Hey there, it’s us again.
When we first added cards, we said that six felt like a good starting set and that we would wait for feedback before adding more. It took us a while, but here we are adding more.
This update adds three new cards, lets you throw paint while the others are still drawing, and gives the best drawings from each game a place to stay.
Three new cards
Complete your first full game to unlock three additional cards for future rounds:
- Mirror Image draws every stroke on both sides of the canvas.
- Line Magnet snaps strokes to straight and diagonal directions.
- Confetti Pen leaves a trail of dots, stars, and dashes.
We have also redesigned the cards, added a Card Collection to the main menu, and built a proper unlock sequence for the new set. The effects work directly on the mobile drawing canvas and can even combine with each other.
The Gallery
A lot of great drawings used to disappear as soon as the game ended. We did not like that, so completed games now create an animated collage of the best five of their drawings.
Correct picks and player reactions help decide which drawings make the cut. Any cards used on a drawing are shown as well. The collage is saved locally on the presentation device, where it can be viewed again, opened in its folder, or deleted from the new Gallery.
Throw paint while you wait
Until now, submitting a drawing mostly turned your phone into a waiting screen. You can now charge a colorful paint blob and fling it onto the presentation while the other players finish drawing. It does not affect the game, but it does make waiting considerably messier.
Other changes
- The host can start a vote to stop an active game and return everyone to the lobby.
- If the host leaves or disconnects, hosting can be handed over to another player.
- Party music now stays synchronized after reconnects.
- Mobile settings save while they are edited, and several reconnect and layout issues were fixed.
- Japanese localization, fonts, cards, and content validation received another pass.
As always, let us know what you think. We are especially interested in finding out which of the new cards causes the most chaos in your group.
