Mech Mice Beta Updates

Mech Moose has updated us on the Mech Mice Beta in a blog post on the Mech Mice Blog

We just pushed the big ol’ live button on a feature we know you’ve been asking for – USERNAMES!

Keep in mind usernames won’t be displayed in game right now – we just wanted to give you a better way to login other than an email address. Also, you never know when it might come in handy. Future proofing for the win!

You’ll also notice that we updated the action points on the unit portraits to make them more obvious. Action points are the amount of times a unit can move or shoot in a turn.

Go to play.mechmice.com now to get your username. If you already have an account, simply login and a screen will pop up asking you to enter your new Mech Mice name.
