Hello, Operators! New updates for you!
I will be glad to hear all your feedback and wishes in our discord.
In the new update, we have prepared a bunch of fixes for you (already version 0.65, oh my… getting closer and closer to the release) and a new Halloween quest with a new Halloween monster 🎃. Meet Jack Torment. And while you’re updating the game, let me tell you the story about Jack:
“In the town of Hollow’s End, nestled between whispering woods and misty mountains, legends spoke of Jack Torment. Centuries ago, Jack was a revered guardian of the village, appointed to protect the town’s sacred rituals that celebrated the thinning veil between worlds during All Hallows’ Eve.
However, one fateful Halloween night, amidst a powerful ritual intended to strengthen the barrier between realms, something went horribly wrong. A coven of ambitious witches sought to harness the ritual’s energy to gain power over time itself. But their greed disrupted the delicate balance of the ceremony.
The protective energies meant to shield the town instead fused with Jack, morphing him into a monstrous figure with a pumpkin for a head, glowing with the very essence of the spirit world. His once noble intent was twisted, consumed by the energies of the corrupted ritual, turning him into an entity hell-bent on breaching the barrier he once protected.
Each Halloween, as the veil between the worlds thins, Jack Torment rises, seeking souls to empower his goal of permanently melding the two realms and reigning over the resulting chaos. The town of Hollow’s End stands as the primary battleground, where Jack’s past as a guardian and his present as a tormentor clash, a grim reminder of the consequences of ambition and the thin line between protector and destroyer.”
I hope you enjoyed this spooky story 👻, so now, on to the update:
