- Author's Saving Throw: The "2.0" update was released to address problems with the voting system in public matches, where the audience would usually boo every answer so their own answers would have a better chance. The update addressed this by adding a tournament-style bracket where the players had to directly compare the answers of other players.
- Uncertain Audience: The game didn't really land as well as Jack had hoped it would with his Youtube audience, with the highest player count (at launch) being at 1,300 on Steam, with no suggestion that mobile versions did any better. The game feeling similar to Drawful and The Jackbox Party Pack seems like it'd be beneficial for the game, but it came off as having Follow the Leader syndrome. Jack did use prompts from the game in several Youtube shorts, and did livestream gameplay of it, which did help with the userbase's' numbers, but not enough. Even the 2.0 update felt like trying to throw boiling water over a raging fire, and Jack soon lost interest in the project, seemingly in defeat. This has lead to it's shutdown set for Spring 2024.
