Hello Arcadians,
Over the last 2 weeks, we have been quite busy. We are now 50,000 users strong and we can not be prouder. Since launch, we have received countless suggestions & feedback from our community. We have come up with a roadmap that we feel you will be quite happy about & fits our vision for the future.

Weekly Updates
As of Thursday, March 10th weekly updates will mainly be bug fixes and quality of life improvements. This Thursday update will include
- In-Game reporting system

We understand players can be frustrated by abusive people and cheaters in the game. We are actively working on anti-cheat measures to improve the gameplay experience.
New Islands
During the month of March, the map will be getting a whole new design bringing in 5 new islands. Stay tuned for updates.
