Happy Holidays, Burrowgatory! We're excited to announce a new update to the Pillow Pile, as well as some changes made to Succubuns.com image URLs that may affect off-site projects.

Pillow Pile Update

In the spirit of giving, players are now able to donate carats directly to the Pillow Pile, which will keep a running score of your donation total and reward you with small thank-you gifts at milestones. Donating items will also increase your score, with sellable items like foods counting for their carat price, and non-sellable items counting for a set donation price (typically half of their shop price).

Carat donations must be a minimum of 10 carats, and 10% of carats donated will be taken by the Pillow Pile. Please be aware that carat donations stay as lump sums, so if you want to donate a large amount of carats to be split between several users instead of all going to one, please make sure to separate them into multiple donations! As a reminder, players can only claim one donation from the Pillow Pile per day.

Players who donate at least 2,000 carats over the course of their time in Succubuns will be honored with the Philanthropist award!

We hope that this update will make donating unneeded items feel a little more rewarding, and will help to liven up the Pillow Pile with more goodies for all.

Image URL Protections

We've made some changes to how Succubuns.com's image hosting works, as some players have already noticed due to embedded official images no longer working off-site (such as on Google Sheets, Toyhouse, or other websites).

Earlier this month, a player or players used URL manipulation to discover images of unreleased content planned for next month, and publicly leaked it on an anonymous third party platform. While we've successfully had the images removed from the web and dealt with those responsible, this was an extremely unpleasant and taxing incident for our team—it happened at just about the worst possible time, and spoiled upcoming content that we've been eagerly waiting to release for over a year now.

In order to prevent this from happening again, we've implemented new image URL protections for Succubuns.com. Unfortunately, this means that you will no longer be able to open official Succubuns images in new tabs, or embed them directly onto sites other than Succubuns.com. In exchange, however, we won't need to worry about leaks like this in the future, and can continue to pre-upload content as it's created to prevent update maintenance from taking multiple hours.

Scrambling to clean up this incident and put new protections in place has been very costly for our small team, and all planned content creation has been on halt for the past two weeks as our admin team and coders were forced to focus on resolving the leaks and putting these new protections in place. As a result, it's very likely that several new content updates and features that were planned to release within the next month will need to be pushed back, which we deeply apologize for.

We respectfully ask that you do not attempt to seek out any unreleased content, as doing so will devalue the countless hours of hard work we put into making new updates as exciting as possible for our players. We hope you're all looking forward to the next update of the Fallen Down plot tomorrow, and we thank you as always for enjoying and supporting Succubuns!
