🛠️ App Improvements

  • Unveiled the new home (games 🎮) tab, now featuring game carousels with expandable curation lists like "Puzzle" or "Action" games!
  • Revamped our game details page with updated visuals, new play and matching buttons, social proof of how many people love your game, and many more improvements! 🤝
  • Added in fun room sounds that pop 💥 so you can easily know when someone leaves, enters, or is reconnecting even without looking at your phone!
  • Shuffled avatar features around in the editor to look better and make more sense 🎨
  • 🖼️ Now clicking an avatar anywhere in the app shows the user's profile — quick and easy!
  • Upgraded our main page logic: now it auto-scrolls back to the top when you re-tap the tab’s button on the loaded screen 👆

🪲Bug Fixes

  • 👥 Updated the friend suggestion logic to recognize when you've added someone as a friend elsewhere in the app.
  • Fixed a crash that was happening when auto scrolling to the top on the friends tab if you're already there and have no friends.
  • Busted a small bug where the "friends" label occasionally wasn't showing on friend profiles 🐛
  • 🎤Fixed some voice chat start errors by fixing the feedback screen logic!
  • Updated our TikTok social link in the app so everyone can stay up to date on all things Dusk 🔗

💻 SDK Improvements

  • Built out our behind-the-scenes game tracking to prep for some exciting new developer features coming soon! 🌟
  • Fixed the dev UI mobile layout to account for bottom toolbars on some devices & adjusted the minimum dimensions on landscape 📱
  • Added Vue game template built by oats 🚀
  • Updated example user avatars to ensure you’re inspired by the newest content!
  • Vite plugin now includes logic that allows importing not only external package but also files from external package (somePackage vs somePackage/innerFile). This was done by Pixel Pincher! 🥳
