A fish pool, a smoother interface, and ninety-two changes you can notice

I build Bitiverse on my own. It is a free pixel-art MMO in your browser, one persistent world, and this is the week behind it rather than a pitch.The week in one line: ninety-two changes players can actually notice, the ones you would have seen if you had logged in every evening.What you can do that you could not before. Dig a fish pool on your own claim - ten vials of water, and the edge draws itself with the same code that lays a stone floor. Get paid for voting: one vote on the site is now an hour of play tokens. Rubble stacks a hundred to a slot, which anyone who has hauled a dungeon floor will read as the quality-of-life change it is. A whisper finally reaches a name with a space in it, so Regular Human can be spoken to. And the recall potion became an ordinary potion, which quietly closed a hole one player found the hard way: buying extra charges used to leave you holding something you could neither drop nor deposit.Most of the week went into making the game smoother. A couple of players reported low frame rates, one of them at fifteen frames a second, and that turned into a long stretch of measuring before it turned into fixing. The frame report now times itself by section and names the graphics card and the render setting. The interface draws from one canvas instead of walking its tables every frame. The minimap looks its claims up in a map rather than searching for them. The fast render setting keeps its menus readable.Elsewhere it was words. The guild log now says what it actually keeps, and the ledger and the recruiting advert agree about what the colours are for. A player read our own interface back to us and had no idea what two sentences meant, which is the cheapest bug report a developer can get.That is the week. If you have not tried it: free, no download, no account needed, and guest play works. Come break it and tell me what fell over.
