• Map list now includes sorting by number of players — making it easier to find the most popular maps.
• Completion rate display has been reworked to reflect difficulty more intuitively, helping new players avoid unexpectedly brutal maps.
Gameplay Adjustments
• All skills now start with zero cooldown at match start, preventing spawn-based ambushes.
• Spike traps now have a smaller hitbox, allowing for more forgiving platforming.
• Wall climbing mechanics have been refined for a smoother yet more challenging experience.
• Rocket's explosion radius has been increased, making it easier to land a hit.
Bug Fixes & Stability Improvements
• Fixed an issue where the mouse cursor would disappear after a match.
• Resolved issues with skills not triggering correctly.
• Camera behavior improved after resizing the character.
• Fixed environmental jittering in certain scenes.
• Over 100 bug fixes and polish updates to skill feedback, spectator mode, multiplayer behavior, and UI presentation.
Official Maps
• “Autumn in New York” and “High & Dry” have been rebuilt to reflect the latest gameplay changes.
• Several new official maps have been added.
We’ll continue to make improvements based on your feedback and aim to provide a smoother, more stable, and more challenging experience. We’ll also be participating in the Steam Next Fest – Summer Edition starting June 9, 2025. We hope to bring you even more joy this summer!
