Woooo! We just shipped Beta 11 of The Music Lounge. It always gets crazy around ship time, and the unusually-full ashtray outside the office could attest to that.
My favorite new features in this release: brand new virtual stores including Kitson and Rocawear stores, a ton of new clothes and accessories, warehouse lofts apartment teaser, ability to buy Creds, new emotes, and a staff screencap camera that broadcasts onto big screens in-world. We're also back on 24/7.
See what else is new in Beta 11!
