Looking Back
We're over 2 months into the game's release now, and it has been fantastic. One of my biggest goals was to create a space and platform that would allow players and their personalities to shine, and in this regard I think that release has been a huge success.
However, there has been a lack of polish in several areas that needed sorting before I shift focus to new maps, modes, and sets.
Voice chat was completely rebuilt and is now high quality, tuned to attenuate naturally, and heavily optimized. Loads of role changes were made, making the game more approachable for both new players and new hosts. The final step of polish is a change to all role arts in this update, making them more presentable.
Looking Forward
This update creates a sturdy foundation that will allow loads of exciting new content to be released over the coming months.
We will kick things off with the reintroduction of the Dark Set. It's going back into the oven for a week or two so it can be built upon and improved.
After that we will see the introduction of our first community set, Olympia by Azylia. Olympia has 100 roles based on Greek mythology, and has gameplay that focuses on manipulation and misdirection.
I have loads of other bits coming soon; such as:
A new map set in a creepy graveyard.
More emotes!
Something to keep that ADHD brain of yours busy at night.
Two more community sets (no spoilers)
A music player for your house, featuring music made by the community.
More customization options.
Lots more nights of love and laughter <3
