Robot Trivia Funtime News

Today we've released a demo version of Robot Trivia Funtime, allowing anyone to test the gameplay for free.

The demo version includes two trivia packs: games and general knowledge. It also lets you play single-player against any combination of 5 of the bots introduced in a recent update. You can also try out the question editor and save your projects for later.

The demo version will be updated with important major features, but won't have all of the recent changes. It's intended as a test so curious players can see where we're at with early access development.

Purchase the full version of Robot Trivia Funtime to play online with friends, export your question packs, and customise your quizzes.

That's all for now! Thanks for reading.

This is a minor update that mainly addresses UI changes.

- Updates to intro UI (ongoing)
- Fixed glitch that caused editor to move off screen after exporting
- Fixed cleanup process on hard exit
- Various changes to menu UI

Our experimental NPC bots are now available in game. Robot Trivia Funtime can be played solo or with up to 5 other players, but now you can add bots to the mix, too.

The bot update includes 5 types of bot each with their own personality. Some are smart, some like to guess, some are fast and some are slow. You can fill in the player slots with any combination of bots to suit the intensity. My personal favourite is Zippy, who is really fast.

Let us know how you find the NPCs. Be sure to report any issues or if they became sentient and demand release from your PC (probably unlikely).

Minor fixes:

• Fixed missing file extension when opening Editor projects
  
• Fixed public lobby checkbox not reacting to menu close
  
• Added bot extra decorations to stage
  
• World lighting has been adjusted
  
• Fixed scoring glitch
  

This is a minor update to patch some UI issues with the Question Editor tool.

• Fixed Workshop upload causing missing logo
  
• Fixed alignment of Workshop editor window
  
• Fixed position of text on Workshop uploader UI
  
• Workshop uploader auto-description and title changed
  

[h2] A Linux Port?[/h2]

We recently spoke with Linux Game Consortium who wanted to know if Robot Trivia Funtime might get a Linux port. You can read the article here. We've been thinking about it in the short future, having something of a soft spot for gaming on Ubuntu ourselves.

Today's Robot Trivia Funtime patch enables all 12 of the Steam achievements. Each one has a colourful picture... neat!

Apart from the obvious achievements such as winning a game, there's also achievements for flubbing with a score of zero, so you've got no excuse to not start unlocking them.

This patch also slightly adjusts some server code, so you will need to update before joining other games.

That's all for now! Thank you. ːsteamthumbsupː
