How can you suggest things?

There are a few different ways you can suggest changes:

  1. Join the discord server! There is a special channel for suggestions under #youtube-suggestions. I will primarily be going through this channel and adding in the suggestions from there.

  1. Watch the YouTube livestream! I will be livestreaming the crazy development of this event and if someone suggests something in the chat, I'll try and get to it! https://youtu.be/yg5QTHHr2Es

  2. Comment on this event post with your suggestions! I will take a look through these before the livestream and might look at them at the end of development again, so the other two methods are probably more reliable to get me to see your suggestion.

There's no need to do all three of them, just one will be enough and I'll try my best to get through as many as possible! The key thing with the suggestions is that they have to be rather easy to implement.

Here are some of my favorite changes from last year:

  • Sky is bright pink

  • Islands are constructed upside down

  • Mortars fire downward and have upwards gravity

  • A massive random explosion will spawn every 5-10 minutes

  • Build area increased to 13x13. However, only visual changes were made to make it look like you have extra space. You still have a 12x12 build area.

  • Hit sounds changed to rubber duck squeaky noises

  • Excessive amounts screenshake

…just to name a few.

Some of the changes from last year were so good that they became a permanent feature, like the warp gates spinning!

Enjoy!
