1-UP World — reskinned underground dungeon map

Happy Beta Launch day!

Today is the day we launch the highly anticipated 1-UP-Platform Beta! After 6 long weeks of long days and sleepless nights from the team (and the community), the team are happy to launch the re-skinned, feature-rich Open Beta test!

However, this is still a Beta and not a full launch of the game. Having users try and test this version is KEY to ensuring the game is the best it can possibly be. The main point of this is to stress test the game and user scalability, along with find and squash any pesky bugs that may have avoided the QA stage.

Just to reiterate, this is not:

❌ A full launch of the game
❌ A finished product

This is:

✅ A Beta Test
✅ An unfinished product that is a work in progress
✅ A great way of finding bugs and improving the game
✅ An opportunity to help improve and stabilize the game
✅ An opportunity to try the game and have some fun!

With that being said, we want the best possible experience, with lots of people playing!

Be sure to hang out in the Discord voice channels while playing, and report any bugs in the #🐛report-bugs🐛 channel! And be sure to keep your eyes peeled for the new website launch today as well. Join our discord and check the announcements to begin.
