Hey there,
We've been a hard at work on our next big update. After several weeks of work, here is what we've been up to:
(old: left, new: right)
We've improved the drawing experience. The old drawing canvas was a good start, but the new one allows you to express your ideas more freely and gives the drawing a smoother look overall. Additionally we've increased the canvas size, so you have more space for your drawing and it looks cleaner in the end. With this change we've adjusted the pencil size, which we feel is better now, but any feedback over in the Steam Forums is appreciated.
Our second big feature with this update is the playersound. When joining a game, players can now record a sound as a playersound. The game uses whichever microphone is available, so this works on pretty much every device you can think of. The playersound is then played whenever the player avatar is shown, resulting in an entertaining soundscape during the game. In addition to that we've provided several stock sounds for players, who don't want to record their own sound.
Other changes:
- The lobby QR-Code is now visible on the player devices as well, so players can easily help other players joining the game
- The party lobby layout has been redesigned to better accommodate smaller screens
- Normalized music and soundeffects, so they're all the same volume
- Added more explanations to the content submission page
- Game is not allowed to start when there is no presentation device in the lobby
- Fixed several smaller bugs
What's next:
In the next update we want to improve the player content submission even more. (Thanks for all the submissions this far)
