Posted April 1, 2020 I forgot about April Fool's last year, but I'm here for it again this year! So happy to not only get another upside-down, but also a 2nd gen Tinsel from my other upside-down today! Finally this year has brought some good stuff. Share this post Link to post
Posted April 1, 2020 (edited) OMG I've always missed this event in the past, and actually remembered today...and I won my first upside down Mint! 😁 *dances* Also, the new and improved dragons are hilarious. (I actually want to keep the Alt Dark Green ones like this haha) Edited April 1, 2020 by Vodkapirate Share this post Link to post

Posted April 1, 2020 (edited) The Pillow dragon looks even fluffier!! Now I want to cuddle it all day. Edit: I take that back. ALL...I repeat ALL of the dragons that got re-drawn look amazing. Edited April 1, 2020 by warriorjames Got a better look at all the dragons for today Share this post Link to post

Posted April 1, 2020 PETITION TO KEEP THESE AROUND FOR ALL OF APRIL!! Let's face it - These are AWESOME! All the kudos to the artists! These adorable designs instantly brought a smile to my face, brightened my day, healed my heart, and my crops flourished. Quite frankly, I needed it. A lot of people need it. Which is why I'd like to propose that these alternate dragons hang around for the entire month of April. To help spread a little joy to a world that desperately needs it. I know this is supposed to be a limited time offer, but I really think it would help a lot of folks in our community right now. And I'm all for helping others, so what do the rest of you think? TJ? Can we make this a thing for a little longer please? Share this post Link to post

I love those air whales! Share this post Link to post
Posted April 1, 2020 I didn't know this was a thing and clicked randomly and now have an upsideown green egg I'm so confused lmao Share this post Link to post

Or the very humorous 'today' version. I'd love to have these around longer. Share this post Link to post

Posted April 1, 2020 Wait a minute, is the event banner a derp version of Subeta's Bonfire event? Looks a lot like it... Also, is this a Flowie reference? Share this post Link to post
Posted April 1, 2020 The nihostrifes' new sprites are speaking to me a lot. I do like the stratos too, and definitely need more sky potatoes on my scroll. The sunstone update is fun, too. My lumina, Saint Narcissus, absolutely needs to keep his new sprite indefinitely. It's perfect for him! Thanks to all the spriters involved, this is awesome! Share this post Link to post
