Waifu Showdown 0.3.1.1
Added 2025-08-01 12:55:18 +0000 UTCHello everyone, this is an updated post for the new update of Waifu Showdown where you can find the information about latest features and bugfixes, so let's get started.
NEW FEATURES
The new walking mechanic has been added into the game. From now on player and opponent characters will not find themselves already in a starting position after starting the match. Instead, you will have to get closer to your opponent and press an E key to initiate a grapple. After that you will be able to play the rest of the match as usual.All new mechanics are also transitioned through new animations, there are now new animations for walking, idle state and starting a grapple.

BUGFIXES
The main reason for the delay of this update. Occasionally I get reality checked on how difficult it is to keep new bugs in check and to figure the issues that cause them. This time two out of the three main bugs of the game were fixed, them being a hint sheet being displayed when not supposed to and the weird camera positioning after starting a grapple was fixed.
The third one being the fact that sometimes after starting a grapple the characters will not perform the intended animations in sync, this one will require much more to completely fix than I initially thought. But you can avoid it by doing a simple thing - start a grapple while both characters are in their idle positions.
WHAT'S NEXT
Even if this post is not about the upcoming August update, I still want to spoiler the general info. The next update will focus on new content and gameplay features. New content means either new moves or new characters or even both and the gameplay changes will affect some movesets that are currently one sided for your opponent disadvantage and are meant to benefit the player, more changes are planned as well, let's wait for the update preview.
Thank you very much for your support and stay tuned for the next update!
