Back in November, we launched Castle Catastrophe, Witch It's 4th map contest! Following the release of 200+ new creative mode structures and material overrides, participants now had more creative options than ever while building their contest entries. 🏰

"Castle Catastrophe" was the contest theme - participants were tasked with creating a castle-themed map that has been struck by a disaster. Map creators had the freedom to interpret this theme however they like, while remaining true to it's core intent. As a result, we had received arguably our most unique, diverse, and incredible selection of entries we've ever had the privilege of judging! 🤯

Each winning map is now implemented into Witch It and playable on the official Servers.


🌐We also added a New Utility Prop in Creative Mode called World Properties which allows you the configuration of light, fog and even the Music (only available on empty template maps)

And ofcourse a small little tease with 3 new Creative Mode structures honoring the map contest winners & the additional awards winners.

✉️There is also a new Feedback Button in the main menu that sends you to a Feedback form direct in the game.(useful for console players)

Have fun playin! and enjoy the new Creative Options.
