addedRoll FeedbackWe noticed it was difficult for newcomers to realize where they were going wrong with their first rolls. To add more clarity, we've added roll feedback that will appear right when you release your ball and throughout the replay. It states how good or bad the angle of release was, how much spin was applied to what direction, and the speed of the ball
changedLane VisualsWe've changed the colors of the lane to help convey topography by changing grass color depending on elevation. Now the lowest grass on the green will appear as a lush green where the higher grass will appear more golden/yellow
fixedMiscellaneous Changes/FixesFix bug where splash could appear in the middle of lane
changedMiscellaneous Changes/FixesUI containing profile names now get refreshed when you rename a profile in the profiles menu
fixedMiscellaneous Changes/FixesMake it harder for a roll to count as valid. Now it needs to be within the lane for a full second before it is counted against your score

Roll Feedback

We noticed it was difficult for newcomers to realize where they were going wrong with their first rolls. To add more clarity, we've added roll feedback that will appear right when you release your ball and throughout the replay. It states how good or bad the angle of release was, how much spin was applied to what direction, and the speed of the ball

Player Characters in Background

Now if you're playing with more than one character, the characters who are not bowling will appear in the alley behind the active bowler

Lane Visuals

We've changed the colors of the lane to help convey topography by changing grass color depending on elevation. Now the lowest grass on the green will appear as a lush green where the higher grass will appear more golden/yellow

Miscellaneous Changes/Fixes

  • Fix bug where splash could appear in the middle of lane

  • UI containing profile names now get refreshed when you rename a profile in the profiles menu

  • Make it harder for a roll to count as valid. Now it needs to be within the lane for a full second before it is counted against your score

  • Increase the time it takes before an invalid roll stops. This should make going for the Interference and Team Player achievements a bit easier

  • Improve performance of the game end view

  • Add sound for toggling the lane view

  • Fix visual issues on some extras' ears
