Welcome to the seventh edition of Pixel Progression!

We just released an update, freemium rewards are coming soon, oh my!

Update

We just released an update that includes a bit of valentines content. You have about a day left from this post to find it all for free. If you missed out, you can find everything in the gem store later this week.

We hope you enjoyed all the free skins we released! Both classic OG skins and new ones alike, we love skins.

Vote Replacement - Freemium

We will be releasing Freemium rewards within the next week, as a replacement for top.gg. Here's some info:

  1. Top.gg rewards will still exist for a few weeks, to help transition people over, but they will be reduced in value.
  2. Freemium is described below, please read the caveats to better understand it before asking support mods.
  3. Freemium directly supports us via ad revenue, unlike top.gg's ads that only supported them.

Freemium is nearly here!

Freemium is a free to use vote reward replacement as we phase out Top.gg. You will visit the site, get some rewards, hit claim and move on about your day.

Unlike 12 hours for voting, you can get Freemium rewards every 6 hours!

Please take note of this screenshot. Freemium Screenshot

Things to note:

  1. Multiple ads. This is what allows us to justify all these free rewards. Please support us by not having an ad blocker!
  2. You get 3 guaranteed rewards, then 1 FREE reward from a random selection that is different per person. If you would like more than 1 of the random choices, you may opt into watching a 35 second video add per extra reward.
  3. There is a dedicated loot table for freemium, that we'll play with and adjust a few times close to launch to make sure it's both rewarding and realistic. You can see that below.
  4. The loot is different per person, and you cannot refresh to reroll it. You must claim it to reroll it for the next freemium rewards.
  5. There are streaks. Each streak number adds 0.1% to your "luck" for this loot table. So keep up a streak and you'll get better chance at the rarer stuff.
  6. Streaks reset if you go over 12 hours since your last freemium redemption. This is harsh on purpose, because we have some GREAT rare rewards and we want them earned, not easily farmed.
  7. Freemium does not count towards vote levels. Starting next month, vote levels will be changed to accommodate a single vote site existing (dbl).
  8. We will automatically DM you when your freemium rewards are 2 minutes away from being claimable again so you don't forget!

Finally

We are very excited about Freemium. We think this is finally the perfect balance between rewarding you guys, and benefiting us. No more top.gg nonsense.

As I said before, we will iterate on this to make sure this stays fun and rewarding, while also balanced and stable. You can expect multiple updates (buffs or nerfs) as needed in the weeks following release.

Also mentioning again, we will release this within the next week pending alpha testing for it going well.

Community Shoutouts

Something I'd like to do each time we post one of these, is take a moment to call out cool things happening in the community.
