- WarDrobe - 21 September 2019
Greetings, everyone! Remember her? Well, she's aiming for a change. In the latest update, we briefly touched upon the subject of a wardrobe. You may recognize this gif from there: Now we can show you what we have been working on in the meantime, amongst other things. Behold... A CLOSET! No, we were not hiding in it. On the contrary, we bought more clothes, and maybe some new player avatars with it! Sam went first, and came back with Mate. They both got a facelift, and will continue fighting by each other's side in a more fashionable manner. disclaimer: They went on to get yet another face lift afterwards!... Well, at least one of them did. Netricsa, on the other hand, got herself a plethora of colorful skins! We are still balancing on the matter of just how many; which ones will be available at once, and which ones will be unlockable via in-game progress. One thing's for sure; Everybody…
