We've been Greenlit! Minor update #8. news - Friendship Club

Two weeks ago when we released The Wonky Wagon, we said the next release would be lighter on content. This was because we blocked out two weeks to do some marketing, emailing, press and things. Perhaps by pure chance, or perhaps by virtue of writing almost 40 personalised emails...

Timmy Bibble's Friendship Club has been Greenlit by the community for Steam distribution! Hurray!

Thank you to everybody who voted - this is super awesome and means the world to us. The main two things added to this build are loading tips and new Quick Draw countdown timer graphics. As for what we've been generally up to, the full changelog is below.

28th July - 8th August
DESIGN

• Overarching game interface / cognitive space / animation / world concepting. (What?)
• Character & team select concepting (as below).

ART

• New Standoff quick draw / countdown timer.
• "Hurray, we're greenlit!" graphic.
• Hats? (Either as above, or as below).

CODE

• Pro tips show on the loading screen.
• Fixed bug where bully mode countdown timer was sometimes purple in The Wonky Wagon arena.
