Patch 1.7.6.0 is now live!
We updated the game once again and this is what we changed:
Chat Redesign & New Emote
A new emote has been added. We felt like giving other players a "Thumbs Up" from time to time would improve the ability to express your feelings :) 👍🏻
Also the chat has been changed. You can now permanently see the chat once you click on the new expand button that is attached to the toolbar. We also added indicators for players that guessed correct. This should make it easier to see who you're chatting with!
Other Changes
Other than that some lobby settings have been changed. We removed the settings to disable tools and change the max guess amounts. We saw that these settings we nearly never used. In the future, we're more likely to release entire game modes that take these setting options and turn them into more exciting gameplay than the settings have allowed so far.
The update also fixes a bug in our art contest. The winners of the last contest are now correctly shown in the art contest tab. All winning artworks will be shown a bit longer to make up for the lost time due to the bug.
Also, the Brands word package had to be removed to avoid legal issues.
Important information:
With the next patch we will improve the state of handling languages. There will no longer be a distinction between UI and in-game language. All languages that are available will cover the entire game. This will allow us do develop the game much faster and get rid of lots of ugly restrictions, edge cases and special treatments that are currently present in the game. This means that some smaller languages will no longer be available BUT WE WILL CONTINUE TO ADD NEW LANGUAGES AS FAST AS POSSIBLE and we understand that some of you may be unhappy with this. Right now, this is the only way for us to move forward. If you would like to help translating the game into your language, please message us on Discord or visit the Crowdin project.
As always, we encourage every one of you to give us feedback or opinions about the game on our Discord or on Twitter!
