changedHello everyone We've been collecting feedback from you all week, trying to fix as many bugs as possible and make as many improvements to the gameplay as possible. Here's what we managed to do:
addedThe main news is that going up the floors now happens automatically! You don't need to take any action to climb to a new construction level, but you can still use the same buttons to go down below if you want to
addedWe have added hints in the lower right corner of the screen explaining which button activates which action. We sincerely hope that this will make the game process more convenient, especially for beginners
fixedFixed a bug with not exiting the download mode after completing a level. In some cases, this bug led to the disconnect of the cooperative game, now this will not happen
changedThe time for reconstruction of the trajectory of the builders' movement after the demolition of the wall was shortened
changedUnfortunately, the problem with connecting players from the USA turned out to be bigger than we thought. As it turned out, the company that owns the servers that provide us with a multiplayer game does not have the ability to automatically connect players who are far from each other and connect to different servers - unfortunately, we did not even suspect this. This problem only concerns players from different parts of the world, for example, the USA-Europe or Asia-South America. We are very sorry if you encounter any inconvenience because of this. To date, this problem remains unresolved, but we will do everything possible to eliminate it.

Unfortunately, the problem with connecting players from the USA turned out to be bigger than we thought. As it turned out, the company that owns the servers that provide us with a multiplayer game does not have the ability to automatically connect players who are far from each other and connect to different servers - unfortunately, we did not even suspect this. This problem only concerns players from different parts of the world, for example, the USA-Europe or Asia-South America. We are very sorry if you encounter any inconvenience because of this. To date, this problem remains unresolved, but we will do everything possible to eliminate it.

Also among the plans for the near future is to improve the tutorial and fix some bugs with animations and builders getting stuck. If you have comments, ideas or suggestions on how to improve Buildest - we will be very happy to hear them in our discord channel! We are happy to continue working on the game together with the community and are grateful to everyone who gives us their feedback. Together we will make Buildest even better!

Thanks to all our players, Pavel and Olga.
