We’re back again for the August Dev Update! # 🏗 **Upcoming Developments Survey** With the Minigolf Map Maker out, we’re moving on to the other projects we’ve discussed with you in previous dev updates! We’re currently looking for some feedback on the direction for development! **TU Future Interest Survey:** ## [Give your feedback in this survey!](https://forms.gle/KHE2EeM8ojs1UiCH9) # 📺 **Dev Livestream** We are planning on doing a livestream soon to show a little bit more about how you can use the Map Makers and to show off some VR development! It’ll be a casual stream, and we’ve been talking about doing more of these as we haven’t done any in some time. #### Please let us know anything specific you all would be interested in seeing shown off on stream! # 🎁 **Future Plush Interest Form** We’re holding a survey to gauge peoples’ interest in our next campaign with Makeship! You can give feedback [here.](https://forms.gle/PA6d4FGRsqPRrRH3A) # 🥽 **VR Support** Since the last dev update, progress was made on loading screens, error popups, Condo Hosting Menu, Condo Workshop Browser Menu, Plaza join, and Condo join in VR! # 🏁 **Ball Race Map Maker** Ball Race map maker development is complete, has a guide, and will be ready for the next update! All of the pieces necessary for creating Ball Race maps are complete and we’re excited to see what you all make when it comes out! # ⛽ **Zombie Massacre Map Maker** The Zombie Massacre map maker is near complete as well, it just needs to be tested! AI navigation, helipads, spawn points, camera tools, and more were all completed! # 🎮 **Game Types & Mutators** The mutator system is finished as of the last update, so we are planning on implementing more mutators in future updates! We have a forum thread if you have a suggestion for a new Mutator or Game Type here: [Game Type Suggestion Thread](https://forums.pixeltailgames.com/t/game-type-suggestion-thread/50960) ## 🔈 **SDNL Announcer** More SDNL voice lines have been hooked up in game and attached to events! We just need to make a new intro sequence for SDNL to complete the announcer. # 🏘 **Community / Dedicated Condos** We have been hosting our own dedicated Condo for a while and are working on getting dedicated condos to be part of the server lister! The next step is ensuring Workshop will function properly. # 🛠 **Workshop Rig 3.0** We made a lot of progress with the new Workshop rig. We’re getting the rig to import right now. The import process is nearly done, and we’re resolving a few small issues. It’s intended to come out with the next update. # 🎡 **Virus: Theme Park** Lots of progress was made with Theme Park! We’ve made the sign for the candy area, finished art for teacups ride and the candy seating area. There was progress with the ice cream truck model, an art pass on jungle area, bathroom and souvenir buildings and paths, an art pass of curbs and floor details, an art pass on the arcade building, a large art pass on the carnival area, which added more stalls and games. We added more playable space in the bumper cars arena, started on the circus area, and, finally, did an art pass on the castle area. # ⛳ **Minigolf: Dino Drive** In the world of Dino Drive, preliminary designs have been made for every hole, laid out in their positions, and the art phase has begun (including the new tiki items)! Dino Drive is meant to be reminiscent of a Minigolf course one would see at a small theme park, and has a tacky dinosaur theme with painted cardboard cutouts and mechanical moving parts. The first half and second half of the holes are divided in theme, the second half will be interior and the first half will be exterior. # 🕹 **New Arcade Phase: Early Stages** For the upcoming Arcade update, we wanted to mention once again that Air Hockey and the indoor shooting gallery are confirmed as new additions with this phase! Art work has not begun but will start soon. ## **August Calendar!** ![8august2024](https://forums.pixeltailgames.com/uploads/default/original/3X/5/4/549b8ac85f5b0be4311bab58215be455e219772b.jpeg) Here is the Tower Unite calendar for August!

It’s been really phenomenal To see the developers push out so much stuff in the past couple of months. For what we do for this game, the creative and wholesome community we get so much back for it and it’s probably one of the most wholesome games that I’ve ever played… I would like To know when this Live devstream would be And I’m really looking forward To VR as well, a lot of people have been coming back to the discord for the reason of that! Everything here, it’s so exciting I can’t wait! ---
