I feel like this update was really elegantly done and Mod Flippy deserves a shout out for making it happen. The event was super short and with a guide almost trivial, so those who just wanted the reward and didn't want to participate could spam the space bar and be done in minutes, and to those of us who wanted to really enjoy the event the dialogue was absolutely gold. The concept was funny and well executed and it was exactly the 10 minute break from barb fishing I wanted yesterday.

The cutscene was also hilarious, the outfit fits the event, it was just the right amount of satire, and the additional easter egg to make the costume 'spookier' is brilliant.

Really, really well done Mod Flippy.

First off, wow. Massive thank you, it makes me really happy the update was received well.

Secondly, this update came from the whole Old School team. I did the design and developed the update, but there's so much more that goes into an update like this.

West made amazing rewards and Gee made the super cute Goblins. Whole team (even mods outside OSRS) helped me playtest and gave me crucial, very necessary feedback. Curse fixed many nasty bugs and spelling mistakes and Ash and Roq helped me hotfix bugs that went into live. Additionally, Kieren, Ed, Lenny and Husky helped me out with the training I needed to do it in the first place.

The reason I'm saying this is because we all try to give you these type of updates, to make you guys happy. I'm incredibly proud we managed to meet that goal with this one, so really: Thank you, again.

Enjoy your weekend gamers, and remember to do your farm runs.
