Is there a possibility of adding "Power Whacks" to fishing?
Or is that why there are several levels of bait in the shop?

Fishing is something we don't want consuming whacking resources (energy, power, mana), so I'm not sure I'm keen to add a Power-Fish ability.

The different levels of bait serve to improving your fishing odds as you increase in level.

When Georgia returns and gets time to work on the next pet generation, I respectfully request that you both consider having a least one companion that is realistic and at least one that is "evil-ish".

I'm not a fan of cutsie even though I play this game...

Haha! This is good news. Georgia likes drawing things other than cute! I'll pass your feedback along to her.

I think there's enough evil-ish in the news. Rather than to bring it into my relaxing escapist game, have Georgia create beautiful graceful and realistic animals that are in our world and Georgia's imagination. HKE

Fair point. Though, I interpret IamGroots request for "evil" pets as "cool, edgy, unusual, different".

Hi Nick,
Just wondering if you could give us any feedback on your Dino Dig Mini Event Survey!
Thanks

Sure! Here are some of the results from the survey.

Of the 197 response I got:
- ~70% enjoyed the mini event (4+ out of 5)
- ~56% enjoyed the hot-and-cold mini game (4+ out of 5)
- ~70% enjoyed the community goal (4+ out of 5)
- ~80% would like to play the mini event again in the future
- ~57% do not want it expanded into a full event
- Skimming the more detailed feedback, many folks seemed to particularly appreciate the novelty of it.

Now 197 is not terribly representative of the entire player base, but it's something.

Based on this feedback we won't be expanding this event into a full event, but will consider running it again in the future, likely next year.

Nick, for next year, would there be a way to earn an extra PandaClaw, buying one with circus tokens? I made the mistake of releasing one and thus cannot have an original if I want the new skin. This would be helpful too for those new to the game so they could buy one rather than waiting 5 annual events to earn all the transforms available. Thx.

I'll consider putting the Pandaclaw pet in the prior-items store.

Can we have a 3rd category for special crops so there easier to find so flux seed event seeds etc are in a different category.

This would be a good improvement to the crop seed store, certainly! I'll consider it for a future update.

hi folks i have a few ideas/suggestions

1- could we have a mini event for Steve Irwin day, it's on 15 November, and for the mini event we could get a khaki t-shirt, perhaps

2- i know i have suggested a lot of pets in the past, but looking over some of our current pets, we really need a stingray pet to make the aquatic pets more diverse and a black swan pet for the gens at most, because we already have a white swan, in Gen too

3- CRAZY IDEA ALERT - i found out there is a World Naked Gardening Day, May 6th, perhaps before the spring event in May or even during it, we could some how commemorate it perhaps lol

1) Another Steven Irwin tribute would be fun! I'll consider it for a future update.

2) I'll make sure Stingray and Black Swan are noted down

3) That's day is really out there, haha! We'll consider it. We do have a Birthday Suit costume drink after all.

Recently, I started getting a coded message when I post on the forum. The post does go through when I use my undo button. Is anyone else experiencing this?

@Nick, I sent you info regarding this today.

I got David to look into this and he believes he's found a solution! So it should be fixed. Anyone who see this from now on please let me know via email at bw2support@codenameentertainment.com or via support ticket.

Could we have a Chinese New Year's mini Event. We could earn a mount or companion for that year. Next year will be the year of the Rabbit.

Nick, it occurs to me we can turn in large feeds for mount bucks. I think it makes sense to be able to turn in large feed vouchers for mount bucks as well.

Makes sense to me! I'll note it down to consider for a future quality of life improvement.

Here's a brain teaser for the devs!

If you have been playing since day 1, completed every event, collected every trinket, completed every area - what would your max energy be?

Great question! I can make a good estimate, but I'd have to do some digging for an exact number. There's been a lot of content this past decade!

A Chinese New Year would be a great holiday for a mini-event. I'll note it down for Georgia and I to consider for next year.

I'll consider this for an upcoming charity drive, like we've done for Extra Life donations in the past!

It's still on the list, but I haven't had a chance to do much Quality of Life improvements. The Prismatic Passage Part 2 has been top priority!
