The Grime and Punishment Update
[p]Extra! Extra! Read all about it! Walk of Life has dropped yet another meaty content update! This is the second update in a row with a title that's a play on famous Russian literature! Is Porcelain Fortress running out of ideas?[/p][p]See for yourself! Here are some of the highlights from the new update.[/p][h3]New Role: The Scavenger[/h3][p]![]()
The Scavenger has arrived! This grubby-fingrered treasure hunter has no qualms with getting their hands dirty on their look for treasures hidden in the trash! Scavenge around town, discover treasure, and get your hands on some elusive artifacts! They may belong in a museum, but you can pawn them off for some serious cash! You can read more about the Scavenger in our recent dev blog.[/p][h3]Secret Missions[/h3][p]![]()
[/p][p]Secret Missions are back! These missions will be randomly selected at the beginning of each game, and will grant a nice score bonus for those who fulfill them, whether it be intentionally or by accident! If you're interested in some top secret espionage, we recommend hanging around the bathrooms in town, as a shady looking character has been seen hanging around them wielding a suspicious dossier![/p][h3]New Game System: Security[/h3][p]![]()
[/p][p]This update, we're ramping up the frequency of crime waves. Don't despair, you'll have new measures of protecting yourselves in the form of security, a new attribute that plays off certain furniture and the level of your apartment. Be sure to check out the new meter in your apartment, and keep an eye out on how certain furniture might lower or heighten your security![/p][h3]New Quests[/h3][h3]![]()
[/h3][p]There are new quests available in Vexcorp! Many of them have something to do with the bathrooms in town. What is up with these developers and toilets, anyway?[/p][h3]Bots in Online Play[/h3][h3]![]()
[/h3][p]Our dumb bots have learned how to use the internet! Thankfully, they're still spending their time playing Walk of Life rather than spreading misinformation on social media. They have also received numerous other improvements, and will now partake in the PVP system when it's turned on.[/p][h3]Four New Avatars[/h3][h3]![]()
[/h3][p]After a popularity contest poll on our Discord, the four avatar winners have been added into the game! Try them out and let us know which is your favorite![/p][h3]Tons of other stuff![/h3][p]Read all about it in our changelog!
