Winter Holiday Events are here!

There are three exciting Holiday Quests to participate in!

Spread holiday joy and help Santa Claws deliver gifts to the hardworking Plaza staff, share the joy of hats, and find the missing reindeer!

Find the quest-givers in the Central Fountain area!

In addition, the usual Holiday cheer has swept through Tower Unite! Enjoy beautiful holiday decorations in the Plaza, earn Holiday Coins from playing games, and deck yourself out with some festive gear at Santa Claws’ store!





We have added 5 new holiday backgrounds to Santa's Workshop. We plan to have more in the next update.




While the events have just started, we're still currently in the middle of a major Plaza update which we're working to get out very soon. The next Plaza update will have new Winter items and should be out within the next week or two.

As we've been saying, we've been working hard on bug fixes, which this new Plaza update addresses. This is all a part of the Road to 1.0.



Just a reminder, here is the December Calendar for TU! We’ve got some special winter / holiday themed bonus events going on in the next few weeks so be sure to hop on for that if you’re interested!





This isn’t the last of our holiday fun this year, but we did want to wish you all a Happy Holiday season!

We hope you all have a great time in the game and out of it, and we thank you guys for your support this year! It’s meant the world to us! :]

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




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!

Nuclearxpotato has been working on highly-requested furniture for Condos to help fill out our catalogue, this week working on Lobby Lounge Chairs, Vintage Radiators, Basic Bathtub, Clawfoot Bathtub (and a Trashed version), and Industrial Lights.











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.







Thank you for reading and we’ll see you all next week for more!

This update includes over 90 fixes to areas of the game that have had issues pop up in the recent updates, as well as long standing bugs.
