New Trailer & New Key Visual
We have refreshed the official trailer and key visual for the Steam version of gogh, a "multiplayer, online, work-focused game." We will continue to evolve further in its second year.
Room Posting Function
As a 1st-anniversary update, we have newly added the "Room Posting Function."
Users can now save, modify, and open other users' posted rooms as their own multi-rooms.
This marks the first step towards making the Steam version of gogh a "work-focused UGC platform." We plan to expand user posting functions further in the future.
YouTube Co-watching Function "Watch Party"
As a new way to enjoy, it is now possible to gather in a room with everyone and watch videos together.
Since videos can be projected onto a screen within the room, you can enjoy the feeling of actually being together.
Solo viewing is also possible.
* YouTube Terms of Service and Google Privacy Policy apply to its use.
* WatchParty is a unique function where gogh synchronizes the playback position and status of YouTube videos played on each participant's device. It is not a function provided or guaranteed by YouTube.
* Some videos cannot be played.
Face Tracking & Expression Change Function
As a surprise for the 1st-anniversary update, we have added a face tracking function using gogh avatars. Please use it for gogh avatar streaming.
We have also added a function to change expressions via keyboard input. This can also be used for interaction with other players in multi-rooms.
* The face tracking function can be used in multi-rooms but is not synchronized with other users. Expression changes are synchronized.
Outfit Save, Hair Style Left/Right Flip
We have newly added an outfit save function that allows you to save and switch between your favorite outfits. Each avatar is granted three outfit slots, allowing for 27 combinations when multiplied by the nine avatar slots.
Additionally, the highly requested hair style left/right flip is now possible. This eliminates situations where you thought, "This hairstyle would be perfect if it were reversed..." during character creation.
* Outfit slots do not include hairstyles or face parts.
Rotation-kun
As an item to further enhance the freedom of room customization, we have added "Rotation-kun," which rotates items placed on it. We are currently considering adding various other gimmick items in the future.
Record-breaking 40% off for 1st Anniversary
