• Removed Halloween theme
  
• Permanent Mute: Players you mute will remain muted even if they leave and re-join.
  
• Muted Players on Stage now visually show that they are muted
  
• Kicked players cannot re-join the room for 15 seconds, with re-kick time increases per instance for that room (e.g., 15, 30, 45 seconds).
  
• Increased size of room notifications.
  
• Added quick access buttons (Leaderboard, Profile, Invite) to the Quit Room menu.
  
• Fixed bug with "Down drinks" button spamming.

Added South America as a new region. On first launch, players will be prompted to select their region, which will be saved as the default for future sessions. Since it may take some time for all mobile players to receive the update, Brazilian players on the old version might continue using the USA server until they get the update or notice the new South American option.

Halloween theme

- Lighting optimizations for performance & visuals
- Improvements with positional audio from players in the crowd

- If a player on stage changed their profile it prevented the X button from being clicked and the timer would reset.
- Fixed the "toilet code" bug.

• Android cross-play support
  
• Performance improvements with generating avatar icons (in rooms and Avatar Editor)
  
• Bug fixes - text chat button being enabled/disabled incorrectly when joining a room

[IMPROVEMENTS]
- New visual effects - Vignette & Chromatic Aberration (also available in settings menu)
- If you upload a Stage Background lower than 1280x720 resolution it will now auto-resize for you instead of throwing an error.
- (Mobile) Game invite button now shows on the Player Invite popup if your friends.
- Room Language - If the Room Host changes it the Room language (which shows in the lobby) will change to what the new Room Admin is using.
- (Mobile) New players will now start with a random profile background image instead of the girl's eyes one.

[BUG FIXES]
- Clearing the Room Name whilst in a room would set the room name to empty. It now sets it back to what the room name was.
- Joining a room with players on stage sometimes their Profiles were not showing any information
- Clicking a URL link and then returning to the game would not update the mouse cursor to the default pointer
- Connection lost in lobby then trying to join your quick room would result in an endless loading screen

We have reworked a lot of the user interface (UI) to improve the overall experience of Comedy Night.
This update adds support for cross-play in the coming weeks (iOS & Android).

• Improved memory management reduces game load time by only loading the avatars content when needed.
  
• Higher quality textures for the Avatars
  
• Sending chat messages now supports clickable URL's as well, so for example if you talking about a YouTube video you can send that via chat and everyone can click it to open the video. Only certain URL's are supported to prevent bad links ie. YouTube, X, Twitch, Kick, TikTok, SoundCloud and a few others.
  
• Chat messages now display for 15 seconds instead of 5 seconds.
  
• For Face Masks you are no longer forced to upload an image that's exactly 500x500, it will auto resize the image to 500 x 500 for you.

• Your player badge in the bottom right corner now includes an icon to show it's clickable

• You can now see which of your Steam friends are in a room without having to go into the room.
  
• The lobby will now auto-refresh without you having to click "refresh lobby" each time a change happens.
  
• For new players it will generate a room in the lobby with a random room name for you so you can easily start your own room.

• We've added new Player Profiles which you can view by left clicking on a player.
  
• You can follow players, this is to support friends across devices, so if you follow an iPhone player and they follow you back then you will be able to send them invites to rooms. Note! If you follow a Steam player and they follow you back but you are not friends on Steam then you will not be able to send them Steam invites to the room. (You have to be Steam friends as well in order to send Steam game invites. This is a Steam restriction)
  
• There is also an option to rate a player (bad, good, excellent)

Pressing Tab or the Players icon next to the Microphone will now open a new Room Players panel as seen in this image. It gives you an overview of who is the room and the positions match where they are seated in the room making it easier to manage a room as an Admin. Left clicking a player will open their Player Profile and tapping the "+" buttons will open a new in-game room invite screen.

• Redesigned Leaderboard screen
  
• Player steam profile images are now visible
  
• New Monthly Leaderboards (Overall Leaderboard still exists as well)

Click on your Profile in the bottom right corner and select Stage Backdrops) This can even be done whilst in a room.





Select backdrops you have already created or upload a new one. We do some checks at upload to ensure that it ties in with the comedy guidelines.
