On the topic of camera issues

All newsPlayers around this dateRead on Steam

Hey everyone, we've been seeing a lot of reviews focused around camera issues and we wanted to spcifically address what we think is going on.

There was a bug where the first time you launch the game the camera was being set to inverted by default. If you are unaware, camera inversion basically switches the up and down on your joystick/mouse.

This bug flew under the radar for years it seems, and since we as devs don't usually launch the game for the first time and most of our testers werent launching the game for the first time either - we failed to notice it.

This has been fixed in the latest build, and the setting is being reset to non-inverted for anyone who has already launched the game.

If you left the game because of these camera issues we would like you to try it again and see how it feels! There are also a variety of camera settings you can tweak if this doesn't make it feel perfect for you.

Also, try out the follow camera! You can enable it by holding the shift key or the left trigger on a controller, and you can even set it to automatically turn on after a certain speed. This is changable in the settings window as well.

Hopefully this helps a bit, thanks again for playing our humble ball rolling game.

As always, keep rollin'

Online spectator cam has been added when you die in a hub, or finish a race. It's pretty bare-bones at the moment but will be a good base moving forward. It's pretty self-explanatory, just hit the next/previous player buttons to switch between people. Thanks to a Community Hub post, we realized the initial level editor popup th…Game update20 Apr 2020v1.0.4 - Is everybody ready?The major feature this patch is a player ready screen showing other players and if they have hit ready or not - so you know if you are waiting for someone or if something has gone wrong. This also has some tweaks to the default settings, and resets camera inversion and the game resolution which we believe is where some of people's problems are coming from. The next patch will have a new follow…
