[h3] Happy Lunar New Year!

To celebrate the Year of the Snake, we’ve added some Spring Festival decorations![/h3]

While most countries now follow the Gregorian calendar, where 1-year is based on a single revolution of the Earth around the Sun, many countries throughout East Asia originally followed the Lunar calendar, which is based on the phases of the moon. Most traditional festivals in these countries are still based on this calendar, including the Lunar New Year, which marks the beginning of a new year in the Lunar calendar.

Alongside the Lunar calendar, there is also a 12-year cycle commonly known as the Chinese zodiac, where each year is assigned an animal. The order of these animals is based on an ancient tale known as the Great Race, where 12 animals took part in an epic race to see who would finish first and claim the first year in the cycle. In this story, the sneaky snake hides within the hoof of the horse until the very last minute, then slithers out to scare the horse and crosses the finish line before it. In this cunning way, it was able to snatch 6th place right out of the horse’s hooves. This is apparently the reason why horses will always stomp on snakes when they see them!

Within certain cultures that follow the Lunar calendar, people born in a certain animal year are believed to take on certain characteristics from that animal. While the snake has been much maligned throughout the world as a cunning and evil creature, it is widely considered to be the most enigmatic creature according to the Chinese zodiac.

People born in the Year of the Snake are said to be intuitive, sensitive, highly intelligent, humorous, persistent, artistic, sympathetic, wise, persuasive, and passionate. That being said, those bitten by the Snake won’t soon forget it! Snake people are known for being jealous, suspicious, materialistic, easily stressed, devious, and private. In short, you may want to be careful if you’ve got a Snake as your co-op partner!

While it still carries a reputation for being deceitful, the snake is also seen as a symbol of rebirth, transformation, and immortality in the Eastern part of the world.

What better way to represent the beauty and transformative power of the snake than to transform the hub area! Now you can see the elegant snake carved into the walls of the cave, alongside many other Chinese New Year decorations.

It’s not just the hub that we’ve made changes to.

We’ve also added some quality of life changes to keep those puzzles puzzling.

• A new journal feature, which can be opened by pressing J. In the journal, you can either draw or type out notes to keep track of anything you like. The drawing section includes a pen with 2 sizes, an eraser with 2 sizes, and a clear button.
  
  
• A reworked hint system. Hints are no longer on a 5 minute timer, but instead are available the moment a puzzle starts. Some hints are now marked as Solutions since they give away the answer to the puzzle. These solution hints are on an 8 minute timer before they unlock and are visually displayed with a gold frame. The menu has also been reworked into a carousel style to allow for more than 5 hints if required in the future. Hints can be navigated by pressing A or D, or clicking the left or right side of the screen. The menu can also now be closed by pressing H again.
  
  
• Pings have been added. Pressing the middle mouse button (Mouse button 3) will visually mark the object/wall for both players. The ping is visible through walls, scales with distance, and will fade out after a few seconds.
  
  
• All new features can be rebound in the settings menu.
