This lovely little fella will be available for the duration of the event for limited purchase in the Comet Coin shop and for free by participating in the scavenger hunt and event prompts!

Other important updates!

Comet Coin changes

We are working hard on game balancing, this is a learning experience for us and based on the previous event I've learned a few things about the comet coin distribution!

The first change is to the Backgrounds bonus, we are experimenting with using a percentage scheme for the background bonus, this is Not guaranteed to remain and is experimental, but we'd like to better reward people for their time and effort on backgrounds for their pieces! this may make certain backgrounds worth less and certain ones worth much more based on the pieces context which is a factor that was not considered before.

We have also added a new middle tier for backgrounds! This middle tier will include semi detailed space backgrounds with clear effort put into making them but may not include as many details as would be required for a detailed background! Our team had struggled with classifying a lot of backgrounds during the previous event which may have lead to some reward inconsistencies, we hope that by adding another tier for these more middle ground looking backgrounds we will eliminate that for future events and general coin claiming!

The writing comet coin reward has also been updated! We now will be rewarding 0.5 CC per word instead of the previous 0.1CC, this is to make writing more worth it for those who don't wish to do artwork or prefer writing. The previous event we realized that the writing rewards seemed much too low compared to the rewards for drawings and we want to make that more balanced and fair to writers!

About the delay

last but not least I want to once again apologize for the delay in getting this event set up, I won't go into detail but I was unexpectedly out of commission for a couple of weeks and could not work on the event set up like I had planned. I am doing better now and things should run smoothly for the event! Thank you all for your patience and I hope you have fun with this mini event!
