| Update to item drops | 2024-07-11 | The item system isnt where id hoped it would be, and i cant stack items, or just make the vip passes rare, and steam support hasnt got back to me in nearly 3 months. So i closed the ticked, removed drops by default (theres still an option to re enable it in settings) But if you re enable it, its only going to drop 1 - 2 items a day after a buffer window now So hopefully the item spam isnt as oppressive now. If anyone has items they dont want, i dont think theres any way for me to delete them, but if you send me a trade request i think i can take them off your hands? I dunno if theres limits to that If there is, and it continues to be a proble |
| Some changes to challenges | 2024-06-30 | Egg challenge only requires painting the fleshy color of the actual egg, not the outline now because where the outline should stop wasnt clear and the floor only requires the floor, before i accidently included some of the leg. |
