Hey there again, Happy new year to all of you and welcome back! There are a few things we have improved since the last time, so lets get right to it.

The Content Update

Were pretty confident with our content by now, but we always wanted to let the community expand on our base content. Thats why until now you were able to send in new words, that could then be reviewed by us and added to the main game content. We are now expanding on that concept of player agency by letting you vote on content.
With this feedback we can get a better picture of the submitted content, especially when we dont speak the language. But thats not all: When a word is submitted, we translate that word into a few other languages, but dont add it to games content immediately. Instead we put these words in a queue, where they can be judged.
Were doing that, so all players can benefit from the submitted content, but we know that many phrases that sound good and make sense in one language, are completely unusable in others. But since our russian pun skills are not exactly up to par, well try this approach together with you. You can find the new feature in the Content Submission submenu in the mainmenu.

Controller support

Our vision with Super Sketchy Party is to support as many devices as possible and controller support is a step into that direction. With the release of the Steam Deck around the corner more so than ever.
But when you play Super Sketchy Party, you quickly realise that you dont really need any kind of controller for the main game and that has been our approach with the implementation as well. So as of now you can control the main menu, host a game or change the settings. That should be just enough to get a first impression if this is something worth spending more time on.

Stability & Bugs

Since the last update weve adressed a few minor bugs to improve the overall experience. We also found a more major bug, where sometimes players would get disconnected from a running party. If you encountered this problem, we apologize for the inconvenience, since we want to keep the game as stable as possible and hope you give us another shot in the future.

Whats next

Well keep a close eye on performance and stability, but our next feature will be exiciting for all of us. Weve noticed that during the rounds, the players barely need to interact with each other. Thats something we want to change with the addition of cards. Here is a sneak peak:

Super Sketchy Party is a Drawing Guessing Game, not unlike Pictionary. What is great about Super Sketchy Party is that you can either play it locally with your friends on your couch or play it online with your friends with a big screen device (like a computer or an internet ready TV) and your smartphone.



Super Sketchy Party supports crossplay with multiple friends in the same place and online combined in an easy way. Players can join a party locally or from anywhere with their own devices (no streaming required).

The game offers multiple languages, and the players can contribute content for all players in all languages to be enjoyed. Every player, who owns the game can submit their own phrases in their own language. If we and the community have enough phrases for a new language, it'll be added to the game.

The game comes with a native client but can also run on any device via its website. The game is identical and only requires a copy of the game on Steam.

Note: Only one player needs to own the game to host a party.
Note: Currently only English and German is being offered.
Note: macOS offers a client for the website, not a native client. A Steam login on startup is required.
