Captain's Log: Summer Sailin'

Greetings Travellers,

If you were on the stream, awesome! If not, you should join us next time!

This is what you missed (which had everyone crying on stream): https://clips.twitch.tv/ZealousRelatedOctopusTBTacoRight ...Skull Gang, yo.

News

Unfortunately next week's patch is delayed to the 3rd of July. :'(

BUT it will have more fixes and some more items than originally planned! Do watch the stream recap for details on how many awesome things are in the works and timelines.

The summer sale is now full STEAM ahead, so you should have received your summer item codes in your inbox (or somewhere around it)! This is a perfect opportunity to try rope your buddies into Worlds Adrift, and maybe even try out some other Bossa titles! Obviously Worlds is BEST.

All-Weekend Events

Creative Writing: Submissions will go HERE, the theme is Calypso!

Ship Design: The theme is obviously SUMMER – go wild!

But remember, your prize is your ship immortalised in Dan Lish’s art. Build something you are proud of and submit it in THIS THREAD.

Scavenger Hunt: Have you solved Ryan's Riddles?

Riddle 1: A bright white light in the dead of night,
Think quickly now, or invite the blight.
No need to wait for dusk to dawn,
First come, first serve - no respawn.

Riddle 2: Where finger and thumb doth meet together,
Is where I've buried my cherished treasure.
Knowledge you'll need, and knowledge you'll find.
Find my loot to lower the grind.

Riddle 3: A public house that's closed it doors,
The wings are clipped, the barrel's poured.
One last drink is now at stake,
A thirst for knowledge, it will slake.

If these places have already been looted, I left 3 more stashes in different locations!

Try your luck: you will find that taking screenshots of yourself at all 6 of the these islands may also bring you to a particular ....well of goodness...? Type of Paradise, perhaps! If nobody finds our loot I I will be left to walk a very blue path.

Hints are all here. Enjoy.
