Let's play some LAN games!

Well, it required a bit more effort than we originally planned, but today we're very happy to release LAN support for 8-Bit Armies! It's beta, but our internal testing shows that it's stable and working with just a couple minor issues we didn't want you to wait on. Please give it a try and let us know if you encounter any errors.

We're also making a change to our Featured Community Maps. Some of you didn't want to auto-subscribe to 3 new maps each week - and we agreed. Therefore, we've modified our back-end so that auto-subscribing is no longer necessary. Again, let us know if you spot anything out of the ordinary.

As always, we appreciate your feedback and hope you enjoy the new features!

-8Bit

NEW FEATURES:
LAN mode support (BETA).
- (Known Issue: Rally point lines missing)
- (Known Issue: Ready boxes are slow to update from players other than host)
Amazing news! and, as promised...

Great news.
I'm looking forward to decades of playing a great game
I've been waiting since before this games release date for lan mode. Purchasing immediately!
That's really nice :)

If you could add some graphical/visual options to disable for people like me, it would be perfect (I have a Geforce 440, and the game makes it reach its max temp very fast (90°C), especially with the map of the new campaign).
Except for this (which is only related to my old pc), very good work ! :D Keep up this way guys !
Great news

Time to have a lan party!
Will the LAN-Mode also work without using Galaxy?
I'd like to buy it if I'm able to fully use it without any DRM oder Login required to play - just like in Good Old Days :-).

I tried it yesterday, and yes LAN multiplayer works without logging into Galaxy. Both Co-op campaign and online multiplayer don't work unless you're logged in.
This is awesome!
I said I'd buy the DLC once lan was added, so I'm doing that right now!
