I've added a timer in the game, so you can see how long you've been able to survive a given match. I'd like to do more with this timer in the form of new achievements (e.g., break X number of blocks in Y minutes) and maybe even leaderboards, but I'd like to hear from the community first on what y'all think!
I did, however, update the current achievements, so you now have to play / survive on each field for at least a minute. It's still pretty easy to get these achievements if you fiddle with the settings, but that was always the point: I want you to try out different options!
Good news, Bub Block finally has official online support! This comes with a HUGE caveat, however, as the online mode in its current form is still very buggy and limited. If the Remote Play Together feature was already working great for you, then I would recommend sticking with that. But if you want to try out the new, "proper" online mode, here are the details:
In the game rules screen, select the Invite button to invite Steam friends to play with you.
There are currently no public lobbies; you must play through Steam invites.
Online players will have a Wi-Fi icon next to their Bub avatar to denote that they are not local players.
Multiple people can be on the same computer and still play online.
If you run into any issues, please post them in the Steam forum so we can investigate. Thank you!
Dodge the spinning blades while trying to trap your opponents with blocks! Each round is fully customizable, from how fast the blades move to how many blocks you can carry to the ability to turn into a ghost and seek revenge after you die.
Please note: this is a local multiplayer game only! However, the Remote Play Together feature works really well. We know that is not a substitute for a true online mode, though, and so that is something we are working on.
Share your ideas with us for more game modes and features you'd like to see. Enjoy!
