note: this one again I wanted to give it a unique name like chocolate groove but GGG and others might not get the vibe im getting, how you like the hideout, and while I recommend checking the video due to my potato laptop being potato it is a low frame video but still better showcase than pictures.

Celestial Sanctuary

This is like 99% free decorations (apart from the celestial tileset). The paid ones are mostly pets, some lights, and falling leaves, so the hideout should be almost identical without them.

Wanted to do more to it but I hit the 750 doodad limit.

Good luck to all the entries :)

Theme is kind of self explanatory. No MTX decos except the Infinite Abyss hideout and the portal effect. Hideout is pretty much capped with 750 decorations (pls GGG add a counter to see how many you have placed).

EXILE Takeover

based on Coral Hideout

Was a former Miner/Pirate Island. Abandoned after garstly Storms that wreaked havoc - as one can see at Zanas place in Boatwreck Cove - hit the Island. Exiles came in pretty much recently. Tidied the place up as good as it was possible in the short amount of time; there is still some Piles of Trash and Rubble that waits to be sorted. Most of the trash was dumped over the ledge by the Mine. Helena and the rest brought in some Supplies (most still in Crates). Helena also took care of some Accomodations and resting places. Tane, Nico and Alva are discussing the next Steps by the Grave of an ancient Hero; so do Helena and Kirac as they study some ancient texts. Einhar and Navali talk about the giant Pirate Treasure that was found in the South of the Island. The Pirates transported the Treasure via Lorrys on Tracks. Nobody is sure why they put it there, but an Entity nearby is blocking an Entrance in what looks like a Cave...

BTW - anyone know what graphics setting is causing all the rocks to look weirdly shiny? It wasn't always like this. Thanks!
