Did you notice the new screenshot on the Chop Chop Guys homepage? Something beautiful has appeared there.

It's a completely updated Darts level. Like Hamlet, it has changed both externally and internally. And we think it's for the better. If you want to try everything with your own hands, then hurry up and launch Chop Chop Guys on Steam. The fresh version 0.5.3 with the updated level is already available for testing.


ːsummer2021actionː The first and most noticeable thing is already visible in the screenshot. Real art has appeared on the level!

ːsummer2021actionː See that strange robot holding a bouncer in the screenshot? Now, it will randomly turn it at random times.

ːsummer2021actionː And to make aiming more convenient, a trajectory will now be drawn in flight, showing where Bob will fly after dashing in the air.

ːsummer2021actionː Hitting a hundred now accumulates a Streak. You can accumulate up to x5. The streak disappears if you hit anywhere other than 100.

ːsummer2021actionː And lastly, take a closer look at these balls around the target. Maybe they're not just there for no reason?

Be sure to write in the comments what you think about the updates on this level!

We've identified an issue with the Color Floor gameplay where your final position is mostly determined by the last few seconds. We're addressing this by introducing two new features:

Instead of your final points being equal to the number of colored tiles at the end of the round, we now calculate points three times during the round, at the end of each progress bar.

We've changed the target points grading to emphasize precision. This adjustment is an intermediate step before a more significant gameplay and aesthetic overhaul in the next update.

The spawn point is now randomized after death, reducing the impact of spawn location on your chances of winning.
We've enhanced bot behavior, making them smarter—prepare accordingly!
A minor fix has been implemented for shooting direction.

The rate of exploding egg spawns now varies based on the number of players remaining on the map, ensuring a fairer experience towards the round's end.

Fixed an issue where players could fly away when spawned inside the beam.

Fixed missing "blood" decals on the Bobsleigh map and in certain areas of other maps.

Improved bot behavior to reduce instances of getting stuck on the map.

Enhanced visual quality in close-up camera scenarios, allowing characters and level geometry to softly fade in and out.

• Dismemberment now reflects the location of damage more accurately. For example, stepping on floor spikes will result in legs being torn off first.
  
• Slightly reduced loading times between map transitions.
  
• Fixed initial character rotation.
  
• Addressed some action inconsistencies following the 'Esc' menu.
  
• Changed the initial tiles animation on the Volcano map.

• The state of show/hide nicknames now persists between levels.
  
• Added the ability to rotate your character in the main menu using the mouse, in addition to A/D or the gamepad stick.
  
• Fixed visible gaps between character parts in certain situations.
  
• Increased the internal physics tick rate to reduce ragdoll jitteriness.
  
• Fixed issues with passing through bouncers at high speeds.
  
• Enabled emotes during the intro countdown phase.
  
• Camera now properly resets on respawn.
