The official servers are offline at the moment. (we need some sleep too!) We'll keep you guys updated on the status of the server on our Twitter account:

That was fun guys, cool online play, multiplayer is always awesome and the visuals were nice too. I really had fun playing with you all.
This sounds really cool. Any chance of a mac build?
solid game, had quite a bit of fun playing it.
art work was killer, gameplay got a little stale a little quick but I think that was mainly due to just having 2 v 2.
another problem more players would have solved were your lanes which were a little less useful but I can see them mixing it up if you had a larger playing population so can't really fault you for that.
cute concept, well executed... just add a little speed boost to the tanks somehow
also props for doing networking & and a good game in a jam
Awesome game, had a great time playing on official servers with devs last night. Really fun mechanics and was nice to see that they intend to make an updated version. Gonna save this for LAN parties, I think it would be great fun if your around 10 players :)
I had a lot of fun playing with the devs yesterday! The tanks are a bit too slow in my opinion, though I really like the gameplay, it would be really cool to play with more players, I hope you continue working on this game. :)
Looking forward to that patch, how is it coming along? :)
Suggested important features which shouldn't be too hard to implent:
Name over player
ingame chat
win/loose text
scoreboard with player names and number of wins/losses
jumping (possibly not able to shoot while jumping so it doesn't get abused and turn into quake, should mainly be for messing around and exploring the map)
Very nice 5/5
Thanks for the feedback so far! We have started working on the post-jam version of the game. Social features like usernames and a chat system are definitely things we'd like to implement in the game. We're really excited to expand Freeze Tank!
We'll probably livestream the development of Freeze Tank this weekend. If you'd like to keep an eye on the development or official play moments, make sure to follow our Twitter. :) (@Tumbleweedgames)
@omaha: Unfortunately, we don't own a Mac system which is required. We'll look into this matter though!
I like the art style. I'm assuming that it taking along time after selecting join a server is because the server is down.
I couldn't get on a server, so I just made my own and hopped around. Can confirm that the explosions are immensely satisfying.
It looks great, I was alone so I launched multiple windows to test it. I totally like the freeze unfreeze mechanic I will keep this and play it on my next LAN session
