Update 4.0.3: Watch Party Is Back! & Kick Penalty Adjustments

ambr

ver 4.0.3

Thank you for playing gogh on Steam!

Watch Party is back!

We've also made several improvements to make multiplayer more comfortable for everyone.

■ Watch Party Is Back!

Watch Party was temporarily suspended while we addressed recent security concerns. After implementing the necessary measures and confirming its safety, we've brought it back! We've also added a cache-clearing feature.

We're sorry for the inconvenience caused by the temporary suspension, but Watch Party is finally back!

We hope you enjoy Watch Party again‼

■ No More Join Sounds When Quickly Reconnecting or Rejoining Multiplayer Rooms

If you repeatedly reconnect or rejoin a room within a short period due to connection issues or other reasons, the join sound will no longer play. No more worrying about bothering other players! ‼

■ Adjustments to Kick Penalties

We've adjusted the penalties for being kicked from multiplayer rooms, making them a little less strict.

In v4.0.1, we increased kick penalties as part of our measures to address sensitive avatars. As a result, warnings became more likely to appear when players were kicked.

However, kicks can sometimes happen due to misunderstandings or mistakes. We felt that overly strict settings could cause unnecessary anxiety, so we've reviewed and adjusted them.

We'll continue making improvements so everyone can feel comfortable and safe in multiplayer rooms.

Thank you for your continued understanding and support in keeping our community safe and welcoming!
