🎲 Rolling Into a Whole New Level - Interactive Board Game Mechanics!
🕑 Added 2025-08-14 14:39:27 +0000 UTCHey everyone!
This update is huge - not just under the hood, but on your screen too. Alongside the usual round of bug fixes, the extension just took its first big step into interactive gameplay territory.
Here’s the new magic:
While watching certain synced videos, the extension can now render a player on a virtual board game - right on top of the video!
The player moves across the board based on dice rolls you get while watching.
The very first video using this system is now live, and it’s a full board game experience.
What’s on the board?
Tiles with tasks you have to complete.
Buff tiles that... Don't want to spoil anything :)
Debuff tiles. Not spoiling as well.
Snakes and Ladders style shortcuts - some tiles launch you forward, others send you tumbling back.
Right now, only one video supports this feature (there is new icon for this type of videos), so it’s free for everyone to try. But as more videos get synced with these interactive mechanics, this will become a premium feature.
Speaking of premium - remember the conditional actions feature I said a few months ago would be going to the paid tier? It’s still free for now… but maybe it’s finally time I make this unpopular move. 😉
This is just the beginning for gameplay inside videos, and I can’t wait to show you what’s coming next.
Also, I created a community chat as I realized that free members probably can not comment or message me directly so in the chat you can report bugs or ask questions. So far no one responded to my first message so feel free to join.
