Hello Players! Troy here, with a small update to Ultimate Arena. This one fixes custom text for characters, so creators will want to take note of the changes. Message To Character creators: custom-only messages now work. Before, if a global message pool for an action was empty, some updates could fail to appear even when a character had custom lines for that action. Now message selection is saf…
It's Ultimate Arena's 2nd (err.. 8th?) birthday, and we are delivering one of the most requested features in our latest 6.0 update: Ultrawide and Scaling support. What's changed? When Ultimate Arena was written, it ran exclusively in windowed mode at 720p. This made sense at the time because it was meant to be played on stream at 1080p, and that gave room for additional content for the streamer…
Arena Operators, Further improvements have been made to the tools at your disposal, in particular a secret Santa hat applicator that only activates in the month of December has been added to the detailed fighter view. You can only enable Santa hats on characters that believe in him. Snow and holiday theming has returned, and should return every year automatically before reverting to the regular…

While normally we consider ourselves mid-tie…
