The Gorilla Enclave has been updated with 7 new decors, all with a Balkan theme. As promised, the Enclave shop items will expand towards the whole world with unique decors, because our gorillas came from a zoo, and they want to share diversity with our lions. The following decors will now appear in the Gorilla Enclave:

* Marbled Polecat
* Serbian Tricolor
* Roe Deer
* Syrian Woodpecker
* Bosnian Kurjak
* Bosnian Lily
* Balkan Mountains

There will definitely be more sets to come, as we slowly expand into the world! We cannot promise that these decors will stay forever in the Gorilla Enclave, but they will surely be there for a long while! We're spacing out themes a bit over time, so you guys have time to gather the Monkey Teeth for both applicators and decors.

Mars Opposition Background!
On July 27th, up until July 31st and its closest approach, Mars has entered into Perihelic Opposition - an alignment with the Sun and Earth where it is directly behind us, but also the closest it's been in 60,000 years!
To celebrate this special time, we'll be having an annual sale in Monkey Business, where the Mars: Perihelic Opposition background will sell for 1000 SB from July 27th until July 31st, every time the Celestial event is ending. We agreed with the suggestion that this really fits our theme - thank you to the community!

Mars, the symbol of war, is looking closely at you, mortal lions!

Hotfixes this week:
