for our first Sneak Peek Weekend, a concept many older players might be familiar with. The original game featured several weekends where the game would open to allow players into the game briefly so that they could test things and ensure they were all ready for launch. We thought it was a fun idea, and we’re nearing the need to get large amounts of players online and testing things, so we’re doing the very same thing!

Sometime in the near future, we’re intending to temporarily release the Future Zone for a full weekend in order to collect some data, ensure things are working as we’re expecting them to, and give everyone a chance to experience the Future in its entirety. Keep in mind, we’re using this opportunity largely to help us out with bugs and game security. Be warned that characters made during this period won’t be saved or carried over to the official full release.

We’d like everyone participating in our Sneak Peek Weekend to help us out by reporting any glitches or bugs you may encounter. We’d like to hear them all. Please post that information here on the forums in the Glitches and Bugs section, with all the relevant information regarding the error you’ve encountered.

We don’t yet have a concrete date for our first Sneak Peek Weekend, and we may only wind up needing just one. As always you can keep up to date through our weekly updates on the forums, and as always, thanks for reading our latest weekly update!
