Cactus has taken root in Masters of Mayhem!
With this update we are introducing a new playable character with six unlockable colour variants, each earned through a new achievement. We’ve also made improvements across gameplay, monsters, maps, menus, controllers, audio and progression.
NEW CHARACTER & ACHIEVEMENTS
Added the Cactus character with six unlockable colour variants!
Complete the following achievements to unlock each Cactus skin:
GREEN: LOST SPROUTS
Find and approach the green Cactus remains on Arctic, Temple and Sewer. Each map counts once.
BLUE: THIRST AID
Drop blue Cactus remains into the secret pond in Temple or the Goo in the Sewers spawn area.
PINK: PRICKLY PAIR
Bring two pink Cactus bodies to the planter in Temple or the couch in Sewer, then interact to lay them to rest. Nearby players who helped deliver them can also earn credit.
YELLOW: HERE COMES THE SUN
Bring yellow Cactus remains to the Temple obelisk. The send-off begins automatically once the obelisk is activated.
PURPLE: BLOOM SERVICE
Bring purple Cactus remains to the plant area in Arctic, then place all three flowers in any order.
Everyone who places a flower earns credit when the send-off finishes.
BLACK: PRICKULARITY
Use a Black Hole Crystal to consume black Cactus remains in its center, or eliminate a black Cactus player with it.
The Monster’s black-hole ability does not count. Matching dead Cactus players can also be used instead of the remains found around the maps, except for the Green Cactus achievement.
