If you drove yourself mad building computers in Minecraft, Pight’s redstone-inspired puzzling is an affordable palate cleanser

Big Walk patch addresses voice volume complaints with restraint: ‘We consider it an important part of the game’s design that you can only hear players who are close to you’

The puzzle game Big Walk features a proximity voice chat that has received mixed feedback from players regarding volume levels, especially for those with quieter microphone setups. In response, developer House House released a patch to enhance audio, making quieter voices more audible at close and medium distances, while maintaining the original distance at which voices fade. The patch does not increase the range of voice communication or allow for separate adjustments of voice and background audio levels. Players have reported varying experiences with the voice volume, with some adapting quickly while others find the volume drop-off challenging.

‘Sorry about this!’ Big Walk is already fixing its biggest complaint

Big Walk, a co-op puzzle game, launched yesterday and peaked at nearly 50,000 concurrent players on Steam, receiving "Very Positive" reviews. Players are enjoying the gameplay but are facing communication issues due to difficulties in hearing each other through the in-game proximity voice chat. A mod on GitHub has been created to address this by adding a voice volume slider that allows players to increase voice chat volume up to 200%.
