We've added five new achievements to Twin Skies. The first two are the rewards for the Writing and Caption competitions. Good luck guessing the other three :)

We've judged the winners of the first Caption Competition and we've just launched the second one. Congratulations to the winners and keep those submissions coming in!

We've also expanded the size of your Writing Submissions to 3,000 words from 1,000. Hope that helps! The new winners have also been announced.

 

We've chosen nine winners to our Fan Art Contest this week because we had so many entries!

Sorry about the lack of updates recently - as we mentioned on the forums we're working on a really big game for Facebook that incorporates lots of Twin Skies characters. We'll give you more details very soon!

Two more Screenshots have been added. We have a rather picturesque view of Shoal from a nearby hill... and you can also see our first underground area!

We've added a new mode to Sap Refinery - Chain Mode. It's a lot harder than the other ones!

There are two more pieces of Concept Art too! We can show you the interior of a human inn, and one other idea that didn't make the grade.

Ahhhh...oooooooh! No modern-day online fantasy game is complete without the trusty Wolf. You'll find hungry wolves looking for prey (namely, you) in many of the zones of Twin Skies. Learn more about them in our Bestiary!

You can also Wolferise your desktop background!

We've added two more Screenshots, this time from the area around Shoal.

The Troll just got a facelift! Sorry if you liked the old one, we thought it was a bit too cute to be one of our bad guys. The good news is that the Beard Bird is still there :)

A load more Buddy Icons have just been uploaded. They feature some of the latest characters and creatures we've added to the site, including Gorselings, Scragglepaws and Floramancers.

We've changed a lot of our media pages so that images that open in new windows are now displayed in light-boxes... because, you know, that's how web sites do things these days. A good example of this can be found on our Fan Art page.

Finally, we've added four more pieces of Concept Art. You can see the original concepts for the Gorseling and Wolf along with some more buildings.

We've just launched our Caption Competition. Every week we'll upload a new screenshot from Twin Skies - you'll be able to arrange speech bubbles to try and come up with something funny.

The best entries each week will be put on display, and you'll also earn an Achievement and some Meteorites for your trouble.

We've judged our first Writing Competition. Thanks to everybody for entering - and be sure to read the winning entries. We'll have an achievement for this competition very soon, watch this space.

Also, the latest winners of our Fan Art competition now have their work on display. If you weren't hungry before, you certainly will be now!

We've uploaded a new version of Sap Refinery with a soundtrack! This theme can also be found on our Music Downloads page.

Lastly... we invite you to feast your ears upon our newest [Epic Song]...

Lone Scragglepaw

Spitting is incredibly rude, especially when you're spitting fire, electricity or acid at somebody. The Sap Beetle likes to feed on the magical sap of the Elevere Forest, and unfortunately for the Canopy Elves, also likes to use sap to defend itself.

Learn more about the Sap Beetle in our
Bestiary.

If you've noticed all your achievements vanishing from the left navigation bar, don't fret. We've added a new feature where you can select which achievements to display there.

This may not seem important right now, but when the new forums are completed these will be the achievements that also show next to your character portrait when you post. Also, we thought the old icons were a bit small so we've doubled their size!

We've uploaded a new version of Sap Refinery in which you can earn Meteorites! We've also balanced it a lot more, fixed a few bugs and added some animations.


In other news, we've added back all the flavour text that was missing, and also fixed all the old news articles. Lots more stuff coming next week (including more achievements.) Have a good weekend everybody!

We've added more pieces of Concept Art. These pieces are from areas that we've been working on recently such as the Nomad Camp in the Wandering Plains.

In other news we've added a new mode to Sap Refinery. You can play in 'Boring Mode' for as long as you want!

Lastly, sorry about the downtime yesterday. We had to switch over to a new set of IP addresses, giving us more room to expand. Some people may have issues getting to the site today due to a DNS problem, we only expect this to continue for a couple of hours.

You thought Blackjack was hard enough - try playing against a psychic! We're proud to announce our newest game... Psijack.


Psijack is set in the Caprina Monastery, far west of Shoal. It's a standard game of 21, but with a twist. Your psi-power meter will build up over time, this represents the percentage chance you have of guessing what card the dealer has face down. Good luck!

Deep within the Elevere Forest is a broken branch, a place where magical sap of many different colours bubbles to the surface. It's also the home to our newest game - Sap Refinery. It's just in testing mode right now so you can't earn Meteorites.

We'll be adding the Sap Floe to our Atlas within the next few weeks. It's not a very nice place though - there aren't many other places in the forest where you can get frozen, burned and electrocuted at the same time!

In other news we've shelved Impit Attack for the time being. The game wasn't fun enough so we're going to create another game with the same assets and animations. Sorry about that!

We haven't really shown you any of our player character animations in detail yet. In light of this we've decided to add a new Featured Article where you can see a couple of the human female emotes.

We'll be adding more soon, we only had time to do a few!

One of the more aggressive pets that a Floramancer can grow is the Flower Hound.

Don't worry, it's not just the Floramancer who gets all the cool pets. We'll be featuring some Warden pets early next week.

Sorry we haven't been updating the site for the past few days. Everything will be back to normal early next week :)

First off, we have some new Screenshots for you to look at, one features of the more famous residents of the Meteor Games office...

We have a new Blog in which you can see how awesome the Meteor Games office really is (and you can totally check out our EXTREME microwave!)

Congratulations to all the winners of our latest Fan Art competition! We'll be judging the Creative Writing competition next week for all those people who have entered.

Two more images have been added to our Meteor Cam Archive.
