100% Orange Juice News

Hope everyone (in the summer regions) is having a nice summer! We're happy to bring back the long-awaited Pool Party event in 100% Orange Juice to cool you off!

Take on Mio's monstrosity of Swimming Coach in the event to unlock new rewards alongside the old ones!

The event is live until August 15.

The event has a global counter toward clearing the event, and it can be progressed at 50% rate by fighting other co-op bosses in addition to the Swimming Coach. Players have a new personal goal of 5 games to unlock the event's ending and rewards.

Sunglasses can also be unlocked for all characters during the event.

Other changes in version 3.13.2

• Increased the cost of Make-Believe Prison Break from 0 to 13.

Dev note: Rewards don't come without sacrifice. The tough little jailbird was proving a bit more successful in her jailbreak attempts than intended. This change isn't expected to fully limit her potential, but it was evident she should have to fork over some stars to aid in her escape plans. Sora is keeping an eye on her behavior.

Have a nice current season!

Our 2 Million Download festivities continue with the Community Card Pack 4 Art Contest!

We've chosen 6 new card concepts that fit together into a community card pack, and then consulted Orange Juice about fitting concepts for them. Now we're happy to announce the launch of the Community Card Pack 4 Art Contest!

The art contest will be live until July 12, 2023

Like before, art can be submitted for any number of cards and any number of times.

IMPORTANT CHANGE: Submissions must both be posted in the Artwork section of the steam hub with the tag #100OJcommunitypack and the name of the Card they are meant for, AND e-mailed to [email protected].

The email must include the following:

• Subject: 100% Orange Juice Community Card Pack Contest
  
• Name of the card the entry is meant for.
  
• Link to Steam Artwork section entry.
  
• Desired name to be credited in-game and on social media in case of a win.
  
• Full quality art, plus 2 in-progress versions of the art (or alternatively, a .PSD with several layers to similar effect).

This change is both due to the unreliability of the Artwork section in displaying all the entries, and to allow us to confirm no entry is AI generated.

The winning entries will be used on the cards, and we will work with Orange Juice to provide flavor texts to match the artwork. Finally, the new Community Card Pack will be released as a free update for everyone to play with!

In addition, the winner of each category will receive the Contest Winner and Contributor in-game pins. Please note the theme listed on each card. This should be used as a general direction for the art. Full rules for the contest can be found at the end of the post.

Thank you everyone who participated in our Unconventional Art Contest! It was fun to do something different, and we received some very imaginative entries! The judging was very tricky, but in the end winners emerged!

The prizes:

• 1st place: Plushie of your choice + in-game contest winner pin!
  
• 2nd-3rd place: Plushie of your choice!
