So, seeing as the last character we've introduced with the last update was pretty strong, I thought it would be nice for the next one to be pretty chill and laid back and that's what this dude is all about!

As the description says, Smooth is all about the parties and his hot dog business! Even when he attacks somebody he tries to put on some slick moves (those were fun to make, haha)! If you leave him alone he will like you more over time automatically and give you some nice discounts on the stuff he is selling in his shops. Talking about shops, his special hot dog stand that only he can build are sure to make you some good money if you upgrade them!

Also, just like John Hoe, when Smooth is on his "HOME" Tile he will get a special card which is a consumeable item that can give him some HP back. Basically it's like the Potato card you get when you come across a Potato Farm, just a bit better!

All in all, Smooth is a well balanced character to play as and you should be able to go for any of the 3 victory goals, though the Cash / Zentra Goals are probably easier to attain because of the hot dog stands. This dude also really likes his Liquor (like MC) and I made some tweaks to the alcohol system in the game. Basically, the drinks you get which will damage your health now have their buffs lasting longer. It seemed like the price of sacrificing some HP to get those stat buffs was a bit too high for what you got, so some of the drinks needed a severe buff!

Up next we have a new Event Card:

This one is basically bad news for everyone. No money = No winning, I guess the only time this card would benefit anyone is if they're really close to winning with Zentra / Fights and their opponent is about to gain a Cash Victory, this will put them 3 turns away from said victory. Do note that characters which prostitute themselves will still get money every round!

Last but not least we have a new 3 Player map! :3

Called the "Fun Isle", the special thing about this map is that there are no bus stops here! So unless you land on that one Manhole Tile, or get teleported to some place via events, the direction you decided to go will be the one you're sticking with. Also worth noting is that at the bottom of the map are 4 different neutral shops you can visit which can help you out greatly.

And to close things off, here a sneak peek of the next character for the next update! This one is going to be a very interesting one! > : 3
