![]() Making 2D game modes work with assignments is going to be a huge technical challenge. But assignments don’t take place in a 2D game mode, meaning XP is not obtainable right now when completing homework.īecause of this, it makes sense for us to work on adding 2D game modes to assignments - and that’s what we plan to do. And our latest Cosmetics update allows students to earn XP in 2D game modes. Later this year, we’re going to be releasing a brand new version of assignments rebuilt from the ground up to work with 2D game modes.Įver since we first launched Fishtopia, one of the most popular requests has been to allow students to play Fishtopia for homework. Here’s to you and all you’ve overcome in another challenging school year. ![]() Thank you for all of your support and inspiration, this school year and every other. You can see everything we added this school year here !
