Mystics Ablaze Playtest · published 7 Jul 2026, 11:10 UTC

New effects on the orb.
Magician now has proper color swaps.
Colors have been tweaked to make them more distinct
You can now use any combination of player colors (please give us feedback if there are any that are hard to distinguish)
Harbor’s music now has a new 3rd part that plays when a player reaches two points
Some sound effects have been replaced with new ones
Tutorial now forces players to wait a few seconds on each slide
You can no longer teleport instantly after leaving hit state after taking damage
Added some slick fades for reset round/skip arena.
What stage you last played is now saved, the game no longer resets to carnival on every game start.
Added timeouts to character select and round results menus.
In character select your selector disappears after 10 seconds
In round results the game continues automatically after 30 seconds (the last 10 show a countdown timer).
Controller disconnects now cause the game to pause and any player can control the pause menu in that state.
Controller disconnects in round results reduces the timeout timer to 11 seconds.
Controller disconnects in character select removes that player’s selector.

Health bar UI no longer goes off-screen with 4 players on 4:3/5:4 aspect ratios
Flytrap no longer gets people stuck in the air anymore for real this time
Flytrap no longer gets herself stuck in a pseudo-flying state when removing her orb while still holding something else.
Fixed an edge case where Magician’s boxes would end up on the wrong side of a ramp block
Psychic’s recall ability now re-enables when the orb passes through her as intended. This also re-enables her hypnosis ability by swinging the orb side to side like a pendulum
A bug where holding Psychic’s special would cause the orb to remain still has been fixed
