For those who didn’t even know a prequel existed… STROBE!!!, the action packed, team based, boundary pushing, third person shooter that didn’t live up to it’s expectations now has a younger, much bigger brother, Strobe II.
Theatrics aside, Myself and GeekEthan been hard at work the past month or so re-writing strobe from the bottom up, re-skinning and reformatting all the UI, and restyling old maps and building new ones. One thing we did make sure to do right this time was make it way easier than it should be to add new content. Yes that’s right, Team Rudimentality is actually going to update a game past releasing it, I’m shocked too.
Being in a beta stage we want to keep it from gaining tooooo high of a player count, so in order to gain access you need to be a member of the Team Rudimentality group. It’s free to join, we have bake sales every other Friday. Once you’ve joined you have unlimited access to the strobe 2 beta!!1!1!!!1! If the group space is a problem and you really want to get in, shoot me a PM and I’ll add you to a list of fly people who can gain entry without being in the group.
What we would really like to gain from this beta is some serious feedback on essentially anything in the game. While we’re pretty proud of what we’ve accomplished, we’re also well aware that a few things in the game could use work, and we’d like to hear what you guys can come up with to better the game. Seriously we want to hear it, even if it’s just “this sucks, here’s why…”. Who better ask than a community centered around games and game development, right? We’re looking for bugs too, so bring your fly swatter and your screen capture software.

And without further ado, click the image below to travel off to the game page. You don’t have to, but I’d recommend bringing a friend or two. It can be quite boring playing a multiplayer game alone.

*[size=2]puppy and cotton candy are at the cost of the bug finder, not Team Rudimentality. Team Rudimentality is not responsible for your health or the health of your newly acquired puppy.[/size]
