Happy Mother's Day

Hiya SMASHERS!

Thank you for all the birthday wishes last week :) Just like the update last week, we added more items to the Cinco de Mayo Shop onOverlook. Not only did we add the new event shop (Cinco de Mayo), but also the Faith NPC has been reworked. We hope to get all the NPCs on overlook better set-up as a quick tutorial spot for new players. We are currently working on correcting a strange bug that causes NPCs to disappear when you speak to them.

We are very close to fixing the bug and also, I have learned how the fact fonts are not being embedded in older maps is the reason some quest show 000 rewards. Now I know how to fix that I will be attempting to fix that issue, while updating older maps asap.

As for my Birthday gear, that will be added on the 5th week of Cinco de Mayo shop update. Each week we will be adding new items to the Why? Since my Birthday is May 5th and this is my 5th year at AE we decided to make it a bigger shop event! First gear that was added is the cactus gear with newer click coding on the armor (allowing for full body to activate on click, compared to having to click each part).

We are always working on new ideas and ways to make HS unique and better! Latest new gear is the Poncho (Click anywhere on upper body to equip the hand gun - Note: Back hand weapons are purely aesthetic) The Writer and Artist contest will soon have some winners selected.

A lot of great artists have submitted applications. We are doing our best to get that out of the way so we can start another (Never Ending Contest?), for those under the age of 18 to get there work directly into HS (More info coming on this soon).

Happy Mother's Day!
