Back in June, we ran a Design A Hat competition and received some fantastic submissions to be created in game. We’re happy to finally announce our winners:
• Mushroom • Charmander • Dan • Mericlen • Biscuit • Alex • Bitcoin
We’d like to apologise for the long delay in getting these made, but we’re pleased to say they’ll be delivered to the winners shortly. Thanks so much for your patience, and congratulations to everyone who took part! 🎁
Happy Wednesday, folks! We’ve just rolled out a small quality of life update. Take a peek at what’s new below.
👁️ Item Preview
You can now preview catalogue items in a larger, clearer view. Only a handful of items support this feature for now, but we’ll be expanding it over time. Whenever an item has a preview available, you’ll spot a little eye icon, click it, and the item will pop up in a separate window.
It’s not try before you buy, it’s… preview before you… review? We’re still workshopping the rhyme.
📦 Layering Rugs
You can now layer rugs. That’s it. That’s the feature. Go forth and stack rugs to your heart’s content.
🛠️ Bug Fixes & Changes
Fixed an issue with walking near Hubble Mine
Minor UI improvements
Added new quest logic

It is that time of year when snow drifts softly through the Hubble air, carollers belt away down every street (even if you pretend you are not home) and there is plenty of eggnog to go around, mostly because let’s be honest… no one actually likes it. Amid all the cheer and the festive chaos, it is time to meet Pepper, who has found herself in a rather sparkly predicament and is counting on you for help!
❄️ Quests
With every event we host, there are always quests waiting to be completed for lovely rewards. Speak to Pepper in the centre of Hubble to get started. And remember… try not to mash through the dialogue. Reading is important or something. There are 9 quests to complete for this event!
Little tip: chopping down Pine trees in Hubble Forest may occasionally drop Ornaments you can give to Pepper 👀
🎅🏻 Exclusive Christmas 2025 Badge
By completing the entire quest line, you will earn the exclusive Christmas 2025 badge. Look closely and you will notice it is a cute festive Temporal Egg.
🎁 Advent Calendar
Log in every day from the 1st to the 25th of December to unwrap your festive items.
You will find the Advent Calendar at the top-right of your screen as the very first icon. Enjoy the goodies!
🎄 Christmas Items
We have added 9 brand-new Christmas-themed items, along with a few items from last year to the Hubble Shop catalogue, so you can start decorating your Spaces with proper festive cheer.
P.S. We have also given the Christmas trees a little refresh, plus a few new variations. They are looking much better now!
🧊 Winter Items
We have also added a brand-new Winter category with 5 wonderfully wintry items. Just be careful… I heard if you sit on the Ice Armchair for too long, actually, never mind.
And do not forget to share your festive Spaces on Discordand tag us on social media, so we can spread the cheer to the rest of the world!
💡 Miscellaneous
The non festive Lamp Post has been added to the Outdoor section in the catalogue
It’s time to log in and enjoy the festivities in Ticuto. Watch the large Christmas tree slowly fill with decorations as you hand in more ornaments. It’s rather magical, really⛄
We’re excited to finally add Skin Tones and Female Avatars with a few improvements and behind the scenes additions which will be coming soon!
📌 Skin Tones
We have added six new skin tone options: light, deep, medium, pale, green and blue.
Players can now visit the Hubble Salon to change their skin tone, where a new Tanning Bed item has also been introduced.
♀️ Female Avatar
A female avatar option is now available, so your character is no longer limited to a single gender. New players will now be greeted by a customisation page where they can choose their gender and adjust their appearance before entering Ticuto.
Existing players can change their gender by visiting the website and navigating to My Account → Update Account, where the new options are available. After updating, you’ll need to exit the game and wait a few minutes for the changes to take effect.
🛠️ Bug Fixes & Changes
Fixed bug with digging loot
Changed the way placing wall items works to make it easier to align
Updated wardrobe
Updated avatars to add support for masking
Optimized egg spawning
Fixed bug with clicking furniture
