Patch 0.9.2 – New Maps! Beach Map & Candy Land (revamped) – Bombergrounds: Battle Royale

Hello ducklings,

We’ve just finished the 0.9.2 patch which adds a completely new map (Beach) and a revamp of the old Candy Land map, which has gotten a full visual makeover and also structural improvements overall.
We have put a lot of work into the backend of the game servers, to make the game more stable, less buggy and to be better prepared for upcoming new features.
