Repeated intro
Hello everyone!
Extracted changes
- Gameplay
- Store
- Maps
It was great to see last week's gardens and here's a snap of the winning hidden garden:
An amazing tower of greenery and foliage. There's a surprising amount of detail in there, so it's no wonder that Lady_Malva on the Discord won first place!
So what's this week's theme?
Building Competition 12: "Shopfront"
There's a change that's been made to how shops are placed...
Now, instead of placing a shop within a building, you'll be placing them onto buildings. Like a window or door, shop fronts now can be placed on to any building. And even multiple on the same building!
There's more details in the new update.
So this week's theme is:"Shopfront"to get you experimenting with this new system, and create something commercial.
How It Works
Theme: "Shopfront"
Build a commercial district, a hidden little corner store, a tower of deals, up to you!
Pick a suitable map from the story or the creative mode, and build whatever type of shop you'd like using either the creative mode or story mode! Doesn't really have to be secretive, to be honest.
How To Win
Judging will take place on Discord where you post 1-3 images and a little description to the #submissions channel. We'll do a community vote based on how many trophy emojis your submission gets!
