Site Update
Escaped from Kaiyo's basement to bring everyone some more updates for Fauna Frenzy.
Treacherous Triangle - Bridge
A new realm has been added, bringing Ay's Bridge into the Frenzy. The Bridge starts off easy, but as you further progress expect the difficulty to ramp up. Those who beat the levels in Bitter Barrens won't see much challenge from the bridge until the later levels, but with more stars to collect, I'm sure you'll all be kept busy (and frustrated) trying to get them all!
Regardless of your fauna's levels, The Bridge is the perfect stage to get some practice in with the game mechanics before we release more difficult levels.
Rune Components
Despite our warnings not to enter the Frenzy until we learn more about it, Querel has been found tinkering with the runes and made an interesting discovery: The runes can be made to have other uses! Querel won't tell me what those uses are yet, but he has created a device to auto harvest runes after a battle. I went ahead and installed the device as to his specification, but I'm still not entirely sure how exactly it works or where the runes go once harvested.
Just know that any runes left over after a battle will be added to your Frenzy inventory. I'll continue to pester Querel and as soon as I get answers, I'll be sure to share it with everyone.
Misc
While the game itself has received a few updates, most of work was put into creating tools that staff can use to create realms and levels with ease. We're hoping with these tools we better balance the game. With these tools though, we need data. Whenever you play any level in Fauna Frenzy, started logging the results of those battles so that we can figure out what levels players are having problems with and help us pin point what we can do to make the level balance if deemed not balanced.
What does this mean for you? As you play levels, you'll help us figure out if things are going the way we want or not. With each future update, we'll use that information to balance existing levels and determine how to set up new levels for other realms.
About Future Updates
We were planning to release fusioning next month, but will be delaying that until later this year. Because of the site's hibernation status, we must focus our time on getting a few other things done before we are able to pump more content (we have two more realms planned each with three stages, a store for purchasing XP tokens and components, and an arena mode). Once I catch up with my chores, I'll be sure to add an explosion of content to this, but until then I ask everyone be patience. I already juggle so much that I'm not making much progress on anything, so now I want to take a break and focus on the recode.
And on cue, I can hear Kaiyo's footsteps. Back to the basement for me :(
That's all for now. I hope everyone enjoy this update, and expect more content to be added around mid-November.
Oh, and before I forget, v2.0.3 changelog:

Okay, this isn't an issue related to the game, but searching for "Fauna Frenzy" in the KB does not return any results ^^;

Ahh but it does when searching "Fauna" and the KB article is super helpful!! Especially the lil video clips. Explained so much to me that I wasn't getting (like the multiple rune chaining thing)!

I still get the dead bricks. 3 or more of the same color just sitting there. I had 5 green in a row but the game doesn't think they are the same color for some reason. 2 green and 1 red is apparently a match though.
I also still get the "the server has closed for an unknown reason" message.

Now the game doesn't work at all. Did you remove it? Clicking on the game does nothing. Other games start it's only fauna frenzy that doesn't open.

It would be nice if the game could be played semi-offline - it's been raining a lot the last few days so my internet is very intermittent - but I'm so glad to have a new area to poke!!! :D
