We've been teasing this update for a while and it took much longer than we thought it would, but it is finally here!

The entire UI have been overhauled using a brand new UI system that allows us to deliver a much more functional, visually pleasing, and performant system. We also have added tons of great new features like Hotseat, Mouse Over Actions, and more!

New Minimal UI:

  • Clean minimalistic theme with the use of images for easy visual navigation
  • Reduced screen clutter to keep the interface out of the way of the player and focused on the game
  • Much better resolution independence, supporting massive 4k resolution and all the way down to sub 720p
  • Overhauled spawn system with drag & drop spawning, and 3d object preview
  • Much better UI performance, even while using higher resolution assets
  • New player color selection, that shows you where on the table you will be sitting
  • Use of drop down menus to nest information until you need it
  • Logical 'X' close button instead of the previous inconsistent close layout

Hotseat Mode Added:

  • Hotseat mode will allow you to play a game with up to 7 other people on the same computer
  • Information is hidden just like if you were playing on separate computers with an easy to use turn system

Improvements:

  • Loading in custom content now has a progress indicator giving a percentage completed
  • You can now specify the name of the game mode in Host Options
  • Hosts can now change their color from white
  • King crown icon next to the host's name
  • Harder to accidentally right click an object when trying to use the camera by adding delay check
  • Scrolling the UI no longer zooms the game in and out
  • Camera responsiveness has been improved

The complete update can be found on our website! If you want to get the latest news on development feel free to follow us on Twitter. We recently added a Wiki to our website, help us flesh it out with some more content!
