THE PATCH NOTES

Update 1.8.0 - Friend Request

Main game:

  • NEW LEVEL: ":))))" by sugosugii, THE BEAT WIZARD, and [-^v-]

  • Achievements now have unique icons thanks to our new artist Party Rock!

  • Invisible paddle is now its own option instead of being tied to a costume. C-ミ B-ミ has a new costume as a result of this change.

  • Added some new VFX to Gritted Strings

  • Added controller light events to Heated Battle! ~ Disco Bakery, Fragmented Existence, Move Right Along, and Night Echo (Future Funk Mix)

  • Renamed "Circle snap" to "Circle lock" to better indicate what it does (and also fixed it not working in the new options menu)

  • Fixed crash when exiting the atom map at the same time as entering a level

  • The capital L character in the main font is now more distinct from the lowercase l

Editor:

  • Decorations no longer accept an empty string as an ID

  • Added #TRUERANDOM option for spritesheet decos (the regular #RANDOM option prevents the same frame from being picked twice in a row)

  • Added side indicators to "blocks" built-in font

  • Fixed colordither displaying invalid colors

  • Fixed Exponential eases having a discontinuity at the start or end

  • Fixed moving holds in a multiselection with left and right arrow keys not moving the ends

  • Improved behavior of long song + artist names in various menus

THE OTHER STUFF

See what artists featured in Beatblock have been up to. Music is the lifeblood of rhythm games, so go support the ones making those tunes!

FINAL NOTES

As summer ticks by and we inch closer to Beatblock's full release, some of the side projects we've been working on related to Beatblock have begun to be put in motion- expect some fun news once we hit 2.0! For now, we hope you enjoy :)))) and take a moment to share some joy with your friends.
