ScoreBoard

Tips

Build blocks around yourself for defense, so the enemies hit the blocks around you instead of you. Also you can dig to avoid enemies, this is a good defense measure as well.Though, when the boss spawns, digging won't help you in fact it will hinder you. So stay above ground for the boss encounter. Keep in mind with the weapons the rife is easier to shoot but does less damage. While the sniper rife does more damage but it has a slow fire rate, so it will be harder to hit enemies. Also, only use shield if necessary because it will decay faster when active. When you die, your name, score, and survive time will be uploaded to the php server and sent back to the scoreboard. The score board will consist of the top 10 scores, so if you do well you will be legendary. Thank you for playing our game and good luck cause you are going to need it.
