Release Notes

Tracking the evolution of connection

v1.8.0

Version 1.8.0 Update

What's New

🎴

Spark Deck Sync 2.0

We completely overhauled the physical deck sync experience. It now features immersive haptic feedback, custom audio cues, and instant stance validation so you know if your answer is in the majority or the minority.

🔥

The Inferno Gateway

Accessing the deepest level of the deck isn't easy anymore. The Inferno now requires a dramatic, biometric "hold-to-unlock" security mechanism, wrapped tightly in our heavy Neo-Brutalist design language.

📊

Spark Deck Admin Command

The admin panel received a massive structural overhaul. Meet the new Macro Dashboard tracking total global submissions, live active polls, and unique device scans all clearly visible atop huge new Brutalist data cards.

🎉

Realtime Confetti Broadcast

Hosting a live party? Admins can now instantly detonate a confetti blast across all physically connected player devices simultaneously using our new Supabase Realtime integration.

Improvements

Discord Event Analytics

We integrated a robust, invisible fire-and-forget webhook system that silently pings our internal Discord whenever players scan cards, unlock the Inferno, cast votes, or activate the Spotify mood playlists.

Contextual Spotify Playlists

Polls now properly decouple their Spotify URIs on the fly, ensuring that custom playlists tied to specific targeted regions or seasons play correctly.

Fixes & Stability

  • • Fixed a frustrating visual bug on mobile where the heavy 8px Neo-Brutalist drop shadows were being clipped by the edge of the viewport.
  • • Resolved an issue where the sync UI could potentially freeze or hang if an admin hadn't configured any live polls for a specific level.

Cinematic Welcome Experience

Fixes & Stability

  • • Fixed a race condition in the Telegram authentication flow that caused "Invalid initData" errors on slow cellular connections.
