AJ UPDATE(S): NEW ADVENTURES, NEW LAND, NEW DIFFICULTY, AND MORE!

Hey guys! I'm back! And it appears I missed a MAJOR update!

Well, first things first. NEW LAND!

Welcome to KIMBARA OUTBACK!


Its design is very similar to Coral Canyons in essence; I'm actually surprised that these two were located at near opposite ends of Jamaa, and that Appondale is nowhere near either of them. If they were thinking about Real Life, then they would be near each other. Oh well, I suppose it is a Fantasy World Map. :P

Anyway, the Kimbara Outback is very similar to the real-life Australian Outback. And it appears, at the moment, to have room for two new stores or side-rooms. We'll see what those turn out to be later!

However, with the addition of Kimbara, other things had to change. The tried-and-true World Map has been changed to make room for Kimbara below Jamaa Township (which now resides in exactly the same spot as the Return of the Alphas video's final camera position). Now, instead of being drawn in a semi-realistic style, the map has gone fully cartoon. Somewhat sad, but there's nothing we can do about it. :(

Kimbara Outback also has a new Journey Book page, with the prize being a spiffy WINDMILL! I was able to get all of the objects in less than ten minutes; it's a really easy page.

Koalas have returned from their expedition! Everyone can be koalas again!

Some Adventures now have a HARD MODE, where you can face stronger Phantoms and Phantoms with special abilities!
Also, Cosmo is now looking for a new Adventure, meaning that a new one will be created, and the previous one will (probably) be unlocked for non-members.
Another thing is that members can now display their adventuring level all throughout Jamaa, instead of just in the Adventure Base Camp.

There's a new Kangaroo exhibit...

Tunnel Town has been released, and apparently has climbed to the Top 20 Games on iTunes!

I think that's it for this week!
Bye for now!

Attention WCC Readers: Late Updates Notice for July, and Poll Information

Hello everyone!

I just wanted to inform all of you that I will be gone for most of July, with limited and/or very spotty computer access. I have a summer job starting on the 6th, and immediately after that finishes (two weeks), I'm going on vacation for another two weeks.

Animal Jam is set to update on July 11th and 25th, approximately. I will not be around for either of those dates, so there will be no update post from me.

However (and I have no idea really why this is), any columnist can do an update post. Most of you seem to think that it's an 'elite honor' to do the Animal Jam update post, but I don't really care for that matter. It makes my work easier and allows me to work on other projects, such as essays about games, comment moderation (there's been an influx of offensive anons posting recently, so I've had to get rid of them), and my work on other sites.


On another note, five people have already voted on the poll I mentioned in this post, including myself. If you're out there and you haven't voted, I would suggest doing so, as there probably will be no chance of going back after the results are in.

The end date of the poll has also been pushed back to the 31st, since I had the impressive oversight to set the end date to a time when I'm not here. XD

At the current moment, trends are suggesting that we will be focusing on these three games, though. :D

I guess that's about it.

Bye for now!
