Major update

Zoe Volume 2 is HERE!

ZOE IS HERE

It took a long time, but Zoe Volume Two is finally out. There's been a noticeable improvement in animation quality in this level compared to the previous ones, and you can expect more of the same quality for the rest of the levels in volume 2. As well as having a higher volume of animations per level.

Recent staffing changes have allowed us to get the artwork for levels done a bit faster than before, so we'll be tightening our deadlines to hit goals that were previously unreasonable for us to hit.

After volume two is complete, we'll be revamping animations from some of the volume one levels as well as adding animations to levels that didn't receive enough love, such as Gale's level.

ARROW KEYS

You can now use the arrow keys to play Beat Banger! We've updated every single chart to feel more directional and provide you with inputs based on the movement of the action happening in the animation. Of course, if you prefer, you can still switch back to using the letter keys, but note that all of the charts have been rewritten to feel more directionally influenced.

Future Levels

Despite how long it's taken us to get Zoe's level out, we've made a lot of internal changes that should help us get around the walls that usually lead to level delays.

It's been a while since our last update post, so this covers everything from the last few months, including a batch of changes that quietly went out in June. Downscroll Mode Notes can now fall down four lanes instead of scrolling in from the side. This isn't just the old bar turned on its side.

We did a lot to ensure most of the legacy levels already in place ran smoothly. Keep in mind that many mods are NOT properly formatted, so if they don't work, make sure the mod is formatted correctly first. How do I play the legacy mods? Now there's a tab in your mod browser that shows a legacy option. You can click that, and it should…Major update4 Apr 2026Cathy Volume 2 is out!In The Dorms! CATHY'S VOLUME 2 LEVEL IS FINALLY HERE. We wanted to try something different this time around when it came to the animation quality. Sure enough, it paid off, but it took much longer than we expected. We were a bit overly ambitious with her level, but we wanted to try adding two cum scenes. And now that we know how long it takes to produce that sort of detail, we will take steps t…
