Since launching just over 6 weeks ago we have been working flat out and have rolled out over 16 updates to the game, many of these updates were based on all your feedback.
Some of the major changes since launch are:
Room Admin controls
Added ability to rename a room
Kick a player off the stage
Kick a player out the room
Ban a player from the room
Enable/Disable voting in Dual Mic Rooms
Make a room private
Added option for Room Admin to Introduce Next performers to the stage
The game quickly spread around the world and expanded from just Comedy to all sorts of things like script readings, music, poetry, self-help sessions as well as live prank calls! To cater for this we implemented the following:
Globalization
Added MacOS X support
Added Linux support
Added 2 additional servers, American and Australian
We now support 9 languages with Korean and Japanese coming soon
You can now filter rooms by languages
We introduced the Music lobby which is very popular with Twitch Streamers
Reduced memory usage for low-end machines
Options Menu - added more settings for low-end machines
Audio Options
Implemented Normalized performer and crowd audio
Added In-game volume controls for all audio (game SFX, music, crowd, & performers)
Added ability to Mute individual players
We have notified Unity to try to get the Kraken Mic issue fixed, they were able to reproduce it and have logged it as an issue to fix on their side. You can help us by upvoting the issue here on Unity's website:

Player Content
New Player Setup browser to make it faster to pick the items you want
Free Content - New heads, hairs/hats, bodies and clothing variations, with more female content
Enhanced stage performer animations
We've also just released support for premium content which helps us cover the costs of ongoing support for the game and server costs and keeps the game price low.
Thanks for all your support, suggestions, and encouragement. We have a long list of new exciting features we will be adding over the next few weeks that we can't wait to share.
