WINTER EVENT PROGRESS
Our current progress on the upcoming winter event is the following:
Art Assets: 70%
Writing: 45%
Coding: 100%
We'll be announcing a start date some time this month when we're ready! In the meantime some info - this event will create a new seasonal town that will be expanded each year with new activities and rewards. It's planned to be the first of one area for each season that will be available along with new events featuring deities and permanent storyline additions.
STAFF HIRING PLANS
We're in the process of preparing materials and updating our system to be ready to bring new staff on board. We're aiming to post a recruitment announcement later this month or early next month.
KELBI SEASONAL PLANS
Kelbi's season is originally this month, however since the Winter event is planned for this month, we're working on still releasing it this spring some time after the Winter event is over. Currently, we're working on the storyline with our writers and will keep you posted on progress for it! We have 4 deities left to release stories for, and we're looking to achieve this by the end of the year with Vaer's month if all goes well.
CUSTOM QUEUE STATUS
Due to various IRL obstacles last month, we had to push the current batch of custom releases to this month. We're on the way to completing and claiming the next batch before mid month. Thanks for your patience as we worked through priorities!
NEXT PRIORITIES ON THE ROADMAP
Once the winter event and staff recruitment are complete, we're planning to focus on the following as our main priorities:
Pet Accessory Market
Customs Market
Tradesmarket Upgrades
Kelbi Event/Storyline
Aviar Cove Balancing
As always, thank you so much for playing and supporting
Dappervolk. We'll be back with more updates soon!
Comments
500k for the pet?? Why....?
I've been buying at minimum 1 full Pai & Oran set every month since I joined. I can handle $50 and 90k potatoes a month, but 500k every month is unsustainable for even the dedicated daily players.
If this is a new precedent, rather than a rarity or an instance of poor judgement, then I just can't justify trying to keep up with this game's releases anymore.
also i got the calf because it was cute and i'm a freak for cows, and don't play enough to need a ton of potatoes on me, but i agree that the pricing was ridiculous as well, and even with the fix it's too late, i've already dumped potatoes in.
