UPDATED:
- MicroWorks is free to keep, now and forever. Get the gang together!

- Custom emotes - party pass owners can now customize their emote wheel and upload custom emotes that everyone can see!
- Merged chat & voice mute into a single block feature. Blocking a user, aside from muting them, will also block their custom assets, such as custom emotes. User blocks will persist even if you quit the game.

Party Pass
The Party Pass is a single one-time purchase DLC that unlocks all features that are not part of the free version of MicroWorks, and also grants you with some dope digital bonuses.
Everyone who already bought the game before the F2P transition will receive it for free, but if you haven't gotten the game yet, give it a check!
Developer Projection
Boy... preparing this update was tiring. But nevertheless, we're very proud and happy with how it turned out! It feels like the definitive edition of our little game, and we feel we've managed to strike a good balance between turning the game accessible to everyone while allowing ourselves to continue earning from it (at least a little bit).
Thank you to everyone who patiently waited for this update through all these months, and we truly hope it doesn't disappoint.
Now what are you waiting for? Let's get playin!
