Hello everyone, and welcome to the Weekly Dev Log for April 11th, 2022, detailing all the changes that have happened since April 5th, 2022.

Accessibility Suggestions

We’ve created a forum post asking the community for suggestions on how we can improve gameplay for players with certain conditions such as colorblindness, dyslexia, or anything else that might affect a players ability to use the standard presentation and controls of the game.

If you have any ideas or suggestions, and possible solutions on how to solve a particular issue, please check out the forum post here.

Update 0.15.1.0

Last week, we released Update 0.15.1.0, which brought numerous optimizations, the new Zombie Massacre map, Acrophobia, as well as the return of the Anniversary events.

You can view the entire 0.15.1.0 changelog here.

We also released a hot fix over the weekend that fixed some issues with the initial release, and we’re planning another hotfix to be released within the next few days.

Casino: Phase 2

The next aspect of Tower Unite we’re tackling is Phase 2 of the Casino.

This phase will introduce more Casino activities, such as Horse Race Betting, Bingo, Roulette, Blackjack, and more.

You can follow our progress on this phase here.

We’ve shown it off before in past Dev Logs, but for those who are new or have forgotten, here’s a sneak peek at the next phase of the Casino.

Really hoping the casino phase 2 changes the interior entrance to match the exterior.

wish there were more roulette variants… or at least a 100-hand video poker, lol. good things tho.

Would love to see X-Hand Video Poker (10, 50, 100, anything is better than 1 hand, really).
