💥DO U COPY? NEW RELEASE IS LIVE (UPDATE 2.0.11)💥
Hey everyone!
Hope you’re all well.
Great news! Today is a great day for the Freaks United team and this is quite emotional for us to tell you this.
The Early Access phase is officially over, and "Do U Copy?" is now complete.
We're thrilled to announce this milestone and share it with you because it’s been a hell of a ride.
Without further adieu…
Let's Dive In!
🚀 What's New in 2.0.11?
Version 2.0.11 is packed with new mechanics and bug fixes that we’ve gathered for the past few months.
---------------------------
NEW ARTISTIC DIRECTION 🎨
We changed our whole artistic direction to bring a better looking vibe and feel to our environments! 95% of all the assets you’ll see have been made in-house by our team of artists to give Do U Copy? its own style.
----------------------------
5 ADDITIONAL LANGUAGES 🎙
More players around the world can enjoy "Do U Copy?" in their native tongue with the addition of French, Italian, Spanish, Portuguese and German languages (along with English of course!).
-----------------------------
TUTORIAL FIXES⚙️
We’re still working very hard to bring you a better tutorial experience and we managed to fix all the breaking bugs found in the previous tutorial version.
-----------------------------
PUZZLE IMPROVEMENTS 🛠️
We've fine-tuned the puzzles based on your feedback. From balancing the difficulty to changing entire mechanics, puzzles are now more engaging and easier to understand than ever (looking at you Safe game 👀)
-----------------------------
NEW SFXs 📣
We added over 100+ SFX to the game and menus to make you feel at the heart of the heist.
-----------------------------
IMPROVED UI and UX 🚨
We added more auditory and visual feedback to the overall game UI/UX for Hacker and VR apps. These changes, along with added animations and new text menus should bring some more clarity over the events happening during a game.
-----------------------------
BYE BYE BUGS 🪲
As for every update, we took your feedback with great importance and fixed over 300 more bugs found across our platforms. A huge props to our community for helping us tracking them.
-----------------------------
PERFORMANCE IMPROVEMENTS 📈
We refactored a lot of our code to bring a stable 80 fps on standalone headsets (for ex. Quest 2). Game should now run smoother, especially during heavy rendered scenes. We also changed server packages going with a more stable option so you should experience way less disconnection for the cost of an extra second during the loading scene 🙂
-----------------------------
LIVE SCOREBOARD 🚨
Discover an all revamp scoreboard to save your best times and to challenge your friends or the players all over the world. Situated on the HUB, you’ll have the opportunity to find your pseudo at the top of our Wall of Fame. So make sure to train enough to be among the best players of Do U Copy ever.
-----------------------------
GIVE LIFE BACK TO MUSIC 🎧
You’ll be able to find on the in-game menu 4 different themes to set up the mood for a properly conducted heist. Huge props to our in-house @Jeuneoji_music for creating these terrific compositions!
-----------------------------
Owing to a technical issue with Steam, the game's official release from Early Access is now rescheduled for March 13th with a price change. However, please regard the current version as equivalent to the fully released version.
We would like to thank our amazing team of artists, developers and designers for their amazing efforts and caring attention on bringing this game to reality.
Huge thanks to our players for trusting us during this Early Access period but also sticking out during our most challenging year. We wouldn’t be anywhere without you and we sincerely hope that this final version will bring joy and help push the medium that we all know and love forward ❤️
In the meantime, we’ll keep adding new features and support to Do U Copy? as we’re still working on exciting things to show you in the future.
For now, on behalf of the entire Freaks United team, thank you.
See you all in the virtual world 🍍
Cheers!
