This post is to follow the progress of our biggest update.
Since February 1st 2019, daily updates were attacking Destination: Benford because of the way the map looked, and general gameplay. At the end of February me and the development team, including 2 new ones, decided to remake the map, including new gameplay features, in what we call ‘Destination: Benford Remastered’.
