The gun graphics and everything is so great. Also runs pretty smoothly on my rather weak pc. Awesome work! Cant believe you did so much by yourself and for that too for free!!
Men imagine the Latino-Speakers Comunity (im from it xD) but its such a hidden game my friends just xdxdxdxd it means that just dont even know about itchio xdxdxdx
such a rude men i recommend u dont do that useless comments u gonna give a bad point of view of others ussers but if u cant do that its because ur bommer or a fetus xdxdxdxd
Nothing will be removed. If you don't have email, then create one. If for some reason you don't want to use your email, then it's your problem and nobody forces you to play this game.
why tf would the dev remove the most crucial feature that keeps out 80 per cent of the hackers for a 8yr old with a pc that cant get stable 60 on their old machine
It's on the devs end, I don't need to care about it, I am a user, I download the game and launch it, if there is an issue with permissions then it's not using windows api correctly and it meets the requirements.
I hope you understand that I am just one of many thousand game developers on itch, who published game here. If you can't download something from itch, then problem is between you and itch. As far as i know nobody else has problem with downloading SW. If you don't believe me, then join discord (link in description) and ask other players.
i'll explain in detail, i downloaded it from a browser(the game) i opened the file up, (skillwarz_76_x64.7z), and opened it, i never knew a itch.io app even existed, itch.io on the browser is working fine
"the installer downloaded fine" game don't have installer (it's just game in archive), that's why i asked about itch.io app, as only app has installer.
Would it be possible to add Vulkan version for GNU/Linux? Because currently I have to run .exe with DXVK to have vkBasalt (like Reshade) post processing layer.
BTW. Thank you very much for making this game cross-platform!
Can you show me some screenshots (or better video), so i can see how game looks with/without vkBasalt? In forum we have section for Suggestions, so you can create topic there and upload screenshots, or video.
Hi. I was wondering if we are ever going to get any more attachments, for the guns. Like under barrel grip and lazers. The game can become a bit boring when you just have the same guns with the same sights.
Ive been playing for well over 2 years and can say that this is by a mile the best fps game on itch.io. Constant updates as well as new prospects for new exciting features. being a part of the community can be rewarding as well and feedback is constantly being considered by developer. fixes for bugs are fast and while the player base is small compared to other games of this quality it is still more than impressive to see that the dev is continuing to keep up with it.
The gameplay if fluid and the mechanics are simple at a base level but can be mastered to be something indistinguishable from what it was when you first start playing. Movement has a lot of depth, aiming feels good, most maps can be a play ground for your skills if you learn to improve said skills.
The game also has a Wip skin creator and map editor both of which show much promise. overall this game is amazing and is definitely a top 5 game for me, even including all the 100+ triple A games ive played.
Tl;dr, Fun game, feels fluid, lot of features, map editor&skin creator Wip
Before update i am hiding current version of game, so someone don't download old version. Upload of new version takes around 20-30 minutes. Seems that itch informs about new version at stage when old version gets hidden and new version is not yet uploaded.
Check junk/spam folder and on registration double check that you entered email without mistakes. And if you use some unknown email service, then i will recommend to use gmail.
so ill be in matches where my ping is 320 and the limit is 300 and i know thats bad but my whole family is on zoom for work and stuff, but it always says to pick a room with no limit, but the max ping is 500?
No, the game is online only. Adding offline mode with bots would take a lot of time and it wouldn't be worth it because only small % of people want it.
Yes, but i think a lot of people want it, because if you want to play like with "eassier" people or their is a server and you don't want to play that type of game. I ask this because i have a friend who regrets it. I won't make an issue about it if you're not going to do it.
Even if 99.9% will vote for offline mode, it will not be added anytime soon. It's one of last thing i may consider to add. I am making online game and i don't see any advantage from players who will play in offline mode. If you want to practice before playing online, then try practice mode, where you can test weapons and train your aim by shooting bots.
go to the app, look up the game, hit install and accept all the prompts. please dont spam. you can also ask these thing in the forums on the site or look in the replies here. just google it if you need to know so bad.
yes, its the same servers as the site we are on, the game is not posted here and is not posted there either, so you are requesting a download that does not exist. the main reason to have the itch app is for auto downloads and posting games you make. i assume you want to download the game from there since you cant from here, but it will be available here as soon as it is available on the itch app. hope this helps.
The last time i played SW, was probably a half a year, maybe even longer ago and man do I love the new Updates. Especially the Ability to change your settings in the main menu helps out a lot.
This game has fun gunplay and me and my friends had a good time playing some death match. That said there's no reason at all to use anything other than the Recon class as the sniper is too good. It's like if you could spawn with the AWP in CSGO every round for free. Also, the maps could be more interesting.
Game will turn into fights through smoke as it will be very OP. Everyone will be forced to play that way, because players with thermal + smoke will have huge advantage.
Also night maps in SW are not so dark to require NV. Make them darker just to play with NV is also so-so idea.
All players are automatically connected to EU region. Don't search in other regions, as they are only for players who want to play with friends at low ping. Try to connect at different times of day. Half of day online is usually above 20.

The gun graphics and everything is so great. Also runs pretty smoothly on my rather weak pc. Awesome work! Cant believe you did so much by yourself and for that too for free!!
yea you dont need much to run it im very happy with that
When I try and open skill wars on my Mac it says you don't have permission to, do I need anything other then just skillwarz itself to run it
Just read description. You must give permissions. If you don't know how, then search tutorial on youtube.
go to syestem prefence and go security and press general then press open anyway and it will work
This game is a hidden gem I don't like how it's not so popular
[Edit]:spelling
Men imagine the Latino-Speakers Comunity (im from it xD) but its such a hidden game my friends just xdxdxdxd it means that just dont even know about itchio xdxdxdx
tried to logon because found a way to copy my mom mail on pc but sends a code please remove that otherwise might uninstall as a waste
if you are too lazy to create your own email, then uninstall.
When you create an account, a code will be send to your email, you need to enter that code in-game to complete your account creation.
Simply download the game and follow the instruction...
why u r touching ur nose with leg -_-
i shifted to a new game called Impressive Parkour Game we asked them to make a 32 bit package
such a rude men i recommend u dont do that useless comments u gonna give a bad point of view of others ussers but if u cant do that its because ur bommer or a fetus xdxdxdxd

🤣🤣🤣🤣 shi me 2 ka lagra

my vm friends are there get ready with the vm friends if they dont like we will massage
why on earth would you create a virtual machine on top of your 32 bit system? :DDDDD
i test these games now
website is collab vm or get a vmare
gonna try it later when u remove email optional
Nothing will be removed. If you don't have email, then create one. If for some reason you don't want to use your email, then it's your problem and nobody forces you to play this game.
i dont wanna get my mom mail to you so
create your own. It takes just seconds.
if i make an mail at 8 age and i also have an account so
If you are 8 years old then you should not even be playing this... go read a book or something lol
cant make a new one
Thanks
okay if you have your own then why did you want register with your mom's? :D
why can't you? most of the kids have like 8 email address by the age of 10.
im from india is this also blocked here is there a 32 bit verison because i have the 32 bit windows computer also desktop

bro what
you asked for the 32 bit version
yea maybe
but the game still run
i asked for to remove email thing on game
why don't you want to register? I don't get it.
can you test it
why tf would the dev remove the most crucial feature that keeps out 80 per cent of the hackers for a 8yr old with a pc that cant get stable 60 on their old machine
x86 = 32-bit version
i am from india and i play daily. stop playing with jio hotspot and get a decent pc i recommed something above 50,000 rs
great
Is this blocked in the us?
blocked?
idk I tried opening it and it says its blocked in my country
where do you see this message. Show me screenshot.
game opening and then crashing immediately... waste of time
and you don't think that problem can be on your side?
Your system meets requirements? Game has access to your hard drive to create folders, load maps, save screenshots?
It's on the devs end, I don't need to care about it, I am a user, I download the game and launch it, if there is an issue with permissions then it's not using windows api correctly and it meets the requirements.
If you need help then join forum, or discord and provide all info about your system.
well that's rude now ain't it
karen lmao
i can,t play with controller
where do you see controller support?
Controller support might be not be in game yet.
Simply bind controller buttons in control settings
that or get a controller app, that binds controller buttons to mouse/keyboard actions
for example, joytokey.
i cant download it
Contact itch.io support and ask them why you can't download: https://itch.io/support
no, the installer downloaded fine, it was using the installer, there was no problem with itch.io
what installer? itch.io app?
I hope you understand that I am just one of many thousand game developers on itch, who published game here. If you can't download something from itch, then problem is between you and itch. As far as i know nobody else has problem with downloading SW. If you don't believe me, then join discord (link in description) and ask other players.

problem solved?
your the developer you would no itch io wouldn't
Would it be possible to add Vulkan version for GNU/Linux? Because currently I have to run .exe with DXVK to have vkBasalt (like Reshade) post processing layer.
BTW. Thank you very much for making this game cross-platform!
Can you show me some screenshots (or better video), so i can see how game looks with/without vkBasalt? In forum we have section for Suggestions, so you can create topic there and upload screenshots, or video.
Here's a comparison between some games.
why with vkBasalt off games look so blurry?
All i see in this video how, Contrast Adaptive Sharpening fixes this blurry image.
vkBasalt GitHub with more details:
https://github.com/DadSchoorse/vkBasalt
One image comparison (vkBasalt turned on: CAS 1.0, played Windows version with Wine, ultra preset):
In past i was using image sharpening, but it's just something you don't even notice after playing 5 min without.
So you are asking me to release separate Linux build just to have slightly sharper image? Or there is something more then just CAS?
I can't open this game- it opens for a few seconds, tells me that it can't connect to the server, to wait for 15 minutes, and then the game shuts down
what OS?
Can you access https://skillwarz.com/
why my game is not opened?
explain your problem in details and provide info about your system.
Hi. I was wondering if we are ever going to get any more attachments, for the guns. Like under barrel grip and lazers. The game can become a bit boring when you just have the same guns with the same sights.
Of course. When you are working alone, you must set priorities. Attachments are not priority at this moment. Not in closest updates.
"The game can become a bit boring"
I think new game modes and features are more important than few more sights.
Ive been playing for well over 2 years and can say that this is by a mile the best fps game on itch.io.

itch is not updating the game whyy ?
i have no idea what you are talking about. If you need help, then explain your problem in details.
the game tell me that i need update but itch says that the game is up to date !?
Before update i am hiding current version of game, so someone don't download old version. Upload of new version takes around 20-30 minutes. Seems that itch informs about new version at stage when old version gets hidden and new version is not yet uploaded.
how long does it take for the e mail verifaction to send i know it said it be delayed but its been like 20 mins and i tryd it again and still waiting
2 min max.
Check junk/spam folder and on registration double check that you entered email without mistakes. And if you use some unknown email service, then i will recommend to use gmail.
i have checked
scartch that 30 mins
nothing
imma retry
so ill be in matches where my ping is 320 and the limit is 300 and i know thats bad but my whole family is on zoom for work and stuff, but it always says to pick a room with no limit, but the max ping is 500?
If your ping is above 300, then join (or create) rooms with 500 ping limit.
already 300+ ping is hard to play against, that is why max is 500
what about a campaign sort of thing? does anyone want that to be added?
hello oneman, whats the discord link?
it's in the description.
Is it possible to make offline matches with bots?
No, the game is online only. Adding offline mode with bots would take a lot of time and it wouldn't be worth it because only small % of people want it.
Hello Blink
Yes, but i think a lot of people want it, because if you want to play like with "eassier" people or their is a server and you don't want to play that type of game. I ask this because i have a friend who regrets it. I won't make an issue about it if you're not going to do it.
But thanks anyway for the answer.
This doesn't depend on me, I didn't make the game, I am just saying what Developer usually replies to comments asking about offline mode.
Does the developer see this message
u don't see my answer?
can you make a announcment on the discord server to see who wants an offline mode and who doesn't cair
Even if 99.9% will vote for offline mode, it will not be added anytime soon. It's one of last thing i may consider to add. I am making online game and i don't see any advantage from players who will play in offline mode. If you want to practice before playing online, then try practice mode, where you can test weapons and train your aim by shooting bots.
LETS GO ITS OUT
Everyone is like I WANT TO PLAY SKILLWARZZZ aaah
when will the builds be posted btw
no need to spam, one man says it will probably be done in the next 15 or 20 minutes since he posted.
how do u install the game via itch.io app
go to the app, look up the game, hit install and accept all the prompts. please dont spam. you can also ask these thing in the forums on the site or look in the replies here. just google it if you need to know so bad.
so i keep getting this message that says cannot read property 'build' of undefined. any idea what that is
yes, its the same servers as the site we are on, the game is not posted here and is not posted there either, so you are requesting a download that does not exist. the main reason to have the itch app is for auto downloads and posting games you make. i assume you want to download the game from there since you cant from here, but it will be available here as soon as it is available on the itch app. hope this helps.
thank
np
I WANT TO PLAY RN
any idea when the update will be done? will it be done before the end of the day? a few hours maybe?
15-30 min
awesome, thanks! love you and all you do, keep it up man !
it needs to be updated. but itch says there are no more updates.
builds are not uploaded yet
ah. sorry i didn't know.
any idea how much time will it take? cant wait to play lol
sburra rovente goes brrr
The last time i played SW, was probably a half a year, maybe even longer ago and man do I love the new Updates. Especially the Ability to change your settings in the main menu helps out a lot.
Keep up the good work!
This game has fun gunplay and me and my friends had a good time playing some death match. That said there's no reason at all to use anything other than the Recon class as the sniper is too good. It's like if you could spawn with the AWP in CSGO every round for free. Also, the maps could be more interesting.
Overall very fun, keep it up!
We have map editor. Nobody stops you from creation of "more interesting" maps.
can you please make it browser?
we already have, but light version (only TDM mode)
full version will be someday in future...
send link?
https://skillwarz.com/play.php
you should add thermal sights that only work on night maps or through smoke
you should also add a campain with secrets
Game will turn into fights through smoke as it will be very OP. Everyone will be forced to play that way, because players with thermal + smoke will have huge advantage.
Also night maps in SW are not so dark to require NV. Make them darker just to play with NV is also so-so idea.
"campain with secrets"?
we already have thermal sights, why add a different type
Nobody plays it, every server I go on there is only 1 person, and it's me.
I just wanna play a fps game :(
All players are automatically connected to EU region. Don't search in other regions, as they are only for players who want to play with friends at low ping. Try to connect at different times of day. Half of day online is usually above 20.
can u add auto update please?
You can use itch.io app to automatically update SkillWarz:
https://itch.io/app
But if you mean about auto updating game without using the itch.io app, it would cost more and it would require more work.
ok thanks!
May I know if you build your own server or rent somewhere? Any recommendation?
https://www.photonengine.com/pun
Yup this is the right place to get servers.
some fetures that i think you should add:
bots to help just beginning players level up
search and destroy mode with a buy system for all guns
more optimization features
more maps
more guns
if youve played arma 3 add arma type zooming in. its really just zooming in on your sight while aiming
add anti armor wweapons and add vehicles
KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK
"bots to help just beginning players level up"
There is a Training Mode in which you can practice.
In-game click on Create Game-Game Mode-Training
You can change type of training you want by changing Game Map
Shooting- Practice aim by shooting bots
Sandbox- Test weapons damage by shooting at Target
UCAV- Practice flying UCAV
"search and destroy mode with a buy system for all guns
Search and Destroy Mode is already planned.
"more optimization features"
Do you mean more graphics settings, there is already enough of them.
"more maps"
There are over 20 maps, you can also download Map Editor to make maps: https://skillwarz.com/files/file/18-map-editor-beta/
"more guns
Its already planned.
"if youve played arma 3 add arma type zooming in. its really just zooming in on your sight while aiming"
You can suggest it here: https://skillwarz.com/forum/6-ideas-and-suggestions/
"add anti armor weapons and add vehicles"
anti armor weapons?
maps are too small for adding vehicles to them.
