We just shipped an update, here's what's new!

• Featured Event Door - The Rec Center now has a door that highlights and takes you to featured community events. That's right - fun stuff created by other Rec Room players that you are invited to!

• The very first Rec Room featured event is hosted by the one and only mamamonkey! She invites you to play "Sardines", a fun social game that - from our tests - tends to result in a lot of giggling!

• There will be several more events this week! Check the posters in the Rec Center...
  
• The "featured event" system is fairly basic right now... we wanted to get a starting point out there and start using it. We would love to hear your feedback on how we can make it better/cooler/faster/stronger/etc. Hit us up with suggestions, complaints, praise and non-sequiturs on Reddit, Discord, Steam, or Twitter:

• New "Skins" System - show your style by unlocking and applying skins to the stuff you use to play games like Paintball, Quest, and more. Choose the skins you want to use in your Dorm Room:

• Everyone gets some basic default skins, to get the fancier stuff check out the new...
  
• Weekly Challenges - check your watch to find a Weekly Checklist that joins the Daily Checklist. Complete the Weekly challenges to unlock fancy custom skins! This week's skins are paintball-themed. Next week there'll be different challenges with different unlocks. So if you see something you really like the look of, be sure to complete the challenge that week! Challenges will repeat, but not often... so you might be waiting a while for your next chance...

• Updated New User Tuturial - new users will get an updated tutorial that (we hope) is a little clearer and teaches some more useful stuff (like how to change avatar clothes).
  
• Added some skin and hair color options! Also moved the "swatches" used to change them to the sides of the mirror.
  
• Re-added "invite" button at the top level of the People menu, so it's easier to quickly invite your friends again! Note: We plan to re-add the "who's talking" indicator to the watch next...

As always, thanks for playing Rec Room and for being awesome! Please let us know what you love/hate/kinda-like/would-probably-change-but-isn't-that-big-of-a-deal-really!

We just shipped a minor patch update that fixes a bug that was causing a number of issues, the most visible of which was the friends list having out-of-date information (eg: friends appearing offline when they really are online, or appearing to be in one activity when in reality they're in another activity).

We just shipped an update, here's what's new!

• New Paintball Map: "Spillway" - The sun's gone down at Rec Room's hydroelectric facility, and the night crew has swapping their tools for paintball guns! This new map features lots of interior cover spaces and a stealthy nighttime setting for extra sneaky splatting...

• New Paintball Gun: Grenade Launcher - Get your splash damage on and take out multiple targets at once with the new Grenade Launcher!

• New outfit: Technician - Hardhat and coveralls for all your hydroelectric facility inspection needs. Play paintball on the new Spillway map for a chance to unlock these items!

• Custom Private Games - with this update, Rec Room members can create and run custom private paintball games. Want to use the new Grenade Launcher on River or Quarry? Well, you can! Want to play with Sniper Rifles only? You can do that too! We plan to extend this system over time to allow customization of more games...

• Vote for next map - you can now vote for the next map in public games. Select "Vote" on the scoreboard and select which map you want next in the watch.
  
• Paintball - rebalance teams - you know how it kind of sucks when you start a 4v4 paintball map, then two people from one team leave? Well, now anyone on the larger team can choose to switch to other team mid-game. The button to do this is in the Scoreboard page of the watch.
  
• Multi-profile support - this update adds support for multiple profiles connected to a single Rec Room account. This is a members-only feature. Use the computer in the Dorm Room to create a new profile, then restart Rec Room to see the profile selector. Please note that moderation events (e.g., reports, timeouts, bans) are applied at the account level, so a penalty on one profile applies to all profiles.
  
• We did more performance optimization work - so you should be seeing smoother framerates across the board. If you have really bad performance, please don't hesitate to contact us: support@againstgrav.com. We have a known issue with some systems that we are trying to track down.
  
• Fixed bug where game wouldn't shut down cleanly. Sorry about that!

Come give it a try and let us know what you think! As always, we welcome your feedback positive or negative. Help us make Rec Room more awesome by telling what you love/hate!

We just shipped the "Rec Center" edition update. Here's what's new!

• Rec Center - We gave the Locker Room a fresh coat of paint and re-branded it as the "Rec Center". As we evolve this space it is less of a "locker room" with each change, so we decided to reflect that with the name.

• Updated Rec Center layout - we hope this makes it easier for people to find all the various activities. It also makes it easier for us to add new stuff in the future.
  
• New "basketball court" area in Rec Center

• We made all the doors fancier! And added stairs! And more!
  
• Totally revamped the Watch Menu

• Watch now fully supports physical interactions (tapping with a finger) as well as laser pointer interactions.
  
• You can now use the watch menu without dropping the tool you're holding. No more dropping your paintball gun to click a button!
  
• New visual style
  
• We brought back watch hands that show the time!
  
• Streamlined reporting - we unified the behavior of the Stop Gesture (aka "talk to the hand") with the new "Stop button" (in the watch). "Stopping" a player makes it quick and easy to mute and ignore. Then you can optionally report, which will also initiate a vote kick round.
  
• Simplified "report reasons" - report reasons are now Misc, Underage, Cheating, and Harassment. Please use "Misc" for things like AFK or mic abuse.
  
• New stream mixer for updated Streamer Cam. Find it in Advanced Settings in the watch.
  
• You can now configure private activities. This currently works for Paintball, Dodgeball, Paddleball, and 3D Charades. Change settings via the Scoreboard before you press Start.
  
• Added Leaderboards to more activities!
  
• The Lounge music is now back to the correct easy listenin' vibes.
  
• Paintball - fixed a bug where player could be invincible while teleporting.
  
• More networking optimizations.
  
• Lots of bug fixes and improvements.
