 Description   

Any time I try to join a local wi-fi world, "Invalid name!" pops up. I've tried joining on multiple devices. (iPhone 5s and iPad air 2) I'm not sure what the problem is but it started after I updated to 0.11.1 this morning.

Ohhh wow, thank you for that. I changed my name and it works now.

My 8 year old discovered this morning that this is an issue with player names. If the player name has a space in it, the user is presented with the "Invalid name!" error.
