Hey we hear you, there are some bugs with multiplayer. This patch addresses some of the more major blocking ones and adds some quality of life things. Restart Steam to start the update. I haven't touched this project in quite awhile, and it took me like 4 hours to even get the project running and building to Steam, but I think all these new players will motivate a few patches and who knows - maybe even some new levels. We plan on adding a better finish cam in the next patch. If you are running into issues, it would be great if you could make a post on the community hub detailing what issues you are having. Be as detailed as possible - if you can reproduce the issue please let us know the steps. Also - please tweak your camera settings if things feel weird! Invert it, tweak the sensitivity, make use of the follow cam (shift key)! Thanks for the support, keep on rollin'
Full patch notes:
- Fixed a softlock where you "lose your mouse" if you use the chat while viewing the post-match leaderboard
- Fixed a similar softlock but with the pause menu and the post-match leaderboard
- Removed chatsharp.dll so people will stop thinking its a virus
- This means the global chat window from the online multiplayer menu no longer works
- Added multiplayer instruction text where the global chat was
- Disabled battle mode, we will be working on stabilizing it before re-enabling it.
- Added extra messaging to the end of online coop regarding the status of the match
- Removed abilities from online hubs, this could be related to load issues and should just be safer for now
- Made it so that text box with jumbled text stops showing up at the beginning of multiplayer matches (hopefully)
- Multiplayer level select now starts on coop levels rather than hub levels
- Added some new library art

GET READY TO ENTER A NEW ERA OF PHYSICS PLATFORMING
Polyball is a modern take on classic ball rolling games such as Super Monkey Ball, Marble Madness, and Marble Blast - while taking cues from games such as the Sonic series, Trials, and Mario Kart.A BIT ABOUT US...
The first full release from digital design practice Studio Monolith, Polyball is an experiment in low-poly visuals and open-ended game design. Our approach with the project was to make the kind of game we used to play, something that had both casual appeal and a limitless competitive ceiling. It was also a genre that we felt hasn't been adequately adapted to the modern world of game design. Our vision was simple: build a game that's easy to pick up, hard to master, and fun both on and off screen....AND A BIT ABOUT POLYBALL
There's a lot to do in Polyball -- Challenge yourself or a friend to one of over 60 levels included in the initial release, with plans for many more levels via free DLC. If you've got some friends over and are looking for something to play, Polyball's splitscreen multiplayer promises a good time. With classic modes like Battle and Circuit Race, as well as a multiplayer version of the single-player experience, Polyball promises to be a must-have party game.CASUAL, COMPETITIVE, OR BOTH
With global leaderboards built right into the level select menu and pregame screen, you can see where you stand among the worlds best and race against their ghosts. If you're more interested in beating your friends, check out the friends-only leaderboards. Collecting shards during your single-player journey will unlock a vast array of customization options, from different ball models to particle effects. This customization carries over into online multiplayer matches as well as your high-score ghost, with local multiplayer having its own version of the customization system designed for split-screen play.FOR THE PEOPLE, BY THE PEOPLE
If you've mastered every challenge we put into the game, take a look at the Steam Workshop content to face a whole new set of challenges. Community made content, from multiplayer battle maps and circuit tracks to customization options and single-player levels, will bridge the gap between developer and player as well as provide a steady stream of new content for you to experience. Steam Workshop gives the players a voice, allowing for the mechanics and level designs of Polyball to stretch far beyond what we had initially put into the game.FEATURES
