changedHappy April Fools Day, to one and all—or as we'd like to rename it, "The Fool's Day." This is not a trick and we have no desire to deceive! In 2024 our communities do not need a special day to celebrate social deception. So instead of delighting in corporations blatantly lying to you, albeit with a little more twinkle in their eye than usual, let's celebrate the positive aspects of foolishness!
addedAnd of course, this also marks the 2-year anniversary of the release of Glitchhikers! Thank you for being with us on this amazing journey—the game continues to get better in small and subtle ways based on player feedback. Our achievement hunters were suffering as they tried to find every single character in the game, so we've made some changes to the way the hikers spawn that will much more strongly favour new encounters until they have all been exhausted through repeated journeys. If you’re just missing a few hikers, or if you’re starting the game for the first time, this new patch should help ensure more varied and unseen parts of the game!
addedThanks again for being with us these last two years. May we all be the fool today and open our minds to new experiences and journeys, together.

In tarot, the fool is a special and significant card. It marks the beginning of an epic journey, when all things are still possible. It also signifies a beginner's mind, in which the humble acknowledgement of ignorance allows for openness, eagerness, and a lack of preconceptions. Every day we all are fools in many ways and in many subjects, and we are all fools at the mercy of modern systems beyond our total comprehension.

(If you’re still having trouble finding certain hikers to fill out your Cool Zone, be sure to check out our full hiker breakdown on the Glitchhikers website, which lays out which hikers can be found where, and whether they have certain conditions before appearing in the game.)
