More Questions, Bug Fixes and the Future of Boss Mode!
Hey everybody! We hope you all had a lovely festive period and are staying safe this winter!
For our 6th regular update we have concluded our Trivia Snowdown winter event and must sadly say goodbye to our Vs Boss mode - but not for long! Due to the exceptionally positive feedback the mode has received we have decided to make it a permanent feature, and we will be reimplementing the Vs Boss mode over the next week, alongside making Trivia Tricks DRM-free!
Thank you to everybody who took part in the event and for all the helpful feedback kindly given to create a better co-op experience. Over the next couple of releases we will be looking into:
These changes and updates will be delivered regularly to meet our first goal on our roadmap towards leaving early access.
The full patch notes of this update are below, update 0.8.8.0!

Thank you to everybody who took part in the event and for all the helpful feedback kindly given to create a better co-op experience. Over the next couple of releases we will be looking into:
- Better ways to communicate and share what you think is the correct answer with the lobby without having to use the chat box.
- Being free to veto categories against a Boss character.
- Making Boss characters more lively with a bit more personality.
- AI balancing and difficulty adjustments.
- Adding Achievements and cosmetics to reward beating Bosses.
- Other, smaller design feedback we have received in testing.
These changes and updates will be delivered regularly to meet our first goal on our roadmap towards leaving early access.
