The team are still after as many clips as possible showing the difference between seasons with physics so they can find out what's changed. I enjoy this meme though lol

This is a really tricky one to solve because what's actually happening is -

The server decides who wins.

It decides based on the first person's game to send a message to the server to say "I have grabbed the crown" and then the server to confirm "yes, they have grabbed the crown".

So why is it possible for you to see that you grab the crown before they do?

Lag/De-Sync/Ping - The position of player's that you see is not the same thing that the other player's see. When a player moves, a message is sent to the server, and then the server sends that message to all other players.

Unfortunately, if you don't have a great connection, or the other player doesn't have a great connection, the amount of time to get the positions of all other players could mean that you're seeing players noticeably behind where they are.

So... when you see someone win, but it looked like they were behind you... they were actually the first one to grab the crown...

I love this and I personally wanna see it in game lol. Amazing. Bee has sent to the team.

Can't believe they've done this

It's a cool idea - but I think you're underestimating how long it takes us to get people's support codes and then manually gift them the costumes on our support tool. We're all really busy and can't really dedicate so much resources just to gifting out thousands of costumes manually.

I'd love to do giveaways of like 100, or 1,000 costumes at a time, but it's such a MAMMOTH admin task to actually collect support ID's off of all of those people and then set it up.

Yeah, we don't have any sort of notification or messaging system like that in the game at all yet, definitely something we'd like in future

We'd love to do in-game challenges for prizes.

I wish that's how the Magic Dragon - Lil Yeety one had worked.

Unfortunately, though, it requires Dev work to add in a framework for challenges and for awarding costumes in that way. I hope it's something we can add eventually, but we haven't had capacity to do that yet with everything else we've been working on.

So, we're going to continue doing a mixture of all of the above via social media.

We'll probably still do the other ways even after in-game challenges and rewards are added (if we do add them).

They work really well to market the game and grow the social media channels.

This is one of the cases where - we hear you loud and clear... but that doesn't mean we're going to action your feedback.

What do you mean?

Both versions of the mouse costume will be in the shop for everyone. Majestic Mouse (The gold and red one) and the Mouse King (The one in the store now).

Yes we treat streamers specially because they do a lot of promotion for us and bring lots of extra people into the game. It's a mutually beneficial relationship, so we give them some costumes, kudos and crowns from time to time.

I mean, we literally have done shows that have had no team games in them. We had one called Gauntlet Showdown for example:

Headline: "Fall Guys Season 2 Adds Solo Playlist With No Team Games"

We take it seriously and we're investigating those issues. Even if we're not replying (unfortunately, we don't have time to reply to everything) we're still here reading it all!

Reddit can sometimes be a little bit of an echo-chamber of people with the same opinion. For instance, on our Instagram, 60% of the audience said they were excited about Fall Ball Cup.

It's hard to cater to such a huge audience with lots of different player types.

You can't please everybody all of the time... so we try to mix things up and make sure all of our players are accounted for.

I spent a year trying to be a full time youtuber before I got into the game industry. I managed to get up to 150k subscribers, which is pretty decent. It was sooooooo much work though. It looks really easy and fun but you're putting in crazy hours, for very little return. I was making far less than minimum wage. It was fun too, don't get me wrong, but I have soooooooo much respect for content creators that manage to stick at it and make it their livelihood. Then, when I joined the games industry, I saw that streamers/youtubers playing your game can completely change the fate of your game. The difference between an indie game having absolutely no sales, and going viral, can literally come down to youtubers/streamers playing it. I worked on games such as Surgeon Simulator, I am Bread, and Pigeon Simulator, before Fall Guys - and all of them, owe a lot of their success to creators.

It's not that we 'think it'll be good PR' it actually IS good PR and we have data and analytics to back it up. You can track streamer views against sales of the game and against concurrent players. If you look at Among Us, or the new hype around Rust - Streamers 100% can massively impact the popularity and success of a game. It's no harm/cost to us to give them a little something extra to make their streams more fun, and if it helps them create better content, then it is a win all around.

You're not losing anything because we give them something extra. You're actually benefitting too, because the better the game does, the more people play it, the more we can support it, and then the more content you get.

A streamer being gifted a costume they really wanted, live, on stream, is really fun content for their audience.

Hey everyone, the costumes will each be 3 crowns top and 3 crowns bottom. They will be featured one after the other, starting on the 12th - so will last about a week in total! Cheers!

Yeah Rat King or "Mouse King" as he's called in game, will be in the store, both variants
