I am proud and happy to let you guys know that I have managed to implement the first fully playable version of the online multiplayer mode for Gemwielders! I played my first full test game last week and – after some bug fixing, code revision and refactoring – will tackle designing and implementing a clean, transparent and enjoyable ladder experience.

It has been my design philosophy for Gemwielders that a game offering deep and interesting gameplay does not need distracting and complicated reward systems to engage players. I want to create an easy to read and understand ladder that let's you compare your skill to other players around the world and take note of your improvement in skill. I am convinced that in the long term only that provides satisfaction that feels real, earned and therefore truly rewarding.

A small update to fix some problems with hitch-hikers and Flossy.

Rainbow and forest customisation packs added.

Hello Lumia Island survivors,

During the 1.43a we let you know that Legion Token Books (Basic/Premium) would no longer unintendedly grant already obtained rewards while distributing newly achieved rewards, and that Legion Tokens from the Legion Token Books that were incorrectly sent out would be retrieved.

Since the announcement and until now we've been conducting the process to retrieve said incorrectly distributed rewards.

However, the process to recover rewards from completing a collection after purchasing a skin or purchasing a questbook is being delayed and will be carried out during our 1.43.1 maintenance on Thursday, March 27th! Additionally, rewards for unclaimed Legion Token Books (Basic/Premium) will be redistributed via the mailbox during the same patch.

We deeply apologize for the confusion and inconvenience caused by this, and we will do our best to resolve it.

Thank you.
