Update 3 Now Live!

We're really excited to announce our latest update is here! We have focussed on as many of the things that you have been asking for as we were able to get to this update. Here are the patch notes. We hope you enjoy and please do let us know how you're getting on with Cricket Club!

Leaderboard Overhaul

• There are now new leaderboards for both individual and team scores in each game mode across both Club and Test level

• The leaderboards will now display in-game. They are shown at the end of the match and you can also view up-to-date boards at any time by pressing the menu button.

• Posting of scores is now automatic (as long as you have entered a player name)

• You can still manually post your score at the end of an innings if you haven't set your player name yet

• You can now always see your own leaderboard rank even if you aren't in the top 10

Some New Faces Into The Bowling Attack!

Ok, technically they all have the same face, but we gave them different coloured hair so you can tell them apart! Introducing: R. Collinge - Left arm fast-medium. Bowls a full nagging line on the off stump. Patiently wait for some width outside off or dispatch him back over his head? C. Grimmett - Right arm legspin. Drifts it in then rips it past the outside edge. Slog sweep anyone?

New Fielder Behaviours

• Fielders will now leap and dive towards balls that are tantalisingly out-of-reach

• The keeper no longer has super human reflexes when catching balls that have taken a large deflection off the bat

• Improved the way fielders attack and orient themselves towards the ball

• Fixed various bugs with the new moving fielders introduced last update - including removing their ability to summon inhuman bursts of speed!

Trophies Are Up For Grabs!

We're introducing the first of the trophies that you will be able to win to start decking out your shed. Individual High Score Trophy

• Bronze - 50+ Runs

• Silver - 75+ Runs

• Gold - 100+ Runs

Team High Score Trophy

• Bronze - 100+ Runs

• Silver - 200+ Runs

• Gold - 300+ Runs

Settings & Controls

• There is an updated settings menu where you'll be able to find new settings to tinker with

• You can now adjust the height that the controller attaches to the bat handle to make it more comfortable for players of different heights. You'll find the option in the settings menu.

• The trigger button no longer pauses the game. You can press the menu button to pause and view the leaderboards. The button is automatically blocked during delivery so you won't accidentally bump it while swinging!

• An icon now appears above the bowlers head to show where you need to look to trigger the next ball. You can toggle this off in the settings menu.

Taking Centre

You can now rearrange the position and orientation of the pitch to suit your own room setup. You do this in the game by 'taking centre'. When you're out in the middle stand at the location in your room you would like to be the centre of the pitch, and look in the direction you would like the pitch to run in. Now touch the bat to the ground and hold down the trigger button until the icon appears. Your preferences are automatically saved so you only need to set this up once. Along with the above we have continued to improve the physics simulation and squashed a number of bugs with this update. See you on the leaderboards!
