Hey Panda Peeps!

Got a fun treat today - a new Phone Fling inspired by recent events. What’s that you say? Most “recent events” kind of suck and maybe shouldn’t inspire fun and flirty conversations? Why yes, we agree!

Specifically, we’re talking about the Getty Museum Challenge - have you heard of it? It’s a fun art challenge people have been doing to re-create famous artworks with household objects, pets, anything you can get your hands on.

We really liked this idea, and decided to feature it with Crush Crush’s resident Fine Artist (and we do mean FINE artist). Lake is back, and she needs a little inspiration from you to help her with her art.

It’s fun and silly and we hope you like it. This Phone Fling is a little different, in that we’ll be releasing it in three parts over a slightly longer period of time. Why are we doing that? We’re trying stuff!

We hope you enjoy your chat with Lake, and as always let us know what you think. Maybe in a poem, or other artistic way.

Love you all so hard!

Hey Panda fans!

We've been receiving a lot of feedback asking when you'll get another chance to unlock certain girls or rewards in the Limited Time Events (LTE). So this post is all about that!

So now that there are lots of characters, outfits and pinups for the LTEs, we're actually going to start bringing them back very soon. Here’s a look at what we’re planning to roll out with in upcoming Limited Time Events (some dates and rewards might change - this is our tentative schedule). Note that this doesn’t include extra updates like DLC girls and Phone Flings; this is purely the LTE calendar:

• June 10: Ruri (full girl) -new!
• June 24: Ruri’s Outfits -new!
• July 8: (bring-back) Summer Beach Group Pinup
  
• July 15: Generica (full girl) -new!
  
• July 29: Generica’s Outfits -new!
• August 12: (bring-back) Festival Yukata Group Pinup
  
• August 19: (bring-back) Odango (full girl) LTE
  
• September 2: (bring-back) Odango’s Outfits LTE
  
• September 16: (bring-back) School Group Pinup
  
• September 23: (bring-back) Vellatrix(full girl) LTE
  
• October 7: (bring-back) Vellatrix’s Outfits LTE
  
• October 21: (bring-back) Halloween Pinup
  
• October 28: ???? (full girl) -new!
  
• November 11: ????’s Outfits -new!
  
• November 25: (bring-back) Alpha Pinup
  
• December 2: (bring-back) Sirina(full girl) LTE
  
• December 16: (bring-back) Sirina’s Outfits LTE
  
• December 30: (bring-back) Holiday Group Pinup
  

TL;DR we’ll be bringing back all the past girls/pinups/outfits on rotation, and will sprinkle in some new content so the LTE keeps fresh!

Love you SO hard; stay awesome!

Hey Panda Peeps.

The day has arrived. Our excitement is palpable. Without further ado, we present Ruri. The deadpan hacker with the cute hoodie.

How do you unlock her? The requirements are simple.

Today we’re launching a new Phone Fling conversation, which is full of flirty techno-hacker shenanigans. You’ll need to complete this new convo.

Next week we’ll be launching a new Limited Time Event, that will allow you to unlock Ruri for free. Grab all the Tokens (or as many as you can). Remember - even if you miss a couple, her diamond cost will stay discounted after the event for a short while.

Do both of these things, and she will be added to your list. Then the fun begins. Oh rapture.

Onto other matters. Attention: all of the LTE girl bundles currently available in the Store are going back into the “sexy vault”. (Just to clarify, that's: Claudia / Tessa / Roxxy / Vellatrix / Sirina / Shibuki / Odango / Monster Girls). That means you’ll need to wait for another chance to get them. From the time of this post, you have 48 hours to acquire them before you miss your chance.

That is all. Ruri is everything.

Love you so hard.

Hey Panda Peeps,

So, we’ve got a nifty surprise for you today, and also a big quality of life improvement too.

First the nifty surprise - a new Phone CALL! Not a Phone Fling, a Phone Call. It’s different.

How is it different? Well, Phone Calls include vocal performances by one of our lovely Voice Actresses, and they’re all kinds of shiver-inducing fun!

So far we’ve only done one, for Renée, and we got lots of positive feedback for it. So now it’s time for round two. This time, you’ll be getting a call from everyone’s favorite angsty sk8r grrl, Nova. She’s in a bit of a jam and could use a friend. So definitely don’t ghost her.

To unlock it, you’ll need to finish Nova’s first Phone Fling, and then make sure your own Angst skill is at level 40. Get on that - and enjoy your chat with Nova.
~~~~~~
In other news, we’ve got a big improvement that LOTS of people have been asking for - improved LTE Token discounts!

What does that mean? Well, you know how the Limited Time Event rewards can be purchased for less diamonds the more Tokens you collect? Well, lots of people were asking (very politely, mind you, not a single pitchfork in sight) that after the event is over, they should still be able to buy the reward unlock for the discount they had earned. Basically, the option should remember how many Tokens you collected.

Well it does that now! If you earn a bunch of Tokens during an event, you’ll be able to buy the character/pinup/outfits (for a limited time) for the discounted price you earned in the LTE popup.

Thanks for your patience for this feature - we’ve been hard at work on a ton of content, and since we wrapped up a few big technical things elsewhere, we were able to jump on this quality of life improvement.

We really hope you enjoy it and your call, and make sure to let us know what you think!

Love you all so hard!

Hey Panda Peeps!

Today’s news is Mega-Sized, for guaranteed satisfaction! Grab a hold of something and get ready for a dummy THICC challenge, because Wendy is almost here!

Wendy was one of our lucky winners in the last Phone Fling Vote, and now she's almost ready to make the leap to being a fully date-able character! Hooray!

BUT - first things first! Unlocking Wendy is going to take a few steps, so read carefully.

FIRST - As of today, we've just added a new (short) Phone Fling for Wendy. You'll need to have all of her Phone Fling conversations finished to unlock her as a full girl. If you're having trouble unlocking all of Wendy's Phone Fling messages, note that you need Iro at "Sweetheart" level.

SECOND - Next week (starting midnight UTC time on May 6), you'll need to go to the Limited Time Event pop-up, and start collecting all of Wendy's tokens. You need to log in once a day to get each one, or grab some diamonds and short-cut your way to victory.

Do both those things, and Wendy will be added to your Girl list. Huzzah!

If you miss the event, you're not out of luck, but you’ll need diamonds to unlock her. Diamonds can be earned by completing relationship levels, grabbing the daily rewards, or buying some from the store.

So don’t miss this special chance - she even comes with whipped cream. What are you even doing still reading this?

Wendy is a load of fun, and waiting for your (chicken) tender embrace. So get in there, unlock her, and show her you’re ready for the whole buffet. Food jokes are awesome!

Enjoy, and as always- let us know what you think.

Love you all so hard!
