Hey everyone! This is a small update to the game so that it uses the newly re-written lobby server, with a dash of Brazilian Portuguese and a quality-of-life change to dice to spice things up!

IMPORTANT: You will need to install this update in order to continue playing multiplayer with others!

The big reason this update is happening is because I’ve recently completed a re-write of the game’s lobby server (previously known as the master server), which is now written in Rust instead of Javascript. If you’re interested in seeing the source code for the new lobby server, the repository can be found here!

If you would like to see the progress that has been made with the v0.2.0 update so far, feel free to have a look through the previous devlogs:

• Devlog #1: New Foundations
• Devlog #2: So many options…
• Devlog #3: Happy Birthday!

I’ll also be posting future updates on my fancy new website as well, so be sure to check in every so often! You can also follow me on either Twitter/X or Mastodon, as I post the updates there as well.

Until next time!
