February Planned Updates

Hey all!  January is over if you can believe it.  It was a pretty good month for updates, but a lot more things only made it to Alpha and need to be worked on more for Beta.  I think this means February may be a very full month of updates.

Here's a high level list of what I'm hoping to get launched in February:

The Tower: This system is focused on endgame and is comprised of 3 major parts now.  There's going to be a new system that will engage you daily and drive "Specialty" skills, each with their own grind.  Then all of this funnels into The Tower with it's own reward system and more as you climb it.  This is almost a game on top of a game when it's all said and done and should provide a lot of longevity to our most hardcore players.  What is on Alpha currently is a very small portion of the entire thing.

Bookshelf: I've been working on and off on this system since last September.  It's very complex and changes a lot of aspects of the game, so balance is tricky here.  I think it can be completed and put into Beta during February.

Android IAPs: These are in work and just take time to setup correctly.  I have @Tenfoo assisting with these so they will happen when he feels like they are ready.  It will open up supporting the game outside of having to use PayPal.

The Vault: This is about to hit Beta sometime this week.  It's a daily mini-game where you are trying to figure out a Vault Code to get a large amount of Silver.  Testing so far has been very positive and this will be fun daily thing for you to do.

New Fishing Bait: "Mealworms" are in Alpha.  They are going to be adjusted a bit more before Beta, but they change up fishing in a big way: in that they remove the moving blue circle and let you fish by hitting the fish shadows only.

Valentine's Day Event: We are working on an event about the size of the Thanksgiving Event that will happen around Feb 14th.  Should be fun!

Other things: As always, I've got a lot of little things to do here and there.  New items, QoL changes, Merit Badges, Comm Center Goals, etc and there's new Help Requests in work and more.  

It should be a great month!
