New Items

New Ingredients & Dishes

The second set of regional dishes were released, covering the Empyrian regions.  Cosmic Ramen, Starlight Burger, and Crystalline Tarts were all hits, and they brought some new ingredients with them - whipped cream, seasoning packet, dough, cheese, and Wowza! Bread.  Wowza!  In addition, they also needed the Hyperspace Mushroom, Arcane Mushroom, and Crystal Mushroom.

Anything Else?

We also introduced - though not in dialogues - the character Ophelia and a prompt featuring her that allows dextroluma who do it to turn into a mermaid form.  They earn an item called a 'Pearlescent Pin' that allows this.  The event period was also when we officially added Lockettes to the site.
