Playground

1.5.0

• Bowling: spin! The left and right arrow keys now curl the ball. It runs straight over the oily first stretch, then hooks toward the side you spun, so you can start wide and swing back into the pocket. The dotted trail on the lane bends to show where the ball will go, and the help line shows your spin.
• Q and R turn your aim now (the arrow keys were aim before). A and D still slide you across the lane.
• Everyone sees the hook. Players on an older version still see the roll, but without the curve.

1.4.0

• New: bowling. Put a lane down from the Playground menu ("Place a bowling lane"): it runs away from you with ten pins at the far end. Walk onto the approach and press E to bowl.
• A and D slide you across the lane, the left and right arrow keys turn your aim, Space starts the power bar and Space again rolls. Pins knock into each other, with ten frames and the usual scoring (strikes, spares, bonus balls).
• Everyone with Playground sees the same pins fall, hears the crash, and sees a score board for the lane. A strike gets announced to the others nearby.
• Menu: "Place a bowling lane" / "Pick up your bowling lane". The ground has to be fairly flat, and one person bowls at a time.

1.3.3

• The Playground menu shows how many other players here have Playground ("2 others here", in cyan when anyone's around), so you can see if there's someone to start a game with.

1.3.2

• Tag and Hide and Seek: whoever was picked as "it" or the seeker last round isn't picked again for the next one (as long as there's someone else to pick), so nobody gets stuck with it twice in a row.

1.3.1

• Hide and Seek: seekers really can't see the hiders' names now. (The name tag is moved out of the player when it spawns, so the old way of hiding it missed it.) Speech bubbles still show, so talking gives you away.

1.3.0

• New game: Hide and Seek. 45 seconds to hide while the seeker's screen is dark, then 5 minutes to search. Get close and press F to find someone. The starter chooses whether found hiders join the seekers or are out. Seekers can't see hiders' name tags.

1.2.7

• Tag: "it" runs 30% faster (was 10%).
• During the countdown everyone is told what to do: runners get "RUN! ... starts chasing in 4...", and "it" is told to wait for the count.

1.2.6

• Tag: the star no longer stays over a player after they've left the round, or once everyone has left.

1.2.5

• The mod has its own GitHub repository now: https://github.com/faytleingod499/Playground
• Released under the MIT License: you're free to copy, change and share your own versions.

1.2.4

• Whoever is on a swing leans with the seat, so they stay square to the chains as it swings.

1.2.3

• A new swing set goes up right in front of you, so it's easy to put exactly where you want it.

1.2.2

• You sit on top of the swing seat instead of halfway through it.

1.2.1

• The swing seats are blue.

1.2.0

• Swing set: put one up from the Playground menu. Two seats; pump at the top of each swing to go higher, and at full height let go to fly like a blue mushroom.

1.1.0

• A small star button opens the Playground menu. Drag it anywhere, like the EtherPets paw; it remembers where you put it. J still works.
• Every window uses the game's font and the same look as EtherPets, Hugs and More and Wolfpark HUD.

1.0.0

• First release, with Tag.
