While we were deep in the code slaying bugs in the game, we discovered that King Roald needed some assistance slaying tasks of his own. We ventured into the blank land of Morytania and helped to rebuild the temple of Paterdomus alongside Drezel. Along the way, we brought to life a whole new town filled with some very peculiar creatures who don't respond very well to being threatened. Lastly, we helped to unrestore a beautiful old tower by filling it with monsters and creatures that should never see the light of day. We hope that you have more fun managing them than we did!

The RuneRebels Dev Team
I'm so excited for you guys to finally get to try out all of the new features and content that this update adds to the game. The content in this update has been a long time in the making, and I'm so proud of all the hard work that the development team did on this release. They've taken the tools that I've made and brought the game to the next level, and on my own I would never have been able to get the game to this point. Make sure to thank the members of the development team if you see them in game, and please keep reporting anything bugs or oddies that you encounter! The team has pressed me hard to improve the quality of the game and fix many of the small annoyances and inconsistencies in the game, such as the speed at which you bury bones, pickup items, or how fast the hit splats appear on Npcs. We will always encourage feedback from you guys, and thank you for sticking with us!

Player ExperienceFinally, one of the core focuses of this update is to improve the player experience of the game. This includes server-side things such as fixing the timing for burying bones, picking up items, hit splats appearing, and so on. However, it also includes making improvements and fixes to the game client! For example, the neon bulbs that powered the glowing RuneRebels logo during client startup have finally burnt out, and we've replaced it with extremely optimized update server code to get you to the login screen faster:
You have also probably noticed that there is now a button in the bottom right corner for toggling the login screen music on and off! This setting will save between game sessions, so we hope that it encourages more people to try out high detail and experience some of the music and sound effects that we have added in this update. We also encourage you to post bugs on anything that is missing music and sound!
Finally, we've modified how the blurb of text when you first login to the server behaves. Instead of getting spammed with multiple messages that you will probably ignore every login, we've summarized everything into a single message that will only be presented once every day that directs you to our new ::help command. For the rest of the day, you will experience the pure bless of an almost empty chatbox on login:
We have more improvements for the player experience and the client planned for the future, and can't wait to share them with you in future updates!
Good luck in the tower...
