Update notes for version 2.0.9
Not only do we have a guest music track by *Paul Oakenfold* that will be featured in this month's challenge
but we also made the challenge different this month to make it more interesting!
The goal is to score as high as possible before the track ends.
To play this new challenge you need to update the game to the latest version (2.0.9).
This update also includes a few tweaks and bug fixes:
* Tweak - SpeedUp text fades away quicker
* Tweak - Hitting a floating powerup will count as a successful shot and increment the streak
* Bug fix - racket stops being able to hit the ball

Racket: Nx is coming to Quest!
We're very happy to finally announce that Racket: Nx will be available on the Oculus Quest.
The port is almost done, it looks and feels almost indistinguishable from the PC version, and we've been having tons of fun playing it on the Quest!
Here's a little teaser we put together :)
Patched!
Here's what's in it:
Balancing
- In Arcade mode there is now more Wave variety when reaching Wave 50 and beyond. The game will draw from a larger Wave pool when reaching these high difficulties.
- In Multiplayer, the Sling (Tractor Beam) is now limited to 2 seconds (instead of 5) before the ball switches to the opponent. This is to avoid abuse and keep the game pace high. It also the mitigates advantage players had of having the first shot in a new Wave containing a Powerup, where by abusing the Sling players could line up their shot perfectly and take the Powerup.
Bugs
- Fixed ball losing Powershot on Oculus when touching the trigger immediately after the hit.
- Fixed Oculus playspace center when chaperon is not setup.
- Fixed Wrecking ball stuck in floor bug.
- Fixed Nuke Powerup heat marker staying when game is over.
- Fixed streaming camera that could be placed inside the wall.
- Fixed Splash damage pellet scale bug.
- Fixed problem playing read-only mp3 files.
- Fixed a few UI bugs where certain menus would wrongly persist.
- Fixed a bunch of other small bugs.
Other stuff
- Added option to force SteamVR or Oculus through the config (VR SDK: force_openvr & force_oculusvr).
- Added option to switch network port through config.
We still have one open bug concerning the Star rating given in Solo Insane stage Sets. For some players, 3 Stars are given even when not finishing the set in the required time.
If you have any information about this bug, please contact us here or on Discord.
That's it for now!
