We've added a multiplayer easy mode, an obstacle course progress bar, and have fixed some annoying bugs in this latest update.
New features:
Multiplayer Easy Mode: Enable this to make the 2-player bomb bar a lot more forgiving by increasing the number of presses required before you blow up. Turn this on or off in Options when playing the game.
Progress Bar: We've added a progress bar to show you've gotten in the obstacle course, with indicators of where the next checkpoint is. Don't give up, keep going!
Bugs Fixed:
On laggy connections, the bomb explosion sound would sometimes play when you haven't actually blown up. We've now fixed this.
Thanks,
Nick and Robin
