v1.1.4 Update: A change to public rooms, and bug fixes
Version 1.1.4 is out now. Some songs have new lyrics and example drawings, public rooms work slightly differently, reporting problems to the developer is easier, and several online issues have been fixed.
You can still join the same room as players who haven't updated, but the songs with new lyrics and drawings will look different for them. For everyone to see the same thing, please make sure everyone's game is up to date.
Draw-along songs
- Some songs have new lyrics and new example drawings
- Fixed an issue where English songs in Echo mode could cut off the start of a line or play a snippet of the previous one
Public rooms (one thing you can no longer do)
- A room you make public can no longer be switched back to private. We're sorry for the inconvenience
- Why: switching between public and private mid-session can leave the room list out of sync with the real state of the room, which leads to problems like a room that shows in the list but can't be joined
- If you've made a room public and want to play privately again, please create a new room. Before a room goes public, you'll be asked to confirm
New
- When you join a room late, you can now see up to the last 20 lines of the lobby chat from before you joined
- If a new version is out and you're still on an older one, a notice appears when you create or join an online room
- Important news also appears at the top of the board in the top-left of the title screen (the board that says "… draw-along songs on board!")
Reporting problems to the developer is now easier (we'd appreciate your help)
- Notices that appear when something fails (you can't get online, saving or exporting fails, and so on) now have a "Report a problem" button
- For problems that don't show a notice (the game freezes or won't progress, and so on), press "Report a bug" on the title screen or in Settings
- Pressing it opens a report form that goes to the developer (2P START), with a diagnostic log already filled in. Just write what happened and send it
- The log contains the game version, your PC's specs, and what happened in the game just before. It does not contain your name, chat messages, or Steam ID
- This log helps us find the cause sooner and fix it sooner. We'd be grateful for your help
Bug fixes
- Added a fix for some PCs getting stuck on "You're not online right now" (if it still happens, please tell us with "Report a problem")
- Fixed several cases where the game could get stuck waiting for someone
- Fixed doodles in the free sketchbook sometimes not showing, or disappearing, when you joined a room late
If you run into a problem, please let us know with "Report a bug" on the title screen. We also post news on X (@2P_START).
