Changelog
What's changed in Quick Draw: The Drop, newest first. Many of these came straight from players and testers. Send yours to info@blackchad.io.
Guides for new duelists
- New How to play, What is a good reaction time? and FAQ pages.
Training complete, clearer results
- Your three training duels now end on a TRAINING COMPLETE screen with all three times, your record and a button into your first real duel.
- The margin under the times reads plainly, such as 592ms FASTER or 12ms SLOWER.
- The Global leaderboard shows a compact YOUR PLACE row, or NOT RANKED YET before your first ranked time.
- Opening Legends sends any wins that were still waiting to sync.
- Fixed achievements announcing themselves again every time the game opened.
- Fixed one tap occasionally saving the same duel twice.
- On Android, the system back gesture on a result now leaves the same way the on-screen button does.
No more waiting out a duel
- If the strike dot is up for 2 seconds with no tap, the duel is a loss marked NO DRAW. Leaving the game while the dot is showing counts the same way.
- Your full duel history count now shows on Profile.
- Scrolling screens no longer slide under the phone's status bar.
- Stricter display name filtering, checked on the server as well as in the game.
- A new Send Feedback option.
A fresh leaderboard
- The leaderboard was reset for the new app builds, so every time on it now was set under the current rules.
- Your recovery code is now kept in your phone's secure storage on iPhone and Android.
- In a browser window too small to stay fair, the game shows WINDOW TOO SMALL instead of letting you duel.
- The strike dot always fits the window, even if you resize it during the standoff.
- Fake profiles can be hidden from the leaderboard and from matchmaking.
Fairer duels and a smoother game
- One rule decides every duel. A tie goes to you, and a hit under 100ms is a TOO FAST foul.
- New win lines under VICTORY, so results don't repeat the same words.
- Portraits for the Ghost Masters and the training opponents.
- Undo after sending a friend challenge.
- Larger touch targets, better contrast, full keyboard focus on the web, and a lobby that fits small phones.
- A desktop layout that keeps the game in a comfortable column.
- Delete My Data in Profile removes your player record, leaderboard entry and sent challenges, then starts the game fresh.
- A recovery code on Profile lets you move your profile to a new device.
- Fixed best and average times not always saving after a run of quick duels.
- Fixed the menu music on return visits. It now starts on your first tap.
Challenge links everywhere
- Every shared result carries a challenge link, so whoever opens it can duel your time right away.
- On iPhone, challenge links open straight in the app.
