Weekly Dev Log for November 26th, 2024

Hello everyone and welcome to this week’s Tower Unite Dev Log!

Winter 2024-25 Condo Contest

Hey everyone,

The 2024-25 Winter Condo Contest has started!

As usual, we’re doing a Winter / Festivity theme.

So, your build should be either: winter-related, themed after winter holidays / holiday activities (including New Years), or generally wintry and festive!

The submission period ends on January 22nd, 2025 at 11:59 PM.

Miscellany

Last week some of our staff was impacted by a bomb cyclone storm that hit Washington state. During the week, development was put on hold for those staff due to long power outages and Internet outages.

Everyone is okay and power and Internet was just restored early this week. We also had some other staff members out of work for the week due to other real-life incidents.

After our Thanksgiving break, we will be back to normal development.

This week will also be a shorter development week as we have our Thanksgiving break.

@Johanna worked on the Plaza changes for the next major Plaza update that focuses on bug fixes and optimizations, along with working on the Ice Cream store for the boardwalk as part of the road to 1.0.

@Joshua continued working on the new player models, focusing on outfits.

@macdguy was impacted by the bomb cyclone storm and was out of power for the majority of the week, but also worked on finalizing the boardwalk shooting gallery and major bug fixes.

@Nuclearxpotato continued working on the Minigolf map, Dino Drive.

@Sketchman was impacted by the storm and was unable to work most of the week, but has been working on bug fixes for the rich presence feature for an upcoming hot fix.

@Wheezwer worked on player profile backgrounds for Christmas, the holiday winter contests, and December calendar, along with organizing through reported bug fixes.

@Will continued working on the 1.0 trailer music.

I think all of these additions to the game are excellent and really can’t wait for the ice cream shop and shooting gallery! The profile backgrounds got my attention as well.
