Daily Alpha Update: Apple (Pie) Launcher

Posted by Fat McStink on January 3, 2014 at 2:00 PM

Well howdy there! I'm Fat McStink, as some of you may remember. Today's my birthday, so I figured that I'd host my own birthday party for all of you. It's not like I've ever gone to a party hosted by someone else!



For dessert at my party, I was going to make my sister's famous apple pie, and make enough for everyone. Since my guest list is as tall as I am, that meant I had to make a lot of apple pies. So, I got myself a couple Grand Piano's worth of flour, a mountain of butter, and a metric ton of apples.

So, since last Wednesday, I've been breaking my back peeling apples, cutting apples, and baking all of these pies for my party. But, as it turns out, having the kind of apples I got be frozen for a few days makes most of 'em turn sour. Well, after I figured this out, I went to go and test each of the pies I made. Turns out only one pie wasn't sour. So I thought to myself, "Well, they'll all have to share."

So here comes the time of my party, and guess how many people I had to feed:
...one.

But don't worry about me, I got through it. I may have cried in my pie a little, but I was able to finish it. So this left me with just one problem:

find kinder friends what to do with all of these pies?

So, wandering the streets on my birthday, all alone, I found this new toon in town: Muddy Paws. I asked him if he would be the only person to do something kind for me on my birthday would be able to get rid of this massive pile of apple pies that I had. He said he could, so I showed him where they are, and headed home to go lay down and think.



...hey. So I'm feeling a little better, mostly because Muddy Paws got rid of all of those pies in a really cool way. He figured out how to build some sort of "Apple Launcher" of sorts. No idea what he meant by that, but he said that alpha testers can now download it on the Play Page.

January 3, 2014 [ttr-alpha-g55e8511]

Maintenance
• Whitelist update. Removed a few words that were being abused, and added a ton of new ones.

Features
• Released Toontown Rewritten for Mac OS X 10.8 and up.

NOTE: This launcher only works on OS X versions 10.8 and up. We're working hard to add support for versions 10.6 and up, and we'll let you know when we do.

I actually didn't understand this until i read the Features list. Nice one sir max

A pie launcher? Sounds cool! It would be cool if you could take them into the VP and use them.

Picklyjoe said on January 3, 2014 at 2:16 PM
Thank you. I know this is not a big update, feature wise, but I have been looking forward for this for a long time. I hope it works with my computer. The apple seems to have bite in it and a weird floating stem on top.

Lily Sparklepoof said on January 3, 2014 at 2:31 PM
Haha I took me a while to get what Apple Launcher ment.. *faceplam*

Mr. Toon said on January 3, 2014 at 2:34 PM

Princess Trixie Rhinosplat said on January 3, 2014 at 2:54 PM
I'd have to say I'm very impressed! And I'd really like to thank everyone working on Toontown Rewritten! You guys have finally made it interesting and the news posts actually spark interest! Can't wait to play!! :)

Heriotza said on January 3, 2014 at 2:56 PM
Even though im not a toon yet I would be very greatful if you guys could do something about toontown always being day I thought it might be more fun if there was a Day and a Night :)

Doctor Spike Dynobumper said on January 3, 2014 at 3:03 PM
Good job getting cross platforming done! (I know how hard that can be...). Hope you guys will someday support Linux unlike Disney... Keep up the Toontastic work!

Ant Samantha said on January 3, 2014 at 3:11 PM
Ahhh, thank you Fat McStink!!! I was getting really tired of going downstairs to play on my nana's Windows computers! Happy Birthday, by the way! If you look at my computer, I thought the apples was one of the ones you talked about and tried to take a bite out of it. :( Now I know...

Duke Graham said on January 3, 2014 at 4:24 PM
When I saw the name of this update, I thought that they'd finally implemented gags after nearly 10 weeks of alpha.

Coolix Cat said on January 3, 2014 at 4:38 PM
Sounds like you guys are hard at work! Thanks for the daily updates! :D

Peanut Nuttymuffin said on January 3, 2014 at 7:09 PM
Oh boy! I really can't wait until ToonTown Rewritten is released for everyone ! Thankyou TTR Staff :)

Cheshire said on January 3, 2014 at 7:20 PM
Nice! I don't even have a Mac but it makes me happy to know you updated TTR for a Mac, it's kinda unfair how some things won't download if you have a Mac. :(

said on January 3, 2014 at 8:49 PM
Hope you have a toontastic birthday FatMcStink!

Fireball said on January 3, 2014 at 9:08 PM
No this isn't the famous fireball speaking but I just wanted to say that I am truly amazed by the fact that the staff has gotten as far as they have in this amount of time keep up the good work :D

Dark Chocolate Chip said on January 3, 2014 at 10:27 PM

ApolloLaugher said on January 3, 2014 at 10:29 PM

I've got to say, that was creative. Nice job team!

Cool Hector Zillercrash said on January 3, 2014 at 11:36 PM
I've been playing toontown for 10 full years, since age 3. I was devastated to see that toontown was closed, but then I saw the light! Toontown Rewritten! I'm soooooo happy to see that toontown will be coming back. I can't wait for the release. Not asking but.... It would be awesome if I could help with testing, since i've had so much experience with toontown, just asking. :) ~ Love Cool Hector Zillercrash!

Why not make a blacklist, you don't have to add too many words, and to disable words you add them to that list.

Daffy MacBoom said on January 4, 2014 at 2:00 AM
Sweet! Keep up the good work guys!

Rhinotoon said on January 4, 2014 at 5:15 AM

Louie said on January 4, 2014 at 5:23 AM
That's great! My sister has an apple computer and she wouldn't be happy if she couldn't play!

Blue Seas said on January 4, 2014 at 5:25 AM
I think my brain really wants to play TTR. This morning, I was quietly reading a book. I could've sworn I heard the eek of my toon rabbit. @.@

Miss Marigold McMuffin said on January 4, 2014 at 8:08 AM
A while ago I had to cancel my Toontown membership. I went online today to see information about possibly joining again and was so upset to learn that Toontown had shut down! I can't wait until you guys release Toontown Rewritten to the public!

For all you people who can't wait to play, one more update means one step closer to public release!

Nightshade said on January 4, 2014 at 10:14 AM
It took me a really long time to figure out the "Apple Launcher" I used to read the news that Disney posted but it was honestly a bore to read, I look forward to these articles every day because they're full of updates and good humor. :) Keep up the good work TTR!

Funny Quackers said on January 4, 2014 at 10:22 AM
Happy birthday!!!! Hope it was tons of fun for you!!!!! :D

Thanks for all you do! My three year old is still pretending to be in cog fights (like yesterday while waiting to get his hair cut - the other customers thought it was great!). Just now he asked me to write a comment and tell you how happy he is that the toons are still fighting back and he can't wait until they beat the cogs again!! Thank you thank you thank you for making our day!!
