Big Enhancements to User Interface, Chat Filters

Our developers have been working hard on major improvements to the game based on the suggestions of Beta players. Here are some of the enhancements coming in the Open Beta.

Higher resolution & increased field of view

You can now play Hello Kitty Online in 1024x768 resolution! The old resolution of 800x600 will still be available should you prefer it, but choosing 1024x768 will give you a significantly larger field of view, allowing you to see more of your surroundings. You will also have a better chance to spot aggressive monsters before you run into them!  Click on the thumbnails below to see a larger image.

1024x768

The improved Hello Kitty Online will also allow you to see what’s going on in the virtual world while you’re viewing your character info or quest log. See the video provided further down.

Movable windows

Finally, you can reposition windows in Hello Kitty Online anywhere on the screen. This fixes the problem of overlapping windows, and allows you to move them anywhere you like! We’ve prepared a short video showcasing this improvement on the new 1024x768 resolution.  Click on the photo below to watch the video!

Keyword chat filters

Keyword filters for the in-game chat system are being implemented to help prevent unacceptable behavior in Hello Kitty Online. Based on a comprehensive and regularly updated list of keywords, the filter will instantly block offensive words from appearing in public and private chat.

We’ll keep you posted on other things that we’re feverishly working on as we move toward Open Beta and a greatly improved Hello Kitty Online. Please check back often at the official HKO blog, the event blog, and the official site to stay up to date on the latest news and developments in the game.  Stay tuned for more!
