Hello Orbsters,

I thought that it was about time that we outlined some more of our plans for the future, starting first with what we are planning for Halloween.

On the 22nd of October we will be putting in place our Halloween release. Some of the game on the site are getting a Halloween make over, some more drastic than other. I’m not telling you which games you’ll have to find that out for yourselves. The games will have a Halloween theme to them and will also have a Halloween achievement to do with that theme. These achievements will only be available for the 2 weeks from the 22nd of October. On the 5th of November, the games will change back and the achievements will no longer be available (at least not until Halloween next year). So make sure that you check out the service over this period and try to collect them all.

We’ll also be putting another multiplayer game live on the site on the 22nd. It’s a game that has similarities to the way Brick a Brac works its multi-player experience, its fast, fun and what you do affects the players around you.

On the 5th we have a real treat for you. I’m not going to say too much about this one except that the game has lots of items to research and collect and that the strap line for the game is “Fight of the Living Dead”. You can work the rest out for yourselves.

For the rest of the year, we have the return of a Jagex classic, not for those afraid of heights, a strategy game based on the RuneScape world and a sporting game of all things; all of which will have multiplayer as a game mode.

As for next year well the production team are working themselves into a frenzy with some of the plans we have. Pirate Lords of course, another game similar to Dungeon Assault (at least in its perpetual nature) and a great fun game involving a fridge.

So, have fun with Brick a Brac and stay tuned for the rest of the year.

Have fun,

Mod_Korpz.

Cant wait for the strategy game. Halloween achievements should be cool too.

Good stuff lies in wait.

I have seen the future and it is awesome!

The Halloween achievements are interesting. I can't wait to unlock some of them. It think that it's cool that Jagex in bringing holidays to FunOrb. It's going to be sweet! :)

The new games are going to be cool too. I can't wait for the one that has to do with RuneScape. Hopefully I can put my knowledge of the game to use. I need something to use it on.

The rest of the year is going to be good. I can't wait to see what Jagex throws at us in 2009! :)

Edit: By the way, I think that Brick-a-***c is awesome and fun! :D

AWESOME!!!! Can't wait! :D

“Fight of the Living Dead”
I'm getting a mental picture of a 'Terraphoenix' meets 'Zombie Dawn' game. Possibly a RTS? :O

"...a Jagex classic, not for those afraid of heights..."
Hmmm...Vertigo 2?

"...a strategy game based on the RuneScape world..."
I have a feeling this one is going to be a huge hit considering most of FunOrb are players from RS. Anyone want to make a bet with me? :P

"...a sporting game of all things..."
Random guess: Golf? Golf is an staple on gaming sites like this one.

"...Pirate Lords of course, another game similar to Dungeon Assault (at least in its perpetual nature)..."
YES!!! Perpetual worlds are so awesome!

"...and a great fun game involving a fridge."
...O_o


Jagex employees, thanks for all the great updates so far and all the ones in the making. *Gives kudos* ^_^

Fridge... fridge... fridge... What could it be!?!?!? And if that Living Dead comment is anything similar to zombie dawn (A sequel perhaps?) then SWEET!

Btw for all those that don't know what "Vertigo" is, it's a game that can be accessed from Jagex's corporate site.

I'm so looking forward to the Holliday-only achievements. They will make me go back to games I probably have been neglecting for too long and knowing after the period nobody can get them anymore makes getting them much more a prequisite. ( Hope this is the right word )

Great post, I hoped to find info on the brick a ***c thread but it wasn't their. Good too see a thread here! Every month, FunOrb is getting better and better. Great job to all the mods! Keep it up!
