Announcing the first update for Louie Cooks! We've heard your feedback that many people faced problems with their microphone not being picked up by the game. The game already had a system in place that should dynamically re-calibrate the ingame audio-settings, but that wasn't enough. We're sincerely sorry for everyone who had a bad experience because of this! The upcoming patch introduces an extended microphone-settings-screen:
The screen now shows the volume & pitch from the selected microphone-feed. The fill amount of the bars also gives you a good idea of the required volume or pitch to repell the respective cuties. If the bars don't easily fill up and stay in the red area or you don't feel comfortable with the required loudness or pitch you can now calibrate the game! Pressing the "Calibrate"-button opens up a calibration-window which requires you to sing/shout in a high voice as loud as your comfortable with for 5 seconds. The average volume and pitch picked up during these 5 seconds are then used to adjust the game to your liking. The game also automatically saves these settings so you don't have to recalibrate every time! For the "Quick Game" mode we've also added a button "Play without mic" that disables all microphone-requiring cuties with one click. Sort of a short-cut if you don't want to open the cuties menu and manually deselect them :)
