Upit v0.14.1 is live and Maximus gets promoted! ⚡️

🛠️ Features - Thanks to all the incredible feedback on our new maximus-200k Ava model, we’re making it the default when you create games. Of course, you can still switch between Ava models (optimus-128k, optimus-1m, and maximus-200k) by clicking the toggle icon next to her input, just like in v0.14.0. - We’ve also made a small improvement to how Ava handles code. She’ll now rewrite fewer lines if no actual changes are needed. 🐛 Bug Fixes - You should see fewer server crashes now as we continue upgrading to support bigger, better models (still a work in progress). - Fixed an issue that caused unexpected logouts for some users. That’s it for this one. A small but mighty update! Let us know how Maximus is working for you, and keep the feedback coming. Happy creating!

Upit v0.14.0 is here with powerful new tools! 🎉

This update brings big upgrades to Ava, smarter image generation, and long-requested features from the community. Here's what's new: ✨ New Features - Ava has leveled up! You can now switch between three Ava variations by clicking the icon next to her input field: • optimus-128k – the default you're used to • optimus-1m – smarter, with more context and generation power • maximus-200k – a new BETA model we're testing. Give it a try and let us know how it stacks up, especially compared to optimus-1m. - Consistent art generation – Click an existing image, go to the edit tab (pencil icon), and you’ll now see a new “Generate” option. This lets you generate new images in the same style as the original, making your game visuals more cohesive than ever. - Game deletion – You asked, we listened. You can now delete games from your unlisted games tab. - Notification settings – More control over what you get notified about. Customize your experience the way you want. 🐛 Bug Fixes - Fixed an issue where restyled images didn’t generate background-removed versions. That’s now working as expected. We hope this update helps you create even more amazing games. Try out the new tools, especially the new Ava models, and let us know what you think. Happy creating!
