I have done a COMPLETE revamp on this game! Its a LOT of stuff but sure is interesting so make sure to read it!

How it works:

Unlike regular battle royale where the last person to survive wins, this will be a battle royale lasting 2 hours and players can spawn in the middle of the match (chose this as we dont have many players)
It lasts for 2 hours, and the storm comes from the edgs and closes in leaving a little final gap for 1.5 minutes, then resets, and the process continues creating an infinite storm loop
Players CANNOT join during these 1.5 minutes and must spectate
Purpose is to get as many kills and points as you can, which can be contributed to the shop to earn powerups for the game or cosmetics, and will also rank you up (once we add persistence and database)

UI Revamps:

Completely new death screen based on your rank in which you died and more stuff!
Merged leaderboard with minimap which no shows 4 tabs - minimap, leaderboard, kill logs, and people alive.
Added a lot of stuff like timers, notifications, etc

Game updates:

With the battle royale mode I have added:
Bases: These look like outposts and can be killed and claimed by players. Claiming this acts like a zone of invulnerabity you can go to if you are attacked or low health. You have a ring on you with the color of the base signifying that you own it. You get kicked out 10 seconds after coming in. Also contains a vault inside to bank the gems
Vaults: These are new vaults which rotate between rainbow colors. Any player can cash out their gems but only one player at a time per vault and they get kicked out after depositing

Bug fixes:

Heavily optimized so that the ping is as low as possible and the ping is now fully dependent on your location (server is in EU)
Fixed a few bugs that caused the server to crash and some other stuff.

Storm:

The storm is a purple fog that closes in on players. A player in storm loses 10 health every second and dies with no health. For now it has a basic purple translucent look, will improve it.

Theres SO much more but stardance is limiting me and Im also getting tired (waa) so see yall next time! Lmk what you guys think!
