2009-06-28Player profiles, class portraits and more, oh my!

I've added player profiles, which are slightly similar to the existing Profile page you have, except that they're for other players, and they show a slightly different set of information. So, anywhere you see player names, you can now click them and see that player's profile.

Filipe has sent in eight new class portraits (four for each class), as you increase in level you'll notice that your class portrait changes. While this serves little purpose aside from looking cool, it does look cool.

AtomicSnarl has also sent in 3 new monster images which are now up.

Your Inventory page should now render quite a bit faster, however this'll probably only be noticeable if you have an especially large number of items (or a very slow computer).

Finally, a few corner cases with dialogs have been fixed. For example, if you're viewing the description for a set and you click on one of the set members, it now opens in a new dialog within the same page instead of opening a new page (like it did before).

2009-06-11RSS, what a mess...

Apparently most of you haven't noticed (or cared), but Game! has had an RSS feed of the news for quite awhile. In fact, it's had it for so long that the DTD for the RSS standard it was using (0.91) was removed, which made some clients start exploding. So, I've updated the RSS feed to RSS 2.0, which is six times trendier and otherwise mostly the same, but slightly reduces client explosions. Since I can't tell if nobody cares about the RSS feed or if it's just that nobody notices it's there, I've added a redundant RSS icon in each news update which points to the RSS feed, which complements the standard markup to tell the browser there's an RSS feed for that page. My theory is that people don't notice the latter (Firefox indicates it in the URL bar, for example), as it seems that every other page sprinkles redundant RSS links in the actual page. Beyond that I don't really have any good evidence either way, but we'll see soon enough. In the mean time, you could discuss the matter in the forums, if you were so inclined.

2009-06-10More art!

5 new pieces of art have just been added.

Also, in rather unrelated news, when adding additional items to your list at the Swap Shop, the extra dropdown now appears at the top of the list rather than the bottom, which should make larger lists easier to manage.

2009-06-01Healer upgrades

Thanks to Kariloy, the Healer is now actually a Healer instead of an Inn. If that last bit there about the Inn didn't make any sense, you should read the next paragraph.

You may not remember this, but originally the Healer was actually the Inn. Shortly after adding stamina, the Inn was swapped out for the Healer, as you didn't actually regain stamina by resting at the Inn. However, the original artwork for the Inn continued on, as it was sufficiently ambiguous.

2009-05-29Email alerts!

Based on popular demand, Game! can now send you email alerts! Basically, this means that when you receive messages in Game!, they can also simultaneously be sent to your email address. Nobody likes spam, so this feature is off by default, but you can enable or disable it in your player preferences on a per message type (Campground Raids, Player messages, Swap Shop, and Market) and per player basis. Also, messages are now generated when someone makes an offer on something you have up at the Swap Shop, as well as when they rescind an offer on something of yours.

Email alerts are batched up every 5 minutes, so if somebody buys 100 items from you at the Market in quick succession, you won't get 100 emails, just one (with all of the messages in it). In an unexpected twist, if there's no new messages, no email will be sent.

In semi-related news, you can now update your password and email address via your player preferences. It's worth noting that these are still per account and not per player, I just didn't want to clutter up the character selection screen.
