Description:
Plans are in hand for Tenby to mark the 80th anniversary of the D-Day landings with a special beacon lighting ceremony on Castle Hill.<br/>Instead of lighting beacons to mark his Coronation last year, His Majesty, The King requested that they be lit on Thursday, June 6, 2024 to mark the anniversary of Operation Overlord.<br/>A similar beacon lighting ceremony took place at the seaside town for the Queen's Platinum Jubilee back in June of 2022.<br/>The largest naval, air and land operation in history, the World War Two landings at Normandy in 1944 saw the opening of Europe’s Second Front which would eventually lead to the downfall of Hitler’s Nazi regime 11 months later.<br/>Mayor of Tenby, Cllr. Dai Morgan, fellow councillors, representatives of Tenby Royal British Legion and local cadet units, will leave Castle Square at The Harbour at approximately 8.50pm on June 6 to process up to Castle Hill.<br/>There, following the reading of the International D-Day Tribute, Cllr. Morgan will light Tenby’s beacon to form part of a UK wide chain of Beacons and Lamp Lights of Peace at 9.15pm.<br/>All are welcome to join in at this commemoration.<br/>Earlier in the day, at 11am, the Mayor will also lay a wreath at the town’s War Memorial in remembrance of all those who gave their lives during the Landings.

Upon release you look to get your low-life back on track by checking in with various factions & avoiding others, but everything is upside down! You work with & against a variety of eccentric underworld characters, various surly gangs, orderly social clubs, uptight neighborhood associations & a dazzling variety of obnoxious monsters to make your way to the top of the city to see who is pulling the strings.<br/><br/>There are also mini-games & the card game PIT FIGHT (a battle game with 48 unique cards) to expand play exponentially! You also have a pet pigeon that you can control to do things only a pigeon can do. The Battle For Brüttelburg is rendered in an 8-bit Retro style in eye-melting colors with mechanics fit for the future!<br/><br/>The base version of the game includes seven levels, five mini-games & PIT FIGHT, but we’ve got lots more in store with our campaign stretch goals! The base game levels are the Dungeon, the Verboten Zone, Goblin Town, the Pickle Factory, Pig Town, the Circus & the Pleasure District, and the mini-games included are Seaside Barrel Toss, Pickle Fever, Guzzling Goblins, Pigeon Po Po & Dance Mother! <br/><br/>Being a smaller boy, you try to avoid combat by sneaking around, although you’re not above getting in scraps! You are rewarded for your curiosity, there’s a lot to see!<br/><br/>The Battle For Brüttelburg is rendered in a retro 8-Bit style in Eye Melting Colors. The simplicity & boldness of 8-bit design felt almost like candy or jewels growing up, & I hope to transfer some of that feeling to you.")
