This is one of the largest updates of the year! We’re bringing you Pets, Global Chat, new Cat Cafe, tons of new items, much-requested updates to the Dedicated Condos browser, and plenty more! So let’s dive in!

Global Chat is back! Global chat offers the option to chat with other users outside the bounds of an individual server! So, you can access global chat and interact with users while you’re in different parts of the game, like talking to players in the Plaza while you’re in the Condos or Game Worlds!

Global Chat also brings back Game World notifications when a player starts a public game world server!

A brand new store is now open - Café Miaou!

This elegant and cute cat cafe serves delicious pastries and drinks, all while keeping our resident cats safe and warm. Sit down, relax, have a cup and snuggle and pet our adorable cats.

For dog enthusiasts, we’ve also opened a dog park! Head over to the West Stores in the Plaza, by the Backer Statue Garden to visit and adopt tons of adorable canine friends!

With both the Cat Cafe and the Dog Park, you can now adopt your very own Condo pet! These adorable animals 

We currently have 28 lovable and adoptable cats and dogs!

Pets have traits such as love and energy, and commands such as sit, follow, eating/drinking, and sleeping.

You can get pet beds, pet food/drink bowls, and cat towers for your wondrously cute animal friends.

In our last update, we added Dedicated Condos, but it was a bit hard to navigate all the new servers. 

You can now easily sort the condo browser and filter out by Dedicated and Player-Hosted Condos.

For those of you that use the Windows Launcher for Dedicated Condos, we’ve added some enhancements to the launcher (should be out in a day or so).

You can now have per-Condo server profiles, which helps with running multiple versions of your Condos.

We’ve also added other features to the launcher such as: Chat Log (which updates in real time), Bans Editor, Custom Condo Map name setting, and Client Port setting.

We have an important update regarding the upcoming launch of Chessarama on Android.

We've made the difficult decision to move the release date from August 18th to a new date in early September. This extra time will allow our team to implement more optimizations and improvements to ensure we deliver the best possible game experience for you on day one! 💙

Our commitment is to quality, and we believe this short delay will make a significant difference. We sincerely apologize for this change of plans and are incredibly grateful for your patience and excitement. Your support means the world to us.

Hey everyone, this is Benji from the GUN JUMPERS. Thank you so much for support the last couple weeks, it’s been so wonderful to see everyone enjoying the game. I made a piece of LUNR and Eclipse as a thanks, you can take a look at it at the end of the post.

We’ve been listening to all of your feedback and reviews of the game, and we have an update for you! Some of our team has been working really hard to make the game run better for everyone, and to fix all of the bugs that have been reported in both the forums and the discord. The game has been optimized a ton, so if you were having performance issues before that made it difficult for you to enjoy the game, give it another shot! Glitch form has also had a lot of fixes to it, so I’d recommend trying that out as well! The patch notes are listed below.

I’ve also been asked if there was a place where people could buy merch for the game, so I made a merch store! If you like my art and would like to support me, or if you just like some of the characters from the game, feel free to check it out! I’m still in the process of uploading some stuff there, so if there’s anything in particular you’d be interested in, like stickers of a certain form or something, feel free to let me know in the comments.

(wip of a sticker I'm working on)

Also, if you haven’t joined the discord and would like to here’s the link. I'll update it as I post more stuff to the shop. The community is wonderful, would definitely recommend joining if you like the game:
