Ultimate Chicken Horse News

[h2]Boo! It’s the spookiest month of the year! [/h2]


We want to feature your spooky Halloween/Autumn-themed custom levels in Ultimate Chicken Horse! So build and send us your custom levels, and we’ll pick 15 community creations to feature in the game.

Submit your levels to us by publishing your level and sharing the level code in the Steam comments by 11 PM PST on October 16. It can be a Party or Challenge level.

To make a custom level, go to the Treehouse lobby. Open the pause menu and click the arrows to change your game mode from "Party Mode" to "Free Play Mode". Then go to the underground area of the Treehouse and move to the left to the "Blank Level" section. Now you can make a level!

Need some inspiration? (These are only suggestions!)
- Halloween classics: Jack-o-lanterns/pumpkins, scarecrows, bones and skulls, night time, magic
- Beasts, monsters, and creatures: Ghosts, zombies, werewolves, vampires, mummies, witches, bats, cats
- Autumn/Fall: Thanksgiving, red leaves, cozy fires, camping, fireflies, warm drinks
- Delicious snacks: Candy, candy apples, chocolate, other sweets
- Locations: Graveyards, haunted houses, witch huts, dungeons
- Colours: Orange, black, white, purple, green
- Anything else you can come up with!

Hey party animals!

In this update, we're going to change how invite codes for players' lobbies work in Ultimate Chicken Horse.

[UPDATE] The lobby invite code changes are now LIVE!

Previously, your invite code would stay the same no matter what. In this update, you'll regenerate a new invite code every time you host a lobby, unless you save your invite code so that it stays the same between games.

[h3]How do you SAVE your lobby invite code? [/h3]
- Open Ultimate Chicken Horse, press "Play Online" and host a lobby.
- When in-game at the Treehouse, open the pause menu and click "Lobby".
- Click on the **** to reveal your 4-letter code.
- If you want to save your code for future games, click the checkbox to "Freeze Invite Code". Your code will stay the same until you uncheck the box (and the new update is released).



It's out, hope you get a cool code!

Hello everyone! We’re back after a few months of work on Ultimate Chicken Horse with version 1.10.06 on all platforms.

We addressed several server issues that came up during the Shellebration Update, changed how voting works on community-made custom levels, and added a new song to the OST. Plus some other minor changes.

Read below for more, and join the Ultimate Chicken Horse Discord to keep up-to-date with all things Chicken and Horse!

[h2]Server refactor[/h2]
After the Shellebration Update, we had more players online than ever before. (Wow, thank you!) However, our servers were not prepared for the sheer number of people enjoying the game. This resulted in players experiencing many server desync issues like endless loading screens, getting stuck in the party box, placed blocks not showing up, and lobbies randomly shutting down.

We’ve just completed a server refactor to address these desync issues and prevent them from happening in the future. It also gives us the ability to add more servers to high traffic regions whenever we have a big influx of new players. :)

We also addressed a country-wide connection issue for players in Korea. As of today, everyone in Korea should be able to connect and play online again! Thank you for your patience and bug reports - there were many Korean players who helped us solve the problem by sending us their player logs. ❤️

If you experience any server issues or bugs, please report them to the developers in the Ultimate Chicken Horse Discord.

[h2]Downvotes removed from custom levels[/h2]
We removed downvotes from the voting system for custom/community-made levels!

Downvotes were not being used in a way that was useful or kind to our community, which warranted their removal. If you don’t enjoy a level, you now have the choice to upvote it or ignore it. (Note that you can still report levels that break our community rules!)

[h2]Ultimate Chicken Horse OST[/h2]
The game’s soundtrack just got a new song! It now has the “Shellebration” track which plays during the Metro level.

[h2]Quality of life changes[/h2]
We received feedback that the game's initial volume was too loud, so we reduced it by 20%. (Now the Horse noise is less of a jumpscare!)

That’s all for now! We’ll be monitoring the server situation and keeping an eye out for any new issues. Have fun out there. 🙂
