Strike Force Heroes 2 - Sponsorship + Details

[Justin]

Today's update is short but sweet, as we're working very hard on the game's upcoming release.

Sponsorship
The game will be sponsored by ArmorGames and NotDoppler and hosted on ONLY their website for 45 days. Anyone who wants to play on other websites will have to wait 45 days to do so, sadly. This helps AG and ND get more visitors to their site, as well as helping us catch any bugs and problems before the game gets spread around the entire internet.

Online Saves
We're planning on putting in Online saves (and quests) for the ArmorGames version, using their online save system only on their website. For the NotDoppler fans (and people who prefer to play on other websites), we're trying some new experimental save system that will work on any website. This isn't 100% guarentee, but we're trying our best to get online saves working anywhere. You can invest a lot of time in this game and we want to make sure no one loses any progress!

Release Date
We're hoping for Thursday March 7th, but as I mentioned we're doing experimental work to get online saving working everywhere. Because of the online saving system, we might have to push the date back to March 14th, so lets all cross our fingers that everything goes smoothly and the game is ready for the 7th!

Thank you Justin. I am your biggest fan!!!!!!!!( not really, juice box is....)

I wonder, how do these common save files work? I'm taking a wild guess, but does the game store the files in your PC instead of saving them on the website as a cookie? It would explain the thing. I'm no coder though, so I don't really know.

Btw, remember to add a "reset all" button. For these people that want to do everything again, y'know.

Cool beans.

I feel kind of selfish by wishing it's the 14th, because that's my Spring Break which means no co-op :3

[MegaMrBob]

Wow, this is great. I'm glad that it will have online saves for armor games. Good luck with that experimental saving system, I hope it works out.

[Oxtail Chamberpot 13]

Epic work Justin! This is very pleasing, especially the new save system. Really well done, jolly good show!

[Jo Jo]

Cool! Now with the release date told, there won't be any noobs/newbies who ask for it :3

Now it's all upon waiting...

Common save files are stored as cookies. Delete it and the data is gone..

Nope, probably not. Cookies are local even to browser, though some browsers will convert cookies from other browsers on your computer. That information isn't online, only on the computer you use. The common save system would have to be connecting to a database or something with some sort of log-in function within the game, else you wouldn't be able to specify what progress you had whenever you open the game elsewhere. It might have a little bit to do with cookies so when you reopen your browser you'll still be logged in, but otherwise the system would all be online.

ArmorGames and possibly notDoppler will have online saves? Awesomeness! Can't wait for release; my fingers are crossed.
