Tower Unite Anniversary Events! (0.17.10.0)


To celebrate Tower Unite's debut to Early Access, we're starting our Anniversary Event celebrations!

Kalleira, wanting to celebrate with everyone, caused mayhem by bringing in all the characters and minigames from all the holiday events. Due to her magic, this event features minigames from Halloween events and Winter Holiday events all at the same time!



You can also earn Anniversary Coins from playing any of the game worlds or minigames in Tower and unlock anniversary themed items, Halloween items, and Winter Holiday items!

This event will last for the entire month of April, so you'll be able to take your time getting coins!


New Anniversary Items!
Head to Kalleira near the Plaza fountain!

We plan to have more anniversary items in a future update.

Two Way Block

This update comes with a new feature that should help reduce harassment in-game. Two-Way Block is a new standard for the block feature. If you block a player, the other player will automatically have you blocked as well and can no longer see/hear your chat. The player you have blocked cannot remove this block.

Co-Op Condo / Mover Fixes

There's been a lot of desync issues with co-op condos that are now resolved in this update. Before, editing items would sometimes not upload their edited values as a client to the condo host, including groups not syncing. This has all been resolved in this update. Grouping and ungrouping items will now sync properly between client and hosts, and item properties are sent properly as well.

Movers also had a known issue where restoring from save data would not always work, which is now fixed in this update.

New Condo IO Features

More condo IO items were added in this update:
  • Mover Controllable: A mover that is designed to be controlled by user input/buttons
  • Player Input Volume: A usable volume that listens to player inputs and fires outputs based on it. Has support for Forwards, Backwards, Strafe Right, Strafe Left, Jump, Run, Weapons 1-8, Flashlight, Reload, Inventory, and Context key binds
  • Global Message Module: A module that announces messages in chat or on the HUD, wish whisper support. Supports %name% keyword, which will display the player name.
