Hey hey everyone! Welcome back to another month of GameMaker news!
I. Shiny New Spawn
We have a new main spawn for everyone to enjoy! This map’s theme is Arcade, with so many awesome and fun video game references! Can you name them all?
The new spawn was built by a bunch of members of our little community itself, me included! Make sure to explore all the hard work when then spawn is available. Great job to everyone!
II. Featured Map
Aaaaaand for this month, our featured map is… Flag Domination: Warehouse!
At least a few times a week of late, the community has come together to log on and play this PVP game. The map was built and coded by a lovely team of eleven, so when you come to visit, make sure to read the wall of credits to thank the community members who’ve brought us this great map!

Map 11: THREE Updates in May?!?
1. Yoda’s Swamp: New Legendary!
Wow, what a strong start! 
Not only did three new Ultra Legendaries get released on the very first update of the month- the Luga’s Wide Net, the Ultra Legendary Angel Cloak and the Saint Heavenly Hair-, but so did the Fabled version of Yoda’s Bow?!? 
Most importantly, though, a brand new Hell Ultra Rare AND the latest Jedi Legendary Rare have ALSO been introduced to Prison: the Imp Brain and the Yoda Legs! 
Luga’s Wide Net: Lower cooldown, and more rewards!
Angel Cloak: Convert nearby netherrack to quartz. Upgrade copper ore mined to quartz drops.
Saint Heavenly Hair: Twice as high betting cap compared to ultra. + Even more money from slots - 2x instead of 1.5x. + Get a bit better stuff from finding emerald blocks than before.
Yoda Bow: Kill a fish with this to apply rod to the left, 60% chance not to remove durability. + 25% chance per fish killed to spawn a Salmon. + Arrows track players and teleport victims to you.
Imp Brain: Halved XP cost in thrift. + Whenever you get an Ultra Boost Pass, there’s a chance it’ll gives you 20 minutes of scavenger too.
Yoda Legs: Wear to convert your bait to mega bait - even faster. + Every x catches while worn, get some exta stuff to spawn from fishing, there is a small one, a medium one and a huge one.
2. The Conclave: New Crates!
That’s right: a new type of crates- the Pope Crates- has been made available in the MunchyMC shop! 
From them, you can receive a vast array of items, like the Communion Wine, the Pope Legs, the Pope Robe, the Pope Slippers, the Pope’s Desk and the Sacred Candle. 
Thanks to this very same update, a new Heaven Ultra Rare, the Saint Gem, as well as a new Hell Epic Rare, Moloch’s Glass Destroyer, were released. 
Finally, an incredibly long list of new Ultra Legendaries were added to the game: the Ultra Legendary Jar Jar Binks Grin, the Ultra Legendary Yoda Trident, the Ultra Legendary Columbus Shirt, the Ultra Legendary Columbus Legs, the Ultra Legendary Imp Skin, the Maximum Hyper Drive and the Ultra Legendary Anakin Skywalker Hand. 
Communion Wine: Hit someone to give them 10s of bleed, snap their neck and some nausea and weakness 1 for a bit.
Pope Legs: Hold sneak while in water to spawn some undead entities.
Pope Robe: A portion of magma blocks you go near become chiseled quartz. + Diamond and emerald ore mined convert to packed ice drops.
Pope Slippers: Right click end stone in your farm to plant any mescaline possible. + Auto-convert any refined mescaline in your inv to chiselled quartz blocks.
Pope’s Desk: Shift left/right click to convert your semi and epic rares to something that slots them all for +1 extra. + Craft 2 notes and scrolls to get a papal book, can be consumed for 2x natural chest enchantments for a duration.
Sacred Candle: Same as milk & honey but with higher chance to boost your crops with yield (does not stack with milk&honey effect.
Saint Gem: 50% chance from any block in d1mine mined during a rush event to drop twice as much! Can be anywhere in inventory.
Moloch’s Glass Destroyer: Blast glass in the melon mine!
Jar Jar Binks Grin: Double fishing experience, double fish effect duration and auto-sell resources for 40% more as you catch fish.
Yoda Trident: Wherever this lands, teleport to it and gain absorption 2 for 2- seconds.
Columbus Shirt: Gain Speed 2 and Jump Boost 2 while worn, but gain greater effects while worn on Earth.
Columbus Legs: Double jump for an ability.
Maximum Hyper Drive: Speed 3 immediately, faster speed upgrades, speed al the way to 10, lower right click cooldown.
Anakin Skywalker Hand: Keep in your hotbar for a resource magnet, even further radius when held.
3. Jar Jar’s New Rares: New Everything!
Last, but not least, the longest update of the month! 
To begin, a new Heaven Mythical, Moses’ Staff was added, just last week, along with Beezlebub’s Eye, a brand new Hell Legedary and the Sith Kyber Crystal, a Sith Ultra. 
We were also fortunate enough to receive two new Fishing Rares (the Demon’s Scope and the General Grievous Rod) AND Creature Rares (one of them being the Imp’s Satchel)! 
Of course, this wouldn’t be a complete list without the one and only Varmetek’s Furnace, a new Vote Rare that is now accessible through the Vote Crates. Additionally, many Ultras (and a Creature Rare) now have an upgraded version! 
It’s the case for the Ultra Legendary Jar Jar Binks Vest, the Ultra Legendary Jar Jar Binks Legs, the Jar Jar Binks Feet, the Ultra Legendary Jar Jar Binks Ear, the Ultra Legendary Mammoth Meat and the Ultra Legendary Snoke’s Ring. 
Finally, there is now also a Fabled version of two Legendaries: the Fabled King Midas Pickaxe and the Fabled Jesus Legs. 
Beezlebub’s Eye: When you go near an enchanted chest, it keeps adding random enchant onto it until an ultra enchant is on the chest. All zones +2.
Sith Kyber Crystal: Right click in your farm to harvest all your angelberries - 50% of which drop refined crack instead of refined angelberries (after any DV nightshade buff).
Demon’s Scope: Zoom and sneak or sneak and zoom at players for different abilities! Also, hit someone to blind them briefly.
General Grievous Rod: Get 2/3/4x of whatever you catch (while not on cooldown). + Fish until you get 3 minutes of Bad Omen (then begin cd) - cant get Small XP when you have Bad Omen.
Imp’s Satchel: If you put any stackable looting things (nuclear warheads, stackable semi rares/epic rares, prestige point packs, UL fragments/shards/fb and shard), then it will automatically collect those (only the ones you had inside already, before going out).
Varmetek’s Furnace: After opening mine chests, they turn into magma blocks.
Ultra Legendary Jar Jar Binks Vest: From catching a zoomfish, on your next FIVE (instead of four) catches get +6 additional catches (instead of +3) with the rod used.
Ultra Legendary Jar Jar Binks Legs: When you get a rockfish, also get some nuclear boost!
Ultra Legendary Jar Jar Binks Feet: Fly faster in water, regen 3 in water, and get some bonus stuff during stormy nights!
Jar Jar Binks Ear: Double fishing experience, double fish effect duration and auto-sell resources for 40% more as you catch fish.
Mammoth Meat: Consume to either gain strength 3 or speed 6 for a short duration.
Ultra Legendary Snoke’s Ring: You get 2x forged rares instead of one when you get any forged stuff and, also, you get a Satan Silt if you found a forged Ultra or Palpatine Powder if you found a forged Legendary.
Fabled King Midas Pickaxe: Drops Ultra Shards as well, now, and has Fortune 40 when using Midas’ Touch ability.
Fabled Jesus Legs: You can get 2x more holy water and maybe even more.
Thanks to @Wu_Knows’s for her very helpful item guide, which contains much information about items’ abilities, and @Tuxmux for providing some of the item hints listed above as well.
For more information about those updates, you can use the /cl or /changelog commands in-game.
