It's finally Earth Day! The planet's still spinning. The skies are still blue. The ground is still... there. And luckilly gravity is still here to keep everything from shooting off into space in a violent explosion. And oxygen I guess.

Anywho, to celebrate, MechQuest decided to make a new solar-powered shoulder weapon. This baby uses no EP at all and actually regens some of your EP. So you flat out gain EP for using it. That's pretty win to me. Here is a picture and some info about it.

That's right. Steal a Shadowscythe ship and you can either keep it for Soluna's forces to use or destroy it because that's fun too. This was my grand plan all along that this quest would be the war-ender. It gives 15 victories for 7 fights but if you're Star Captain, it only takes 4 fights. Sounds like a good deal to me.

Also, the Star Captain Monthly Mecha is out and available. We call this guy the Morehawk because he has a mohawk and we already have a mecha named Mohawk so if we have more mohawk then we must have Moreawk!!! He's a floating mecha and extremely offensive. And I mean that in the sense that he is super strong and kept making fun of my mother :(

Anywho, Rixty item will go NG on Monday for everyone that can't get a hold of a Rixty card. Also, the Earth Day weapon will be gone on Monday so be sure to get it. Next week, Maypril Fools mecha and May Day weapons are a definite. Storyline release not as definite but we'll see.

Keep in touch and thanks for playing. Have a great weekend.

Don't forget to check out the Rixty Promotion! Information is on the post below this one.

In other news, we have a new quest for the war on Lagos. Prince Robert needs your help to steal back an Arthurian Ship that has been stolen by the Shadowscythe! This quest would be wise to do as it gives you 7 war victories for 3 fights. Sounds like a great deal to me.

We've also released an extended Intro cutscene. We had to leave this part out last week because the NPC wasn't finished yet but when you see the NPC, you won't care because it's just awesome. We'll also be releasing another cutscene next week to inform you of what Warlic and company has found out about that purple-haired girl.

We've released another shoulder weapon in the NG salvage shops and there are 2 weapons waiting for you in the 50% shops. There is one SC and one NSC back shoulder weapon. We'll post their specials soon.

We've got a huge to-do-list for the next planet. Everyone has harsh deadlines. We will be working very hard the next 2 weeks so I hope everyone's looking forward to that. On that note, everyone have a great weekend. Thanks for playing MQ!

Yeah. I'm tired. Been working hard all day. Some things still didn't work the way I wanted them. Anywho, the things I REALLY wanted to work, are working. And I like them. I want to say I love the Bait quest. You should too.

That said, at 25% you will get access to some weapons. Lucky for us, we still have time to code it. Our main weapon coder, Personator is down for the count right now. So I get to pretend I know what I'm doing with the weapons and code a good one. Then I get to work on a promotional item for next week since time has effectively eluded me so my day is not yet over.

Expect the intro video to change a little next week. Also I hope to get 2 new quests out next week along with the war boss who won't be a boss as much as it'll just be another tougher enemy to fight in the war.

As always. Report bugs. There may be a few because I had a ton of code to fumble through. I may make a better DNs post when I have time. Unforunately, I have none! O_O!!!!

Enjoy your weekend. Thanks for playing MechQuest. Be back later.

Yes. Whoopsie-Daisies. Turns out there were some bugs on the Easter mecha. Luckilly, fixing them actually makes them stronger. Therefore, you should definitely show interest in acquiring one. Blues has more info as he always does.

Thanks, Blues. Also I would like to point out that I will be removing the April Fools shops in a few hours and this will also remove the St. Patrick's Day shops as well so this is your last chance to pick up the Korin Bag head and the Cloverblades! Hurry up. No guarantee on how long I'll leave them up because really it'll be whenever I remember to do it once I get home.

Also, if you go to Gark's Cantina, you may or may not spot a familiar face. However, that's all it'll be. You can't talk to the person.

Anyways, we'll be returning to Lagos briefly to help Braddock while Char continues to develop the wormhole device. As we speak, Warlic is asking around to see if anyone knows who the purple-haired girl is. After that venture, we will begin the next planet which should be a great amount of fun content that should remind everyone of the older days, yet carry the newer, slightly more serious storyline while also maintaining the puns (which you'll greatly notice on the planet after this next one) and overall humor as before.

On that note, hope everyone had a great weekend. I has a headache. Yes I said has. And yes this is the end of the Design Notes post for now. New post will come when I remove St. Patrick's Day and April Fools buttons.

We meet again. Much less stressful week. We did release a tad late but we were doing some thorough testing on the Revived Bunzilla. I figure it's worth the extra 30+ minutes.

We opened up the previous Chickee War which also has the Egg Hunt release from the year before that. I would like to note that the Chickee War now has no war. It's just the quests. You do still need to beat the boss before accessing the shops. Same goes for the new release which is a simple boss fight then rewards.

Revived Bunzilla is the main reward. It's the white one that jumps underground since we all need clarification including myself. You can also get a monster mecha version of the boss. If you are kind enough to get the NG version, you can actually choose the attacks. The SC and NSC choose attacks randomly. This is af eature I'm quite proud of despite how simple it was to do but don't ruin my moment :P

Regardless, nice easy release. I should also point out that I accidentally ended the St. Patrick's Day release early and now you should be able to access it through the April Fools shop using the GIANT button at the top which will take you to the rainbow town and also progress you to top rank. I apologize for yanking it away a couple days early.

A lot of you seemed to love teh new sounds. Unfortunately (or fortunately...) we can't make a toggle on or off so the sounds are gone forever. Might bring them back next year. Who knows? Hopefully some people got it on youtube.

The April Fools shops as well as St. Patrick's Day shops will remain open until Monday afternoon. Expect a Mayrpil Fools Mecha in May. Hopefully May 1st. Sorry for the delay on that but there's realistically way too much to do but I assure you we have more exciting stuff planned in a couple weeks. We have people working very hard on content for the upcoming releases. I hope to finally recapture the style used in the days of old where planets had walkable areas. Things are looking good on that front so we'll see more on that soon.

Anyways, hope everyone has a great weekend. And if you celebrate Easter, have a very Happy Easter. Don't forget to tell your friends to play MechQuest! Boy I hope I didn't forget something... If I did I'm certain I'll be back later with an update. But before I go, I just remembered. Personator had his wisdom teeth removed. Let us laugh in a supporting fashion that his mouth is so sore that he can't open it. Haha! Just kidding Personator. Good show. Feel better. Alright I'm tired of typing. And I'm hungry. We'll post special information from Blues about the Bunzilla sometime soon so don't panic. I'm just not sure where it's at and as I previously stated, I'm hungry. So see you next week!

P.S. Enjoy the Korin heads. I was sad that I had to make them and release them :( Despite the fact that it was fun to animate. Also expect 2 more transformations for it soon. Alright seriously. Hungry. Later.

Finally, after weeks of planning, we've upgraded the sounds. We bumped the quality up from 4000hZ to 8000hZ. Sure it costs a few extra KB in bandwidth but it's easily better. Sounds are thicker with more bass and really, we're just proud of it. We're positive you will be too.

Warlic did a great job mi xing the sounds together and making them work in the game. Maegwyn and Charfade had some input as well. We know you'll like it.
