hi fellow bushwhackians, i have a few idea's/suggestions

1- it has been asked on chat , if there is a reward for getting our chosen dog pet for the current event that's on the Dog Days of Summer, to level 40, and if there is not, could there be perhaps

2- for next years Dogs day of summer event ( if it's not cancelled ), for the CI'S we have to get, could you perhaps have a full head mask of a collie perhaps or a dingo even,

3- could we have for a quest for the JR whacker event where we have to "Macgyver" something together to solve a problem or situation perhaps, and for a reward, we get a mullet hairstyle , because we already got a pocket knife already lol

4- Christmas is getting closer, and i suggested it before on Q/A,, but it would be good if we could do something with gingerbread, so i reckon we have a similair quest like the xmas tree one but we make/build a ginger bread house, and it could be a particular style perhaps


happy to hear folks thoughts

from Russel Denton A.K.A Wildlifeguru007/JURASSIC007

1) Interesting idea! Getting a pet to level 40 is quite the achievement to be sure, but we want all the achievements for the event to be doable for players of all levels, so we'd have do reward this not as an achievement, but some other way...

2) I'll note these hat ideas down for Georgia to consider for next year.

3) Haha! A very fun idea. A new mullet hairstyle would be a very neat reward too! I'll note this down.

4) A build-your-own-gingerbread-house quest would be super fun! I'll note it down to consider.

Russel, you inspire me to put my thinking cap on...here goes-

1- How about introducing re-gift a gift, sometimes I don't have the capacity to accept a gift for a while and it would be nice to pass them on to a lower level player.

2- I would love to have a puzzle solver rune or trinket, but only for the flux. It could be added to shop in the flux, it could be attained from a flux chest, it could come from a quest given by an ncp that has been stuck in a puzzle. Or even a new pet with puzzle solving abilities.

3- I would like to have a 3-D printer for my ranch that could be used to copy ranch items, the bigger the item the longer it would take...obviously.

4- Sugarless drinks (my bug-bear) How about having Ellesndra combine them to attain the costume that was assigned to them, combine so many of the same drink to get a hat, cape,sword and gloves.

5- I'd like to be able to combine pet treats, 1 each of levels 5, 10 and 15 to give a new treat to attain a level of 30.

1) Interesting suggestion. This would require a bit of tech finangling to work, but I see the appeal! Will note it down to consider.

2) A Flux Puzzle Rune/Trinket is a neat idea! You can already craft Runes of Puzzles, though. So I suppose this would have to be a more potent type of Puzzle Rune, but with the caveat it could only be used in the Flux. I'll consider it thanks!

3) Interesting idea! We already let you buy duplicates from the ranch store for certain items. We could consider something like this to let you do it for free at the cost of time instead...

4) This is a neat idea to make use of Sugarless Drinks! I'll note it down to consider.

5) Combining pet treats has been suggested before. Something I still need to give more thought.

Hello there o/
I have some QoL that I'd like to see added really :

-being able to sort pet list at PAGAS by "owned"
-having a option when sending requests to friend to select the most recently played
-when viewing eggs in shops, would be nice if it could tell if you already hatched it


thanks o/

1) You're not the first to suggest adding an owned/not-owned filter to PAGAS Pet Progress! I'll see if I can carve out time to add that feature.

2) Also a fairly popular request! I'll see if I can get that added to a future Quality of Life update.

3) That would be nice! The egg and the pet are a little disassociated data-wise, so I'd have to be a little creative with the tech for that. Regardless, I see the appeal of a feature like this.

TY Nick for going to have the pool items being able to be on the Golf Course with the next update (crossing fingers said update will be this week)and fixing the Personal Cabana Bar to have the ability to have items, ie... drinks, placed on it on the same update. These updates will help so much with my Maze for my Golf Course. I already love the updates that you have done, already. Hope your vacation was a good one.

You're welcome! It was a great time, thank you.

Hi Nick,

Is there a chance we could have swim suits for our characters? I know you have ran promos before for $$ but it's been awhile, and it would really be nice to get them as quest rewards.

Also a reminder ... can we have some skin colored gloves please?

I like Elsastar96's idea about re-gifting. And to take it a step further, maybe even re-gift ranch items or pet?

I was reminded by Elsastar96's post .... I'd still would like to be able to dress mannequins with sugarless drinks.

I also like Russell's idea about gingerbread houses. It would be fun to decorate them either for the event or something for our ranch.

1) I'll consider making the bathing suits available outside of the costume drink.

2) By skin-coloured, do you mean "no gloves"?

3) Gifts are one thing, but ranch items and pets are another. I'll give them some consideration though.

4) I recall this suggestion! Would be an interesting use of the sugarless drinks.

5) Could do something similar to the pumpkin carving in the Halloween event.

Yes, that's what I mean. But you said you can't do "no gloves" so it was suggested that you do skin colored gloves.

Thanks for all you and Georgia do Nick.

Here's a thought Nick...

... Would you ever consider making a desktop version of Bushwhacker Classic?

It would be a lot of fun for those who have never played it, as well as a great nostalgic game for those that have.

Quote by Stephen King: “Sooner or later, everything old is new again.”

As much as I would like to, we don't quite have the resources to do so at the moment. Perhaps in the future though!

Could we please have the ability to sell unwanted pristine feed. I currently have 74 of them and only 13 will ultimately have any use for me. Maybe we could just trade them for ones that we could use.

Would also like to know if you could block the Beholder from coming into the puzzle field for Flux 20. That thing is creepy and gets in the way when I have spawning quests. Don't remember having any companions wandering through any of the other flux locations.

1) I can see the appeal of trading pristine feeds. It's been suggested before, and I'll consider it for a future Quality of Life update.

2) The Beholder is new to the Flux 20.0! It is creepy haha! I'll consider either locking it up or removing it...

Oh, one small request, Nick. A plain white shirt; just got my iguana mount the other day and wish to come up with an outfit that looks like Obiwan Kenobi's in Return of the Sith.
He rode what looked like a large iguana in that movie. I've got the laser sword and can figure out the rest, just need a white shirt.

Very cool idea! I'll note it down to consider adding one to one of the Amicus merchants.

I updated my ticket with a list of items not able to put on the Golf Course that doesn't make sense. Like the Tackle Box can be on the GC, but not the Pretend Fishing Hole. Or like there is about 5 drinks that can't be on the GC and the Beach Chairs can, but not the Pool Chair or the Carnival Bench, just to name a few things.

Nick, besides BW2, what is your favorite video game? I know you have talked about Zelda, a lot, but can't remember if your favorite.

I've come to a point in my life where I don't have an absolute favourite game, but find I like aspects of certain games. I often find my self attracted to city-builders, crafting survival, multiplayer cooperative, and other kinds of games. I play a lot of different games XD

Gotcha! We might actually be able to do a "no gloves" option. I'll see if I can find time to do so.

Hi Nick, Can we get the requests from other players separated from the requests to be new friends? It's super tempting to click "accept all"... But, there are occasionally requests from someone you really don't care to have be on a friend list of yours...

Thanks for bringing those to my attention! I'll take a look at them when I have some time.

Adding some sorting tabs to the Requests popup is a great idea! Could have one for friend requests, station helps, blocker helps, crafting, etc.

I would absolutely love if we could see other players as we are out in the land of Bushwhackia, similar to the way it is on AI! Or would that just be way too much?
Thank you for your exceptional job on these games and creating the communities of truly lovely people!

Of these different games which one of each do you play the most? Like with city-builders, do you play Surviving Mars? or with crafting survival is it The Survivalist?

As cool as that would be, it's a big technical challenge, and the game wasn't design to be multiplayer everywhere.
