Halloween 2023 Condo Contest

Hey everyone!

It’s time for the Halloween 2023 Condo Contest!

Submit something that fits the Halloween spirit. It can be fun, spooky, eerie, or whatever you want, so long as it follows the rules!

Like last month’s contest, there is no restriction on when the Condo was made as long as it hasn’t been submitted before.

The submission period ends on October 25th, 2023 at 11:59 PM.

Be sure to look at the prizes and follow the rules on the main thread found here!

Decommission Update (0.17.1.0)

Last week, we released the virus map, Decommission, as well as fixes and improvements to condos.

You can read all about that update here.

Before the Decommission update, there was a hotfix we released with some general fixes, as well as a water volume for condos. You can check out that update here.
