Server Authoritative Phase 2, Colored Scoreboard, Bug Fixes, and the CONTRA EASTER EGG

Netblast
A downloadable game for Windows

Server Authoritative Phase 2

We have now moved all spawn, pickup, gun, map object, and player creation to the server.  This means, you can no longer edit the map items on your own computer which greatly reduces unfair play and cheating.

This also eliminates the duplicate pickup problem and greatly simplifies the code architecture.  These improvements will mainly be noticeable as general stability and fair play over the long term of the game.

Colored Scoreboard

Now you can finally see what color each player is on the scoreboard at the top left:

Bug Fixes

Finally fixed the problem where you wouldn't start with full ammo after re-spawning from a death.  Now your player properly starts with full ammo after coming back to life.

CONTRA EASTER EGG

Really excited to announce the Contra easter egg in the game:

It is left to you to figure out how to unlock this awesome capability.
