We've upgraded our team by 1-2 people. The team now consists of the following people:

CaptainRex75 (Variety, Main Map Designer), Ajp4j (Main Level Design), MarioFan835 (Main Redstone Design), mario132567, Drooljr

These people have recently been helping me (Rex) develop the map after a hiatus, through part of November, and we plan to continue work into next year time provided.

They are some of my best friends and have devoted hours of their time into the map- by no means is the map near done or planning to be yet. Currently we have three levels which were released last update, the new ice level, and then we have five levels in progress for later updates, with more level areas being planned. All levels need feedback and testing, and are subject to be fixed or changed going forwards.

Our next update will include:

- A new level, once some updates have been made, it will be the new level for this update due to other levels being developed beyond it. This level will be snow-themed, and might be an interesting fight for the player to battle in this level due to its icy rivers and close spaces. The map was laregely designed by Ajp4j, as usual.

- A hub and advanced elevator leading into the map. This was due in large part by Drooljr, incredible work.

- Music has been added to the hub, level hub, including when leaving levels. This is in large part thanks to the initial help of mario132567. Level music and more will be added in the future hopefully.

- A super early shop is being developed based on the levels available, therefore it won't be big for this update, but some basic gear can be attained. We will include a temporary advanced shopkeeper for players who play our current levels often and generate income for better items to challenge themselves with, until more levels and shopkeepers are developed. The non-temporary ones for this update are subject to change as we balance things and take feedback from developers and you guys.

- A tutorial area is now in the game for when you start the map.

We have much more to come, and probably haven't said everything in this update. Please tell us what you think!

The update will be available before Christmas. We will then update the map into 1.15 and begin to use those features. Expect the update after that to be between 1-6 months after. Hopefully we can get updates out quicker due to impending time problems coming up.
