addedGolf is a new mode where teams compete to see who can get their ball into the hole first. Currently, there is one map set in a charming pine forest, consisting of three holes that correspond to three rounds.
addedOur players remember that the ball in the Football mode was far from ideal. In the new version, our programmers have improved its synchronization with other players, making the football experience more comfortable for everyone. This change also applies to the Golf mode, as players need to roll the ball there too.
changedIn addition to the new mode, the team has revamped rice. Previously, players didn’t understand why they needed to collect rice, as it had no visible effects (in reality, collecting 10 rice increased the sumo wrestler’s speed by 25%). We worked on several prototypes to find the most fun option.
addedThe most exciting update is the stamina mechanic. We increased the rolling speed of the sumo wrestlers, but now moving in this way consumes the stamina bar. Eating rice restores stamina, making rice a very valuable resource in the racing mode and adding an extra layer of decision-making and resource management for players.
fixedAnd that’s NOT ALL! We fixed numerous bugs, adjusted graphics settings, added a mini-map to the racing mode, and implemented the mechanics of stances.
