Hey there,
We're excited to announce the release of the 1.0 update! This update includes a number of smaller fixes and improvements, but our main feature with this update is the addition of 27 new languages:
Bulgarian, Chinese, Czech, Danish, Dutch, Estonian, Finnish, French, Greek, Hungarian, Indonesian, Italian, Japanese, Korean, Latvian, Lithuanian, Norwegian, Polish, Portuguese, Romanian, Russian, Slovak, Slovenian, Spanish, Swedish, Turkish, Ukrainian (English & German were already present)
That’s right, we’ve translated the content and the game itself (including subtitles) for all these new languages, so more people can enjoy Super Sketchy Party in their native language.
We also have a system in place, that helps to expand the content for all languages: So let’s say a player adds a new German phrase to the database via our content submission system. This phrase is then auto-translated into all the other languages we support. But here comes the catch: We won’t add this phrase to that language database right away, but add it to a second separate database, where you can vote on the quality of that phrase. Only if the phrase gets a significant number of upvotes, it gets added to the general database with all phrases for the game. This way we ensure the quality of the phrase database, while also giving you, the community, a way to add more content to the game.
This update also marks the end of our early access journey. We’ve been in early access for about 1,5 years now and thoroughly enjoyed the experience. It gave us the opportunity to get the community involved early in the lifecycle, while still improving on the overall experience. In the early access period we’ve added matchmaking, custom player sound effects, awards, cards, narration and so much more. As of now, we are proud of the scope the game and are satisfied with its features, which is why we’ve decided to finally fully release the game.
Thank you for your continued support and we hope you enjoy the new update!
