This weekend we made a booboo, and for a short time, prismatic bolted vees were available at the low, low price of zero energy on the Supply Depot.

Attention, knights!

As you may recall, tortodrones disappeared from the Clockworks a long time ago and, apart for some stray shells here and there, they have not been seen by the Spiral Order for quite some time. Investigations into the cause were inconclusive, but Spiral HQ suspects fiends are somehow involved.

Now, the tortodrones are being called on the Long Migration. Even the Strangers do not know the reasons for this mysterious event but these giant, robotic tortoises can be glimpsed traveling through the clockworks.

Changes
- Increased the chance of finding Radiant Fire Crystals at earlier depths
- Shield bash can now be used to break blocks
- Knight Tylen has been added to the Haven Bazaar to give a guided tour of the vendors and services.
- The Minimap now shows the walkable path in a darker color.

Bugfixes
- Added one way doors in Firestorm Citadel Charred Court
- The following obsolete achievements will no longer be displayed except for knights who have previously obtained them:

- Minor Miner
- Moderate Miner
- Major Miner
- Marvelous Miner

ATTENTION:

Kozma is holding flash sales in the Supply Depot through February 23! Check in often, as the discounted items will be changing frequently. If you're vigilant, you might even see a previously unreleased item up for sale...

Happy bargain hunting, knights!

Hello everyone,

It looks like there is going to be further delay on the much-anticipated Gunner Update. We originally estimated that this would be out to you in November, and then we updated our estimate to January (this month). Unfortunately, it is still in the works. We're really sorry about this.

I first began work on Spiral Knights seven years ago. Since then, there have been many happy surprises, many big changes. And now, I am here to tell you all that another big change for me is underway.

As of today, I have resigned from my position at Three Rings and will be pursuing a new adventure in independent development.

I wanted to take a moment and talk to you about what that means for Spiral Knights.
