Shores Of Hazeron Changes City Neglect And Abandonment Mechanics

Shores of Hazeron's lone developer recently proposed a rework the game's city neglect and abandonment mechanics. As a part of this rework, several major systems were changed.

September 27, 2015 Matt Chelen Comments

With Shores of Hazeron's lag indefinitely fought off, Software Engineering turned their attention to another major issue in Hazeron, jerky movement.
