Happy New Year! It's been a busy month and we're kicking off 2026 with a packed update. GMs can now invite players directly to their games and set minimum player requirements with automatic rescheduling. We've also improved the recording workflow, added more payment flexibility, and squashed a bunch of bugs.
🎯 GM Player Invites
GMs can now invite specific players directly to their games - perfect for assembling your regular group or reaching out to players you've enjoyed gaming with before.
- Invite by email or username - Send invitations to existing users or email new players to join the platform
- Invite at creation or later - Add players when setting up a game, or send invites anytime after publishing
- 14-day invite window - Invitations automatically expire after two weeks if not accepted
- Smart handling for paid games - Invited players are directed to the booking flow to complete payment
📚 Completed Games & Vanity URLs
- Completed games are now public - Anyone can view completed games, making it easier to showcase your past campaigns
- Free up vanity URLs - GMs can now reset custom URLs on completed games to reuse them for new campaigns
🎙️ Recording Workflow
- One-click transcribe & summarize - New unified workflow lets you queue transcription and summary generation in a single action
- Context-aware summaries - Add previous session summaries, wiki pages, or GM notes to generate smarter, campaign-aware summaries
💳 Payment Improvements
- Easy payment method updates - Players can now update their payment method for ongoing games directly from the game's detail page with a simple button and modal
- Pay with your wallet - When updating your payment method for an existing booking, you can now switch to wallet balance instead of just updating your card
- Default payment preference - Set your preferred payment method (card or wallet) in settings, and it'll be pre-selected whenever you book a new game
👥 Minimum Players & Auto-Reschedule
GMs can now set a minimum player requirement to ensure a great first session.
- Set your minimum - Specify how many confirmed players you need before the game kicks off
- Automatic rescheduling - If you don't hit your minimum before the first session, it automatically reschedules by one week (up to 3 times)
- Everyone stays informed - Players and GMs receive notifications whenever a game is rescheduled
🐛 Bug Fixes & Improvements
- Attendance tracking fixed - Resolved issues where players in recurring campaigns couldn't mark attendance for future sessions
- Past date validation - Games can no longer be accidentally created with start dates in the past
- Discord notifications fixed - Session reminders and game updates now properly post to linked Discord channels
- Cleaner reminder emails - Session reminder emails have been streamlined for better readability
- Performance improvements - Various backend optimizations for faster page loads
