Hello Puppeteers!
If you haven’t heard the exciting news, Steam recently announced Remote Play Together, which is a feature to allow local multiplayer games online with your friends! Now that it is available in Steam Beta, and since Shadow Fencer Theatre is a local multiplayer game that we want you to play with your friends, we are celebrating!
Today we have pushed out a free content update we are dubbing The Great Outdoors Update. In this update you will get a new character, Lumberta, as well as a special spooky forest stage For the Log of it All, just in time for Halloween. On top of that, we have three new Skits to test your skills: Skate! Balance! And Polo! Finally we added a new scoring option to the Improv mode, called Kings. Become the king of the stage by getting the first hit in, and hold your crown as long as you can.
Other updates include some changes to performance and optimizations to improve load times across all platforms. We have also made a fix to the elusive “One Take Jake” achievement. Previously the achievement was set to require the player to beat story mode without losing a life, however our strict adherence to strange theatrical terminology didn’t make that clear. Also, it’s kinda mean to ask that of a player when the gameplay can be so wobbly! We’ve updated it to be completing Story Mode without the need to Rematch a fight. Still a challenge, but certainly more understandable.
We are also putting Shadow Fencer Theatre on sale on Steam for the first time, so join the fun for 33% off this week!
See you on the Stage!
