📝 Devlog: v0.2.0-Alpha Release

Hey everyone! 👋

We’re back with the v0.2.0-Alpha update for Valorant Roulette! This build focuses on making the app feel more alive and interactive while fixing some of the rough edges from v0.1. Thanks to everyone who tested the first alpha and gave feedback — your input directly shaped this update.

✨ What’s New in v0.2.0-Alpha

• 🎲 Team Roulette Overhaul → Now pulls agents directly from the database with optional role balancing to create more realistic comps.

• 🌀 Rolling Animations → Team and Agent Roulette now feature rolling portrait animations for a more exciting “spin” effect.

• 🔊 Sound Toggles (Global) → Rolling and final sounds respect your settings across all modes, not just Agent Roulette.

• 🛠 General Fixes → Improved settings persistence, cleaned up UI inconsistencies, and patched a few sound/visual bugs.

🛠 Current Focus

Right now, our main focus is making the core modes fun and reliable before adding new roulette types. That means:

• Smoother UI/UX.

• Consistent animations.

• Making sure settings save correctly every time.

🔮 What’s Next

We’re already experimenting with new modes and features for future builds:

• Gun Roulette → Spin to decide random loadouts.

• Strategy Roulette → Add chaos by forcing specific playstyles.

• Map Roulette → Randomize battlegrounds for custom lobbies.

• More QoL improvements → Cleaner menus, accessibility tweaks, and bug fixes.

💡 Keep the Feedback Coming

As always, your testing and comments help guide development. In particular, let us know:

• Do the rolling animations feel good, or too long/short?

• Does Team Roulette give balanced results when role balance is enabled?

• Are the sound toggles saving and working as expected?

• What new modes would you like to see prioritized next?
