Halloween 2020 (0.12.1.0)

HALLOWEEN 2020 EVENTS ARE HERE!

Halloween Plaza 2020

The plaza is decked out for another spooky Halloween event!
Enjoy the haunted festivities by collecting remains, finding bones, and unlocking various Halloween exclusive items. Be sure to check out the Ghoulcery, because it is back again with new items for you to spend your Ghoul Coins on. And, if you search the coast line, you’ll see that a maze has once again surfaced to be explored!

New Additions!

The unknown can be one of the scariest concepts in existence, so we’ve once again added several new additions to the Halloween Plaza for you to explore this Halloween!

Halloween Achievements

We’ve added lots of new Halloween-exclusive achievements this year. Participate in new quests and scavenger hunts throughout the plaza to earn them, and be sure to check them out in your collection book, too!

Halloween EXP & Milestones

This year you can earn Halloween EXP for participating in Halloween events such as Halloween minigames, collecting candy or remains, completing Halloween achievements, and completing Halloween quests!

As you increase your Halloween EXP, you can unlock Halloween milestones such as throwable blood wine and a drivable Minecart!

Return of the Ghoul Coins

While playing games in Tower Unite during this year’s Halloween event, you’ll earn Ghoul Coins. These coins can be redeemed in the Plaza for Halloween items. You can earn them by playing Plaza minigames or Game Worlds. This year you can earn Ghoul Coins at the Arcade and through Fishing!

Halloween Minigames

The Plaza minigames have not been left out of the Halloween fun. Participate in the Ghost Hunting and Pumpkin Smash minigames on the Event platform, and you uncover a lot of pumpkins along the way!

New Lighthouse and Sea Store

Kalleira has a newly designed store in the lighthouse, which has been updated to fit the revamped art in the rest of the plaza! On your way around the Boardwalk to the lighthouse area, you can also stop by the new By the Sea Shore Store, which has been given its own location in an enchanting cave.

Virus & Zombie Massacre FX and Art Revamp

Both Gasoline and Compound have been fully revamped and polished with more detailed storefronts and ambience, among other fixes. We also polished all the Virus weapon effects, adding in new tracer effects, decals and hit sounds.
