This translation was made by Coqito5! Currently it's using the alternate font as I'm figuring out how to make letters like í fit better with the game's signature font. We are also tweaking how some menus work (so that "collected" on the multiplayer summary screen can be pluralized, for example), but there's a little more to it since some parts look different depending on whether you play locally or online.

Hey y'all, Vadym here This update adds support for Ukrainian (translated by me and Ci8ird), Russian (translated by Nick, DamirLut, and with smaller contributions from a handful of people), and we'll be looking into adding more languages as we figure out who can help with translations/proofreading. It also adds a handful of non-localization tweaks and fixes. Localization Translating games is hard work! But not just the translations themselves - making a game translatable takes effort unless you have planned for it from the start. For example, many UI elements in Ghost Croquet consist of several

Novelties: We now have Rich Presence! {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/25743226/c9ef603fb7d69e52decc239390d03463ee837c26.png You can now tell whether your friend is sitting in a multiplayer lobby, trying their best with Arcade, or just stuck on Canyon. Tweaks: "Coyote time" is now ~100ms (6f) instead of ~66ms (4f) I don't think most people will be able to tell the difference. Pressing Jump a couple frames early when swimming is now allowed. This also means that button-mashing the Jump button in panic will work slightly better. It is now a little easier to jump out of the water. Fixes: Fixed an error when qu

After 5 years of hard work, radio silence in devlogs and a couple rewrites of the whole game code Ghost Croquet is finally OUT! For those of you wondering why did it take so long - the main reason is both me and Vadim being incredibly busy with other projects. Ghost Croquet has always been a side thing for us while we've been doing full-time work in the games industry. But hey, we’ve made it! So let us guide you through what is new :) New Game Mode{STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/25743226/4d22cea4b0ed450003513b51de0bfef02b884879.gif Introducing a new game mode: Bomb Pong!

Hey guys! We released an update! Cool, right?.. well, perhaps not the coolest, seeing that we were going to leave Early Access within a month but are releasing this update 8 months later. There were a few reasons to this: The game didn’t sell as well as expected. Or, to be precise, did not sell well at all. This can be written off as our own fault (for not finding a publisher), with the game also failing to receive basically any coverage by any major outlets, despite the efforts. Regardless, not a particularly motivating experience. Partially as result of above, the game’s budget was successfu

Additions: The game now supports up to 4 players locally. http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=757521726 Number of players for local sessions can be adjusted via the options menu (under "remap controls"). The game now displays previews on map selection screen. http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=757527375 Preview "thumbnails" are now stored alongside the maps in directories. Thumbnails are generated for maps upon saving. If you've published a Workshop map, update it with the same file - thumbnail will be packed in automatically. Changes: You can now load maps
