The biggest Hot Dog Hero update yet has launched! Version 1.1 provides many new features and additions as well as some necessary bug fixes.

The full list of changes:

• Gameplay
  • Improved scoring system (combo multiplier is now capped, and added a small perfect combo multiplier as well, also capped)
  • Added accuracy score (depends on the quality of your presses)
  • Added unlockable medals based on accuracy score for each song
  • Displaying additional information at end screen (accuracy, medal, next medal, full combo)
  • Hit sound feedback is now pitched depending on the time of pressing the button (higher pitched if pressed too early, lower pitched if pressed too late)
  • Extended hot dog lengths for longer notes to prevent ketchup or mustard dropping on the floor even if pressed perfectly
  • Swapped position of "Play again" and "Back to Menu" buttons (at the end of each song)
  • Improved charting for "Electronic Battle Theme 5"
    
  • Improved game performance
• Graphics
  • Every song now has a unique background (meaning 3 new backgrounds have been added)
  • Improved color palette of default background
  • Showing new logo on main menu screen
  • Logo in main menu is now animated
  • New UI graphics for buttons, scrollbars, toggles, sliders and drop downs
  • "Play" button is now better highlighted (different color scheme, bigger)
  • Rearranged main menu UI elements
  • Added frame for song cover images
  • Changed Next and Previous Song buttons to arrows
  • Next/Previous Song buttons are now highlighted even when using arrow keys to scroll through songs
  • Play button jiggles when moving mouse cursor near it
  • Added animation for getting better and worse medals at the end of each song
  • Medal is now shown in main menu next to song cover image as well
  • Added accuracy display in-game
  • Moved Combo display to the top center of the screen in-game
  • Added combo animation when hitting a note (and thus getting a higher combo) in-game
• Settings
  • Control remapping is now possible by pressing the desired button (instead of choosing from a 300 item dropdown list)
  • Added secondary controls for Ketchup and Mustard
  • The button that instantly restarts a song can now be remapped
  • The button that instantly exits the current song can now be remapped
  • The button that leads back to the main menu from the settings screen now only displays "Discard" if there are any unsaved changes
  • Swapped Ketchup and Mustard button remapping in Settings (Ketchup is now shown first and mustard second) to match in-game hierarchy
  • Added option to disable moving background
  • Added option to dim the background
  • Added button to reset all in-game progress (Cannot be undone!)
  • Added Visual Offset option
  • "Input Delay" is now called "Input Offset"
  • Added new Calibration menu that hopefully will help in adjusting your visual offset and input offset
  • Added Window Mode option (meaning you can play in full screen mode, exclusive full screen, etc.)
• Bug fixes
  • Fixed bug where a song sometimes did not end
  • Fixed bug where ketchup or mustard droplet spawn position kept slowly sinking
  • Fixed bug where notes were sometimes slightly off (especially in fast songs), hopefully this also helps distinguishing between two adjacent longer notes
  • Fixed a bug where a very narrow gap between two background elements could be visible
  • Fixed bug where Credits or Help text shown didn't fit in the scroll panel
  • Fixed bug where longer notes could despawn while still visible on screen
  
  While this update mainly provided quality of life, accessibility and bug fix changes, further updates (with more actual content) are planned. Thank you for playing Hot Dog Hero!
