GLITCH

The effect is the feature.

Over two dozen effects and a stack of presets from the Heavy Saber engine. It shines on full-color pictures from the web. Roll nine, reroll the one you nearly liked, set how strong it is and how it blends, then wear it.

WATCH

Rooms that watch together.

A room's clock keeps everybody on the same second. Pass the remote around, or leave it on free play. The queue is right there in the Media panel for everyone to see, and items can be skipped.

Hit Big Screen and the video fills the room with everyone standing on it. Hit it again to shrink back, or go full screen.

SLIDE

Gliding, done right.

Hold the right button and glide, with echoes of your avatar trailing behind you. It paces itself on classic servers, and on a HexPalace server movement gets its own budget. Everyone in the room sees you glide.

AUTHORING

Build right in the room.

Doors and spots drag right in the room, with their settings beside them. A single click adds the video player to any room. Hide a door and it's saved to a file with its place and scripts, ready to bring back or reuse in another room.

THE SERVER

A completely modernized server is coming.

Other Palace clients are compatible with it, so nobody gets left out. Self-host it and use the HexPalace client, and we can add new features for those users, while it keeps the same feel for people who are happy where they are.
