We were very excited to have Western Press featured as round 3 of PAX Australia's Omegathon! It's always fun to watch people leap around on dance mats, and Omegathon was no exception. So thanks very much to all the contestants, and of course PAX themselves!

As a result, we've just pushed a patch live that changes the way Western Press detects and polls devices. What this means is that it's now much easier (and more reliable) to get new devices running in the game. So if you have a PC dance mat (or controller) that the game doesn't get along with, send us an email to info@walkwithkings.com.au and we should be able to get it working! Finally, don't forget that Western Press supports custom characters and environments via Steam Workshop! With thanks to the folks at DrinkBox Studios, we created Guacamelee's [url=http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=669925762]Juan Aguacate[/url] as an example. So if you've got an itch to see your own pixel creations duke it out, jump on over to the tutorial on YouTube: https://youtu.be/qhmBq9WP7xM And our follow up guide for adding animation and sound variants: http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=679243918 And now, for the changelog!
