This is an initial release for notifications. I prefer frequent and small incremental changes to see how they work out, so don’t forget to leave feedback on twitter/discord to make Arkadyzja better.
Please consider supporting the development on ko-fi, relay servers cost money and it adds up quickly if i’m gonna run multiple of them. Thanks for the support.

Changelog for 0.0.16
Interface scaling
Buttons for UI scaling are exposed on the top right corner of the waiting list. If you were running with 130-150% of screen scaling on windows – this will come in handy. 
Player status
Now you can set your status to “Ready”, “Away” or get it automatically set to “Playing”. Hopefully this will help you to find opponents easier.
Notification system
Added notification system, so you won’t miss people to play with. Notification system is connected to player status.
There are 4 types of notifications:
- classic windows popup notification
- sound (.wav)
- toast – the blue thing that you could saw previously on top right corner of an app
- app icon flashing on task bar
You can customize all of those according to the current user status that you set. Keep in mind that all of those notifications(except for toast) only runs when you get your app minimized so you wont get annoyed by sounds and other stuff having the app open. 
There are a handful of events you can subscribe to with different notification types.
Customizing the sound
The default is notification.wav but you can customize it per event type in the assets folder.
For example if you want a specific sound for a specific game invite, you can add SLUS-123456.wav or another game of your choice to have a distinct sound just for that game invite.
Check out the assets folder for the examples and have fun with that. I customized Tekken 3 invite sound to give you an idea.
Mute button
Since there are notifications – there is also a “mute player” button. So far the community is small and great but this functionality might be useful in the future.
Invite button
When you create a session – button appears next to players with “Ready” status. Which means you can invite them, so they get notified. There is no “accept/reject” yet, just a simple “ping” to let people know that you want to play with them.
If you would rather prefer a full blown accept/reject system without starting the game beforehand – fightcade style, please let me know via twitter or discord. 
Tray icon
Since Arkadyzja has notifications now – you can minimize an app to tray and do your thing, while waiting for some players ready to play.
Player settings
Both notification settings and interface scale are stored in arkadyzja.json file so your preferences are saved and loaded on app startup.
