Hey Directors! We've been hard at work adding new enhancements, content, and bug fixes. There's plenty more on the way as we gear up for our Early Access launch in May 2024. Help us spread the word and invite more players to join in on the fun!



[h2]Enhancements:[/h2]

• Introduced a new UI for cards in zones such as the opponent's hand and Extras, designed for easier navigation, viewing, and selection of cards.
  
• Enhanced card pack opening animations now include an exciting reveal of each card, along with the ability to preview a large visual of the card once the pack is opened.
  
• Removed redundant FX type filters from the Collection.
  
• Introduced the "Queenpin max out" animation – watch Queenpin in action!

[h2]Bug Fixes: [/h2]

• Corrected an issue in the tutorial where players were prompted to dodge before being shown how.
  
• Added missing spikes VFX.
  
• Fixed a bug where Totem Boy's aura was reapplying every time a new character came on set. (Thanks, @yarractheeln)
  
• Ensured performance animations will not play if a character in the Extras or in the hand. (Thanks, @jetmanskye)
  
• Addressed an issue with extra characters performing due to Qaal; they will no longer perform if Qaal was removed from the set.
  
• The Undo button will not disappear correctly if you use Qaal's performance UI first. (Thanks, @toniemacaronie16 and @tougarashi3357)
  
• Resolved an issue where characters with the pack hunt keyword would perform an empty attack instead of dodging. (Thanks, @dunkoro )
  
• Fixed "Tag
• in!" to disallow another character from the hand to play if the selected character is not present on set when "Tag
• in!" is used.
  
• Fixed several issues with narrative sound, including potential duplication and volume control problems. (Thanks, @yarractheeln )
  
• Addressed text cut
• off issues in the Collection search bar.
  
• Fixed misalignment issues in Illuminati Lizard and Roast Comic Frog max out animations. (Thanks, @n4trion)

• Resolved the Laugh Bot crash issue. (Thanks, @dunkoro)
  
• Fixed various other minor bugs and crashes.
  

Additional Note: The star of the 2001 movie Exit Wounds, Steven Seagal, a noted aficionado of carrot cake, had absolutely nothing to do with this update. Any rumors of his involvement are entirely unfounded and should be dismissed.

This hotfix addresses the following two issues primarily, so the list is short:

• The username on the topbar is now cropped correctly (thanks to T°-°N for the report).
  
• Unintentional access to some debugging functions has been removed (thanks to Dunkoro for the report).
  

And just to be extra clear, Steven Seagal has zero involvement in the development of this hotfix.

• Upgraded the game engine and gameplay logic, significantly fixing many old bugs and crashes. However, be aware of the possibility of new, missed bugs and crashes outside our scope of testing.
  
• Removed some debug features that were only meant for developers.
  
• Enhanced the tutorial for a better user experience.
  
• In the Collection, cards can now be added to the deck with a click, not just by dragging.
  
• Improved the visuals and stability of Alien Abduction (thanks to feedback from Majstor, MageArmour, toaster404).
  
• Removed an unnecessary board transition at the end of matches.
  
• Added cards that were missing in bots' decks, shoutout to toaster404.
  
• Fixed several issues with missions.
  
• Made various visual improvements.
  
• Fixed Cybocock incorrectly doing a counterhit twice.
  

[h2]Balance updates:[/h2]

• Stripped OG now attacks the left flank instead of any random target.
  
• Auto attacks, like Brawling Broccoli's, now always go from left to right.
  
• Bartender Hydra now attacks from the left to the right flank.
  
• Trope damage can now be dodged.
  
• Puffer's Switch can now counter everything.
