Updates since January 5th, 2024

Treasure Wars

Bed Wars development is going great, and we'll be able to share more soon. In the meantime, we've ported some small quality of life features from Bed Wars to prevent exploits.

• Implemented block suffocation damage

Developer note: This change was implemented to prevent players from being able to glitch themselves into the floor to hide and stall games. We may tweak this feature based on community feedback.

• Implemented AFK kick system (Treasure Wars: Mega)
  

Developer note: This feature has been implemented to combat the increase in players intentionally going AFK to gain XP in Treasure Wars. Whilst the feature is only enabled on Treasure Wars: Mega to begin with, we plan to bring it to other modes in the future, based on feedback.

Survival Games

• Implemented colored boombox item textures
• Improved UI for supply drop and grace period notifications
