Dashboard UI Updates

The title screen graphic will now appear in the background of all menus. This is great for visuals and consistency of the user interface. Also updated fade animations and input component visuals to match the rest of the UI.

Share Code Feature

The biggest change in this version is the addition of a share code feature. This will allow you to share a session code with friends. Simply click share from the server browser and you will see the following. You can either copy the share code to your clipboard or copy a link to share with friends. This link can be used to directly join a session on the web version.

Once you have sent a share code the other player can input this code on the Play screen. When they click Play they will join the session shared with them via the share code.

News Update

The News feed has been updated with links to each Itch.io dev log for the release details. Also added is a loading spinner to display while we are fetching the data.

NPC Speech Update

Static text for the NPC characters has been super boring to look at. I've updated both now to have animated text for their lines. I recorded a nice .gif to show you but the upload limit is too small for me.

Server Browser Update

Apart from the share code feature I've added hero selection to the server browser UI.
