This weeks goals are being met. Time to get all 5 new ice critters done, including two birds, a horse, a dragon, and a new snow hare texture!
What has been completed: - Ice Hawk - Frosty Hell revamp being underway - Battlefield map underway - All coding features for Battlefield done - Reworking stash - Finishing Nightmare items and working on Ice series
What we are working on otherwise isn't important at this point. Keep an eye out for polls on opinions in-game!

1/5 in the Ice critter series. Keep in mind, all critters from a specific series will drop items from that series. Meaning, Ice will drop Ice items! But not every critter will drop one. Keep that in mind while hunting! What sets are in-game? Currently, only the Infernum set. They aren't dropped by anything as of right now due to the lack of a proper map to suit these flame themed critters. Hopefully, we'll have that set completed for 1.0.8.

Working on adding new ranks! With the process of a huge new PvP arena, we've incorporated a few in-game treats for being the winning team/individual of the tournament! There will also be a donation rank in-game for those that purchase the title. Back to map work we go!

Map work has been such a huge part of this update so far, and don't fret, we're working on a lot of other things too! It's just a slow process until break etc. Battlefield, aka our newest PvP edition is well under way. Been putting this off due to massive item revamps etc. But, this map is fairly large compared to our tournament arena. There are two sides divided by a few barbed wire posts. There will be two teams; Red & Blue with the sides labeled by billboards. There's some secret things about this map we aren't going to tell you before the update is released! So, be ready guys Also, a small update on that hawk we featured earlier. This is one of the many pieces of the Ice series coming to 1.0.8. We're still looking for input on what series besides the Nightmare and Ice ones should go into 1.0.8! Be sure to place your vote. This post might be edited later, I have no idea to be honest haha. //Slain out

Is that possibly new terrain lighting? REDWOOD IS NAKED GUYS. PARENTAL ADVISORY. Added Notes: | Stash should now open with Item box (Hotkey I) | Battlefield is 89% Completed | Terrain should respond to lighting changes, this is still being looked at to add into every map! | Of course, we're adjusting textures | Redwood rebuild 20% Completed (Grass map redone and looking good!) Edit //10:46 PM Responsive terrain is a goooooo

Character Creator got a new backdrop (the Redwood revamp isn't done yet, ignore the baldness for now) There is also a new logo to replace the Kovuworks (KOVU STILL OWNS THE SOURCE!) due to the teams hard work on this game. Our team can also go by 'Motionless Designs' if preferred by everyone c: But, we're still the Aroessa Stafferz

Just giving you all a small heads up with what's been going on lately. A lot of the team is busy around this time of year and we are aware updates have been lacking in this thread, but don't worry. We're still working in the background! But do keep in mind, most of us are high school students who do this as a voluntary position, meaning, we aren't professionals that can pump out 20 things in one day, y'know? We appreciate how patient everyone is being with the update, and how well you all are enjoying the server as it is. A huge thank you to all the support!
After finals this month, I for sure will be full steam ahead focusing on Aroessa alongside some other things in my life. If you have questions regarding anything, please do feel free to PM me.
Thank you all so much for being patient! - Slain & The Aroessa Team

Small message update for y'all since there isn't much to screenshot at this point.
Redwood update is 65% complete! New terrain response to the lighting in the map, along with some new detail touches around the area. Hopefully this makes Redwood a lot cleaner looking.. I have to admit the BETA version is a little messy. (Then again, it was the very first map made for the game.. improvement is a must!)
About 12-15 more maps are going to be added, hopefully. If we can get a decent amount done, along with the large mass of incoming items, that is the number we're aiming for.
New markings are under way, including tail, head, and body marks! We might put the fur texture in-game, but this is still on the table.
New prey are of course in the works. Don't forget, these prey will be part of the two new series that were voted on along with those that exist already. We're pushing the items for those early, hopefully.. this will allow for more items to drop as of right now!
Hopefully we can do a small map update towards August for a Summer Party event! This update should have at least 3 maps.. we won't push all of them that were completed at once for general update stuff.
Rave is getting a small update, and we'll be accepting poster submissions for the map shortly! Want a poster of your own in the map? Be watching for the post. This is a club map after all, and we want the walls covered in posters!
Don't worry, we're also including some snow maps in the update! No more all warm climates in Aroessa-- break out that winter gear.
That's about it for this update, just wanted to catch everyone up on things. Cheers, Slain
