The brand new replace not solely provides the climate occasions, but additionally makes use of them as a vessel to carry again Tangle and Dervish slimes, two sorts from the earlier sport that had been lacking from Rainbow Island up up to now.

Even the thunderstorms are cute and comfortable, as lightning strikes may cause adjustments to the in-game world, even producing assets if participant character Beatrix is close to to the place it occurs.
