[h2]Hello, gamers! The 0.9.7 patch has arrived![/h2]

Note: The 📢 symbol indicates improvements based on community feedback!

[h3]🎮Major Changes[/h3]

💬 Party Mode Overhaul

[h3]Party Mode Overhaul[/h3]
The previous individual heart system did not align with the cooperative and competitive direction of the arcade party. We have switched to a shared heart system where all players share hearts, and we've added an energy system. Here are the changes.


[h3]Party Mode Start Button[/h3]

To improve accessibility to party mode, we've made it possible to start party mode directly through the UI. Enjoy party mode from anywhere in your arcade without any complicated processes!


[h3]Difficulty System Modification[/h3]

Our development team aims to transform Arcade Party into a challenging game for true gamers, not just an easy game anyone can beat. As part of this, we've added a player-customizable difficulty system and adjusted the difficulty of minigames and boss fights. Now, you'll start at the easiest difficulty and progress to higher difficulties based on your skill level.


[h3]Energy System[/h3]

The scoring evaluation system has been replaced with an energy system. You will earn energy based on the scores you achieve in minigames. If the total energy collected by you and your teammates falls below the threshold, you will take damage. if it exceeds it, you will deal proportional damage to the arcade machine.

A player can collect a maximum of three energy units.


[h3]Coin Item[/h3]

During the bonus game, not only will you gain lives, but you'll also be able to collect coins. We plan to add items that allow you to collect arcade coins during other minigames as well, so stay tuned for more exciting updates!


[h3]🛠Bug Fixes and Gameplay Improvements[/h3]

💬 Party mode rules adjustment for the minigame ‘Dino Safari’
💬 Party mode rules adjustment for the minigame ‘Dino Internet’
💬 Party mode rules adjustment for the minigame ‘Step It Up’
💬 Party mode rules adjustment for the minigame ‘Suika Party’
💬 Fixed an issue where character portraits were displayed too brightly

[h3]👾Known Issues[/h3]

📢 The minigame 'Slime Pang' has issues in party mode and has been temporarily disabled, but it's still playable in my arcade
💬 During the ‘Speedy’ stage effect, blocks overlap in the minigame ‘Robot Factory’
💬 The issue where the party mode proposal UI does not disappear during the start of party mode

Please send us your feedback after playing the new party mode. You can share your thoughts easily via comments or the 'Send Feedback' feature in the game!

Your feedback is very valuable to the development team. Thank you always.
