Hello everyone again! Sorry for being so busy and not posting much lately, I'll say more at the end of this post. But lets start with something juicy!

Packs have finally been added to SP Struct's Guppy's Quest builder! This might not be the most flattering looking pack, but it is because it's from my ancient and old Java version of a project I was working on. People who have stuck around with me for a while will remember this, as it's from around 2015/2016! But anyways, this addition of packs feature allows you to mix many different tiles, entities, and other elements together to create weird and fun new levels. A lot more will be added to this soon!

Another feature I wanted to add for a while is an online chat! When you're in a lobby with friends, there's already a ton to do on ME-OS. But if someone isn't on voice call with you and needs to type, it would be annoying to go in and out of ME-OS. So now we have a functional chat built into the taskbar! Not only that, but you can style your text and even use emotes. Much more will be added soon, but this is just a nice little thing to mess with now and has already been super useful during testing with friends and beta testers.

Another thing to check out is the ton of new additions to MEVST! Firstly there is a new interactable piano keyboard attached to the app, allowing you to see what's being pressed and allowing you to click the keys as well. Not only that, but we also added banks! Banks allow you to pick much more instruments from large collections. In this case, I added the classic midi sound bank and you can see me use it in the video at one point. One thing I didn't get to show in the video (because honestly I dunno how I would) is that you can play music for your friends online through MEVST! So if you want to show off your cool piano skills, whip out your midi keyboard (or computer keyboard if you can somehow lol) and start jamming!

There's currently a lot more coming to this update, just a lot of it I want to keep a surprise. But we already have 5 new unrevealed Jump Wars characters fully implemented (more coming to the update though), 2 new fully implemented Keyccordion Dawn songs (also more songs coming), so much QoL and other features it's crazy. If you want to check out more of the stuff, I post very often on the ME-OS Discord!

But now for the more boring stuff... I haven't been posting as much lately because I've been extremely tired (work, health issues still, and of course developing the game) and don't find as much time to market/share information about the game. I think I generally am pretty bad at marketing and showing off my game in general, so if someone has any tips I'd love to hear them haha. Even now I'm sure there's more I can show and tell, but I want to get back to working and making cool stuff for you guys.

As a side note, sorry if I have been reviewing stuff less often lately, I want to get back to it a lot! Time has been a poopyhead and not allowing me to do as much as I want. But there's so much great artists here (of all kinds as in music, visual, etc.) I really want to get back into telling you all how great your stuff is!

Anyways if you read this far as usual thank you very much, it means a lot to me. I hope to reach more eyes with the stuff I do, but I really appreciate everyone old and new who stops to read these posts.

Stay awesome!
