    I declare this nation, an EightBit nation.

    Welcome to the EightBit blog! From here on the EightBit team will be using this blog to keep you guys informed and announce new features or bug fixes. To commemorate this announcement we have a new release that we’d like to share with you.

    Graphical Updates

    We’ve added a few new clothing options and added some new location backdrops…

    • Restaurant background texture has been improved.
    • Added backdrops for airports and movie theaters.
    • Added khaki pants
    • Added long sleeve shirts

    Better Tweets!

    We added a link to your EightBit profile on checkin Tweets and made the checkboxes after building a character more noticeable.

    On the horizon (coming soon)

    To all of you fine people that checked in at SXSW this year: We owe you a cowboy hat. Look for it on your awards tab soon.

    A lot of you have told us that you need a way to see more locations when checking in. We’ve heard you loud and clear and we’ve added a location search feature. Just type in the location and we’ll try and find it for you.

    We are already hard at work crafting fun stuff for you guys to look forward to. Follow us on twitter @EightBit to stay updated and to send us your feedback or bug reports!

    Love,
    Addison, Amadeus, & Courtney
