Beetle Buddies!

Thank you for your continued support of Dung Ho! We are so glad to be hearing such great things about the game, and are listening to your feedback. We hope you continue to have fun with it!

Today, we've got a few improvements to the game. Here’s what we’ve fixed in this latest patch:

New Features:

You can now help a friend get up when ragdolled by slapping them! "Get up, Megg!"
Party Display! Icons of your friend's adorable dung beetle faces now appear on the side of the screen when talking with VOIP. This can be toggled on/off in the Options Menu.
Added ability for the HOST to KICK Megg from the game. Also added the ability for the HOST to KICK their other friends too. But mostly for Megg. Sorry Megg.

Updates and Improvements:

Totems now display a pop up message that explains the buff they provide.
The Mushroom pick-up item has been upgraded to Super Mushroom. It bounces higher and combos better with items like the Silver Mold.
The usefulness of the Troll Bridge... er... the Root Bridge has improved. It has a better chance to fall more reliably and should now be a little bit easier to get the ball onto it.
Items meant for the ground, such as the Mushroom, will now spawn beneath the ball if thrown directly at the ball, rather than on top of the ball.
VOIP now has individual volume slider and better attenuation.
By popular demand, the Bomb will now destroy bouncy hazards and most small rocks. Boom!
The Mud Dauber Totem now grants a health bonus to the ball when a Shield is used, in addition to the Shield buff it provides when a Dung Pellet is used.
Rolling on Lily Pads and Hollow Logs no longer causes Ball Damage. That's fun to say.
Fixed items not spawning on root bridges.

Bug Fixes:

Fixed wing animation while flying with an item in hand.
Various bug fixes.

We've got some exciting stuff coming to Dung Ho! soon. The next update will make waves. Keep rollin'!
