This year’s event features a different theme each week, starting with St. Pawtrick’s Day, followed by the Sakura (Cherry Blossom) Festival in week 2, and a Respawning Day spring finale for week 3. It’s like three events in one! We’ve got a brand new species of Super Animal to introduce too, so let’s see what’s popped up now that winter’s ice is melting. [h1]Respawning Day Event[/h1] [img]{STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/33586940/c8f9533195476e3ab59d462d7108ddb8ea061014.jpg[/img] Respawning Day is a time where Super Animals celebrate the pod-grown clone technology that makes their endless participation in Super Animal Royale possible! Springtime reminds Super Animals of more than just their functional immortality via cloning, though, so this year’s celebrations include three different spring themes, starting today with St. Pawtrick’s Day. If this is your first event or if you need a refresher, here’s a crash course on how events in SAR work: [list] [*]When each week begins, a set of five weekly challenges will unlock for you to complete. Once each week’s challenges have unlocked, you’ll have until the event ends to complete them and earn their rewards. [*]Each week also debuts a new Super Animal breed in the Research Lab! As always, Super Animals introduced as part of an event are permanent additions so there’s no time limit to unlock them. Take your time and pace yourself! [*]Join the island’s Super Egg hunt around Super Animal World! Each egg provides a small heal and counts towards progressing certain event challenges. You’ll earn them from completing matches, too. [*]Fabergé Giant Emu eggs have been placed around the island! You can destroy them to progress some of your challenges, and don’t forget to nab the Super Egg pickups inside.

The event’s first week features 5 lucky challenges to complete as well as the new [b]Super Lucky Pig[/b] in the Research Lab. [h3]5 Challenge rewards to earn[/h3] [list] [*]Lipstick Sticker | [i]Collect Super Eggs (1,000)[/i] [*]1500 XP | [i]Smash Faberge Giant Emu Eggs (7)[/i] [*]Golden Horseshoe Gravestone | [i]Get Kills (12)[/i] [*]750 Carl Coins | [i]Destroy Skunk Mushrooms (5)[/i] [*]Clover Umbrella | [i]Land Under A Cherry Blossom Tree[/i] [/list] [h3]New Super Animal Breed[/h3] [list] [*]Super Lucky Pig [/list] [h1]New Super Animal: Super Octopuses[/h1] [img]{STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/33586940/72882bac9e404b39ca0b8a8d7e43afd39235ad38.png[/img] You’re not being suckered, the new [b]Super Octopus[/b] really just arrived in the Research Lab. It took a bit of convincing (and genetic modification) to avoid them using eight guns at once, but never fear, the Lab Labs have made sure to fully “balance” them against other combatants. [img]{STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/33586940/95f1a9e8bd5eb27f22eb654283eb09cbdc24fe12.png[/img] Super Octopuses are available to unlock in the Research Lab beginning at level 60, with four total breeds to unlock: [list] [*]Super Octopus [*]Super Pink Octopus [*]Super Blue Octopus [*]Super Blue Ring Octopus [/list] [h1]A Pot o’ Gold for You: Code “LUCKY”[/h1] [img]{STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/33586940/14d653e1f8a084400afa3764f328fba4b75878af.png[/img] Worried about getting pinched? We’ve got you covered. From now until the event ends on April 5th, you can use the code [b]LUCKY[/b] to nab these mean, green St. Pawtrick’s Day items: [list] [*]Lucky Top Hat [*]Lucky Suit [*]Lucky Dress [*]Lucky Beard [*]Lucky Hunting Rifle [/list] [h1]New in the SAW Shop: The Spa Bundle & More[/h1] [img]{STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/33586940/6417af67852d444cf1ef69e61203ee8606387dcf.png[/img] The island can be a chaotic, stressful place for any Super Animal, but Macawsome has just the solution! The new [b]Spa Bundle[/b] in the SAW Shop will help you unwind and get a little self-care in between (or even during) royale matches. The Spa Bundle includes: [list] [*]Towel Wrap outfit [*]Towel Hat [*]Cucumber Glasses [/list] The new [b]Sakura Dual Pistols[/b] have also arrived in the SAW Shop to get you in the spirit for the Sakura (cherry blossom) Festival, kicking off next week! Plus, tomorrow (Wednesday) the new [b]Tinfoil Hat[/b] will rotate into the shop for 48 hours. Grab it quickly before anyone questions whether it was ever really there. [h1]New in Carl’s Cart[/h1] [img]{STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/33586940/861d2034be257bb3047d284cc7a9b94feda6197a.png[/img] Carl’s got some new stock, fresh from the garden! The [b]Leek[/b] melee weapon (which in an ironic turn of events, got leaked yesterday) has arrived in Carl’s Cart and tomorrow (Wednesday) the [b]Daikon Radish[/b] melee will join it. Respawning Day cosmetics from previous events have also been moved into the Cart so keep an eye on its rotations for those throughout the event. [h1]Small Additions & Bug Fixes[/h1] [list] [*] Added /hidenames command to genericize other player names in matches (particularly useful for streamers). [*] Private match hosts can now use /admin # command to set a player as a helper admin (use shift+~ to see a list of players to get their number). These helpers can use all of the same commands as the host, aside from kicking the primary admin. The command can also be repeated on the same person again to revoke their privileges. [*] Fixed SFX volume being at 100% on first install, despite showing 50% on the settings screen. [*] Fixed a bug where high ping player could pick up two downed teammates at once with fast clicking. [*] Fixed Firecrackers melee missing animation sometimes. [*] Edited tap dance draw order to fix blush moving on top of glasses. [*] Fixed kestrel's (and others) eyes in aerobics emote. [*] Fixed some cosmetic positions on the Super Blackbird. [*] Fixed Ninja Booties draw order during zipline. [*] Added missing foot splashes on water to some emotes. [*] Added some follow-through animation to raccoon's mask and dragon wings in some emotes.
