:film_projector: LAST THURSDAY: Cottontail Club: Runway Event

The runway lights came on and you showed up to strut. :rabbit::sparkles: Even after our servers threw a little tantrum mid-launch, you stuck with us, and once we got everyone back on the catwalk, the looks were unreal. Whether you climbed the reward track for the premium prizes or just came to spin, style, and be seen, this one had heart. Thank you for your patience while we fixed the event, restored your collectibles, and got progress rolling again. :yellow_heart:

:fishing_pole: THIS THURSDAY: Pixel Paradise

Grab your rod and your best swimwear, we’re heading to the water! :ocean::fish: Pixel Paradise is the debut of our brand new Fishing Event. Cast, collect, and climb the ranks with a fresh pixel grab lineup :carp_streamer:

New this round:
:slot_machine: Lucky Claw & Bubble Claw: two revamped claw machines with brand-new tutorial panels, so you know exactly how to fish for tickets.
:tropical_fish: Hop into the Pixel Paradise Event World for a new Event experience, taught by a fresh new tutorial!

  • Tasks & Achievements v2 :white_check_mark:: A refreshed Tasks & Achievements experience, with a new Daily Login Task and a fresh Linked Up achievement waiting for you in the queue.
  • Why: Coming back to Highrise every day should feel like something is on the board, and the v2 layout makes what you’re working toward easier to see at a glance.
  • Small fixes and polish :broom:: A batch of visual fixes across user badges, showcase controls, the Bubbles section, shop cell layout, and keyboard transitions.

:speech_balloon: YOUR FEEDBACK
“Events broke / disappeared / wasted my tokens.” The Cottontail Club outage was frustrating. We restarted the event, restored collectibles, and carried over premium so no one lost what they earned. We’re also chasing down the lighting-token and event-loading bugs some of you flagged, and Pixel Paradise ships with a more stable, polished event loop.
“Missions/events run too long.” We’re listening on pacing, the reworked energy bank and claw flow in this event are a step toward making progress feel quicker and clearer.

Keep the feedback coming. This is your world, and we build it with you. :yellow_heart:
