J-Jump Arena News

There's been an issue, where inviting friends to games would simply not work. This has been resolved in the latest patch.

• [h2]Unholy Bomb[/h2]
  
  A rare bomb with devastating effects! Not only it takes away 50% of player's remaining HP, but it also applies a fog curse, causing the player to have their vision greatly obscured!
  
• [h2]Mortar[/h2]
  
  Mortar allows you to easily choose a place on the map, to which you will send 4 explosive devices raining down form the sky!
  
• [h2]Powder Keg[/h2]
  
  When you choose this weapon, you'll jump like you normally would, with one exception! You'll leave behind a powder keg that explodes after several seconds.
  
• [h2]Teleporter[/h2]
  
  A device that allows you to pick any place on the map, to which you'll smoothly teleport yourself to! Whether you want to get away, or reach a difficult place to get, teleporter has you covered!
  

Hell is the theme of the new maps! 8 brand new maps are now in the game, accompanied with completly new & fitting music tracks!

[h3]Change log:[/h3]

• Changes were done to the netcode. They should altogether result in more fluent multiplayer experience.
  
• Fixed the issue where players sometimes would get stuck to ice, unable to jump up from it.
  
• Fixed issues with scoreboard sometimes not proreply displaying mid-game and post-game.
  
• Fixed an issue where the gained experience sometimes wouldn't calculate properly when playing with bots.
  
• Maps that had required player count from 4 to 10 were changed to from 5 to 10.
  
• Fixed the issue where in private games Custom Settings would always be enabled, after hosting a room.
  

[h2]Portugese language has been added to the game![/h2]
I'll be honest - I've just used online tools to translate the game from english to portugese. I believe it's still better than nothing, for those who don't speak english too well! If you have any comments or notice some things that simply were translated wrongly, don't hesitate to let me know on Steam forums!

[h2]Begin a VIP just got a lot more awesome![/h2]

[h3]Edit your online match settings to your heart's content![/h3]
From now on, VIP Upgrade DLC owners are not just able to host private games - they're capable of completly customizing their match settings! Here's a list of things that the host can now set up:

• How much time do players have to make a move.
  
• How many turns have to pass for a game to end (For Last Man Standing it is turn limit after which nuke falls).
  
• Players' starting HP.
  
• For how many turns do players have to wait after being eliminated
  
• Jump power modifier.
  
• Enable or disable nuke for Last Man Standing mode.
  
• % chance nuke has to explode each turn.
  
• Which weapons will spawn on the map.
  
• % chance for each weapon to spawn.
  
• Players' starting equipment so that they can begin the game already carrying some weapons.
  
• Choose any specific mode and map.
  
• Pick the number of bots that will play along real players.
  

[h3]Why do players have to pay to host a game?[/h3]
A question that is asked often, and I can understand the frustration! Please, keep in mind that for me to be able to keep this project alive and regularly updated, it needs to generate some revenue. It's still possible to play public games with friends. I love making free games, but I'd hate to make something pay to win, and people usually don't bother buying DLC with just cosmetics - that's why I'm doing my best for the DLC to justify its price, and I hope the new update will help with that!

[h3]When you buy the DLC, you're not just getting a bunch of stuff - you're supporting the creator of the game, and the future of J-Jump Arena![/h3]
