Evolutions... INCOMING!
[p]Let me guess. You want to be the very best? Perhaps like no one ever was? I hear ya loud and clear, pal. That's why we're adding a brand-new, but also not-new-at-all feature to Moonstone Island on June 16th:[/p][p] EVOLUTION. [/p][p][img src="https://clan.akamai.steamstatic.com/images/40678838/dc045bd3129223ab61ad7fdf2a85600bbefcaeb0.png"][/p][p][/p][p]YES! We've got the exciting addition of evolved Spirits planned for our next update, and it's enough to make the Inventor of Evolution, Charles Darwin himself, giggle and kick his feet. Let's look at the big details: [/p]
[p] A new evolution system [/p]
[p] 28 new "evolved form" Spirits[/p]
[p] A new quest to teach you all about evolution[/p]
[p] The DEEP MINES[/p]
[p] With a new boss battle [/p]
[p] We'll have more details on the evolution system as we get closer to the release date (which is June 16th) but we can tell you that the evolved Spirits aren't just visually different – they come with special new abilities, as well as being stronger and more powerful. Some of them might even help you find new things in the world... [/p][p][/p][p]Check back in soon for the update! And as always, it's free!!!!!! FREEEEEEEEE!!!!!!!! – Kate, Community Manager and user of many exclamation marks [/p]
Moonstone Island Demo Out Now!
You there! Game-player!
Have you ever found yourself questioning life? Of course you have! Life is chaos! Life is confusing! Life is something you get handed to you at birth with zero instructions or hints! But what if there were a way to try something before buying it, so to speak?
Wonder no more! We at Moonstone Island Labs have invented a new thing we're calling a DEMO, short for "demonstration", which allows you to give something a go in a short, controlled fashion before you make your decision on whether or not you want it!
In this "demo", which we're releasing today, you can trial the fantastic (and currently on sale!) game that is Moonstone Island, COMPLETELY FREE!
Free, you say? How can such a thing be free?! Well, therein lies the catch, chums: this demo grants you access to the first two weeks of the game, which take place in the springtime. During those two weeks, you will get to experience what it's like to play Moonstone Island, completely gratis!
And if, at the end of those two weeks, you decide that you want to see more, then GOOD NEWS! You can purchase the game (ON SALE FOR 40% OFF!!!) and your save game will continue into the full game, no restarts needed!
We're really hoping this "demo" thing catches on, and if it does, remember to tell your friends: Moonstone Island invented that thing! We're the first ones to ever do it! Patent pending!
Lots of love, – Kate, Community Manager and Co-Inventor of Demos
Fishbo Fools Update!
Happy April, dear ones! It's Magic Man, or Waldo, perhaps you know me as, yes.
In the old kingdom, the first of April was a most special day – a day for rejoicing in the strange, the arcane, the unusual – much like me, oho!
And I indeed have something strange, arcane, and unusual to show you today. In my magical experimentation, I discovered something most peculiar, revealed to me by my darling Fishbo Junior in whispers at night. I am calling them...
FISHBO VARIANTS.
You see, under the right conditions, a Fishbo can transfer its very essence to other Spirits, transforming them into Fishbo-like creatures, while still retaining parts of their own original essence, yes! These new Spirits sprout legs and grow bowls around their bodies, becoming as Fishbo, but still yet something... unique, and special. It is said that any Fishbo that appears in the world will have a small chance of being one of these mutations! How interesting, yes!
I hope you will find some of these rare and wonderful Spirits yourself, and you will say to yourself, "ah, Waldo, what a genius you are, yes!" And then I hope you will bring them to say hello to Fishbo Junior. It was his idea, after all.
Happy April, my dear ones! Ah, no, I already said that. Well, goodbye, then! – Waldo, AKA Magic Man
