A few days ago we told you that we were preparing a better way to enter the game. Today we have good news for you: the new BoomBang Launcher is now available to everyone.
The most important novelty is that now everything lives in one place. From the same launcher you can open both the HTML5 client and the usual Flash client, without having to download different programs or search for separate links. You choose which one to play with at the moment, and the two of you will continue living together as we promised.
Another thing you will like is that the launcher stays updated on its own. You will no longer have to download an installer every time we release an improvement: as soon as there is something new, the launcher itself takes care of updating it. We also added a news section within the same program, so that you are aware of everything without leaving the game, and it was available in Spanish and English.
Installing it is very simple. If you go to the download page from a Windows computer, you will find the new version ready to download. And if you already had the previous launcher, you will see a notice to update; When you install it, the new one replaces the old one without you having to do anything else.
Mac and Linux
For now we start with support for Windows, which is where we decided to start. We are already working so that the new launcher also reaches Mac and Linux very soon. Meanwhile, those who play from those systems can continue using the previous launcher as normal; There is no rush to change.
What's coming
As we had already told you, from now on all the new features of the game will reach the HTML5 client first, which is what we will continue to polish until it becomes the main one. The Flash client remains available in its maintenance stage, so those who prefer it can continue playing with complete peace of mind.
This launch is just the beginning. We have several things prepared and they will all appear in the new client little by little.
As always, we thank you for your patience and for every report you send us. Thanks to you the game continues to improve.
See you at BoomBang.
