I have published a new version of Wet Paper, the enhanced version of the Global Game Jam 2025 nCine game entry.

The game has seen many improvements since its original submission:

  • The codebase has been substantially cleaned up, making it a great starting point for learning the nCine API.
  • The ImGui debug interface has been rewritten to be more consistent and useful.
  • A (skippable) splash screen now welcomes you with the nCine logo. 😉
  • You can play with a friend, just like in the original version, or go solo.
  • A proper menu system has been added, fully navigable via keyboard or gamepad.
  • Controls are fully rebindable — assign any key or gamepad button to your preferred actions.
  • Game settings are saved on exit and reloaded on startup.
  • Match statistics are now saved while you play.
  • Bubbles feature a custom refraction shader, and the game view blurs when paused.
  • Music now plays both in the menus and during gameplay.
  • Gamepads will vibrate when you pop a bubble!
