Arnelle's trusty follower with a bit of a wild side, Maynie, is voiced by Tanaka Takako! She's best known for her stellar role as Hina in the Hinamatsuri anime!


Our first cute mystery character is very cute and hardworking! You'll have to take our word for it for now. They're voiced by Kouno Hiyori, the voice of Cure Sparkle in Healin' Good Pretty Cure!


Our second mystery character this time around is very fluffy. They're voiced by Sato Azusa, the voice of Fuwari Midorikaze in PriPara, as well as the beloved voice of your favorite pudding doggo QP in 100% Orange Juice!

All 4 characters will be making their appearance in 100% Orange Juice before the end of the year!

It's the autumn (in many parts of the world), and a perfect time for a mushroom hunt!

The story of Ellie and Lulu continues in a new event, Shroom Zoom, active until the end of October 18!

Ellie and Lulu are searching for 2 rare mushrooms, when they run into trouble...!?

You can participate in the global event by playing in the Shroom Zoom game mode, or playing in normal mode with the Spores field event enabled!

Various wild mushrooms will spawn on the field, and picking them up will give players free mushroom cards with a random effect!



After the first player reaches level 4, legendary mushrooms may appear - picking one up progresses the event globally, and gives the player a strong Gift card which can be stolen if KO'd in battle.

The story of the event is written by Hono of Orange Juice, and the grand ending illustration is courtesy of Siumai112!

Remember - don't eat any wild mushrooms you're not familiar with!

It's a big day for 100% Orange Juice - version 3.0 is officially here!

Here is a short summary of the new features, before we go into more detail:

• Steam Workshop Support
  
• Mod Support Extended to Card Art, BGM, Voices & SFX
  
• A new Arcade floor in the Shop with game machines
  
• A new global event, Shroom Zoom, alongside a new field
  
• 3 New Field Events and a new panel type
  
• Beach Party has been added to Retired Events

Let's start with the big one! 100% Orange Juice now has Steam Workshop support!



Moreover, mod support has been extended to:

• Card Art!
  
• BGM tracks!
  
• Character voices!
  
• Sound effects!

A detailed Workshop guide here explains how the new Workshop mods work, and how you can make and share them!

Sharing and using mods is now super easy! Just nagivate the Workshop and subscribe to any mods you wish to use! They will be downloaded and installed to your game automatically, and updated if new versions of them are made. You can even rate the mods in-game after trying them out!

A new floor has opened in the Arcade building of the shopping street! Take the escalator to reach a new gaming floor that currently hosts 3 brand-new arcade machines!



For 100 stars, you can choose to play Fish-a-Fish, Playground, and Build-a-Castle events with various options! Practice the minigames, or just play for fun!

A new global event, Shroom Zoom, has been added to the game! You can see a separate announcement for more details.

The event continues the adventures of Ellie and Lulu, and adds a new field, Fungus Cave, which can be permanently unlocked from completing the event. Work together with other players to find the legendary mushrooms!


A new type of panel is now in the game: Goo panel! Moving into panels with Goo takes an additional point of movement.

Moreover, 3 new Field Events have been added to the game!

• Fish-a-Fish: The fishing event from Master Anglers event is now available as a field event, which activates every 9 chapters.
  
• Spores: Spawns mushrooms on the field, which give free cards with random effects when picked up.
  
• Goo: The opposite of Freeze event, this event adds Goo to panels every 5 chapters - the affected panels still activate, but moving into them takes an extra point of movement per panel!

Finally, the first summer event from 2018, Beach Party, has been added to Retired Events in the Shop!

To activate the event, begin by purchasing the Beach Party module from the Retired Events shop. After watching the event starting scene, defeat Big the Jonathan 10 times to complete the event. Once the ending cutscene has been viewed, all the rewards of the Beach Party event can be purchased from the Retired Events shop.

There are even more changes in version 3.0, for full list check out the patch note thread!

We hope you'll enjoy this version 3.0! The fun never stops in 100% Orange Juice!

Have a card you really want to see in 100% Orange Juice and can't believe it doesn't already exist? Now it's time to get those creative juices flowing!

Introducing a card contest for Community Card Pack 3!

The contest will have 2 phases:
Active: September 7 to October 5 PST.

Unlike last time, when we used the surplus from the first Community Card Pack for the card ideas phase, the game has evolved quite a bit so we want to give everyone a fresh chance to pitch cool new ideas.

Last time we received about 2000 card concept submissions. Can we do better this time? Make us find out the hard way!

The card pack will contain a minimum of 1 Boost, Battle, Event, Trap and Gift card. Just head on over to this thread and submit your ideas.

The Community Card Pack will be produced as follows:

1. Suggestions may be submitted in this thread until the end of October 5 (PST). Suggestions can include card type, name, effect and cost/level, but general suggestions and discussion on other suggestions are welcome too. Flavor texts are not necessary. Suggestions don't need to be unique, so don't worry about reading every single other idea in the thread. You may also include several ideas in the same post if you wish.

2. Fruitbat Factory will select an appropriate mix of concepts from the thread and modify them as we see fit. Fruitbat Factory may add other cards to the mix as well, if some niche turns out to not be met.

3. Fruitbat Factory and Orange Juice will prepare concepts for the final card selection.

4. An art contest will be launched to create community art for the new cards.

5. Fruitbat Factory and Orange Juice will prepare flavor texts based on the art for the final card selection.

6. The new cards will be added as a free new card pack into the game.

7. The community is, as always, solely responsible for any bugs the new cards introduce.

By submitting a suggestion in the designated thread, you agree to waive any demand to credit or compensation regarding any text and concepts you propose with the full understanding that that the only reward you receive is the happiness from helping add new content to the game (Suggestions may overlap and it may be impossible to accurately credit or reward them afterwards). Fruitbat Factory reserves the right to modify the suggestions and to not use any of them at their discretion.

After we have finished processing the submissions and selected winning card entries, and discussed their concept with Orange Juice, we will run a new Art Contest for them! More detail will be released on this when it's time.

Take it easy on us!

A new event "Master Anglers" is now live until the end of August 29, PST!

Take to the riverside to chill with fishing and BBQ with Saki, Kae and Nath!

While playing the new Fish-a-Fish game mode, the matches play out as normal, but with a twist - every 5 chapters, a new Fish-a-Fish minigame will play out. For 90 seconds, players compete to catch the biggest and most energetic fish, and race to complete the requests as the Grill for extra points!

After each fishing phase, players gain stars and wins based on their score ranking!



Participating in this game mode will reward players with some super special summer-themed rewards...!

The gorgeous ending illustration is courtesy of Miko, whom you may recognize as the artist of Seven Days!

Fixes:

Version 2.9.5 adds big new features again!

For the industrious players who have already been making graphic mods for 100% Orange Juice, and those who would liked to if it weren't so difficult, we have great news!

It is now possible to create graphic mods in order to override existing unit textures in the game. Mods are managed in a separate folder and won't be affected by the game updates or other modifications. See the [url=
https://docs.google.com/document/d/1GC63DntRWPV00zKe1y9r48mvMbcjHVWEuuNaKSMBbtQ/]online documentation here[/url] for more information about how to get started!

This is the first step toward possible Workshop support, and we'll be looking for feedback on the implementation, as well as seeing if it presents any issues.

Changed muting to persist across lobbies.
