Patch 1.8.2.0 is now live!
Hey everyone,
with this update we added our own friend system to the game. This has one main advantage: You can now more easily play with your friends across devices and platforms. It will also allow us to design more gameplay features around the friend system in the future to provide a bit more depth to the game.
This change also means that we are moving away from the Steam friendlist. Some of you probably won't be too thrilled about having to manually add the friends you've been playing with in the past to the new friendlist. That's why we've tried to make this transition a little smoother and show you suggested friends. These are friends from your Steam friends list who also own Scribble It!.
We are slowly but surely bringing the game to more and more devices and platforms. This means that some of our old systems have to be replaced by new ones. This is also the reason we added dedicated servers in the past and will continue to make everything cross-platform in the future. We hope you understand that we want to bring the game to as many players around the world as possible and therefore need to be as platform agnostic as possible.
As always, we encourage every one of you to give us feedback or opinions about the game on our Discord or on Twitter!
