dreamordecay's Bulletins
So I ended up neglecting toyhouse for a hot minute due to a combination of factors; inconsistent access to my adhd meds, depression, & most recently, a hyperfixation on pokémon sword & shield that consumed my life. I would like to put more attention on my characters, though! right now my three priorities are naming the designs that haven't been named, deciding on stories & plans for characters that don't yet have one, and updating the characters that do have stories with details about them.
thanks 4 reading!
If it wasn't obvious, Whoops! All Cradily has been put on hiatus while I figure out some of the complicated details of running it. I want to get it open this year, but with my unreliable access to the medication I need to function, I can't promise anything. More updates on my general life & state of projects soon!
Still getting Whoops! All Cradily set up & ready to announce, & you can expect a bulletin about that before the end of the month. But THIS is about Fursona Friday: a writing practice I'm doing to get in the habit of writing short things. Read them here!
I almost called this an interest check except I'm doing this no matter how many ppl are interested LOL.
Anyway, this is the Ping List for my upcoming Pokémon ARPG based around Lileep & Cradily! It's called Whoops! All Cradily, and I've been working hard on it over the past couple weeks. Featuring cool lileep variants, a bunch of fun game mechanics, and a plot that reveals more content as time goes on, I hope that pokémon fans will take a look and find a new appreciation for my all-time Favorite Pokémon!
Prof. Ginkgo is a pokémon professor specializing in revived fossil pokémon, especially lileep and cradily. When she and her fossil hunter friend, Monty, discover a huge deposit of root fossils in an uninhabited area, the two struggle to receive funding for the excavation, until a wealthy family offers to sponsor it under the condition that their daughter, Quennifer, gets to participate. Quennifer is a skilled trainer and a huge fan of cradily, and her presence brings a decent number of trainers to the dig site to help out and get their own root fossils to revive!
Other upcoming characters include Vranklin, a coordinator; XOXO, a stylist; and plenty more to introduce yourselves to!
Game mechanics include…
- Cool Variants: We'll have a bunch of color/pattern variants so you can get creative with designs, with more added every couple of weeks. The starting selection has plenty of Color and Pattern variants, and the first major update will have Fusions and Delta Types, with later updates having Battle Forms, Contest Forms, and, eventually, a Third Evolution!
- Quests: These are divided into Battles, Contests, and Jobs. They're all completed in the same way, by drawing, writing, or otherwise creating something that fits the prompt, and can only be completed once, with some exceptions. I'm preparing a ton of quest ideas to make sure I can keep them updating and refreshed frequently!
- Wonder Trades: I'm very excited for this one! Opening once we have a handful of players, participants send out their pokémon to be traded to someone else, and get a random one in return. Unlike the game's wonder trades, the swap only happens once there's enough pokémon in the pool to be suitably random; I'm hoping I can get it going once a week.
- More???: Some mechanics I'd love to include are Daily Bonuses and Permanent Questlines, and like… whatever else I can think of! Because this is a very niche arpg idea, I'm trying to include a lot of cool concepts so that ppl who may not be interested in lileep/cradily on their own can find something interesting.
I am looking forward to opening it in January 2023! I wanted to open it earlier but let's be real, Christmas is going to take up most all my time. I'm not setting an exact date this early except that it probably won't be the 1st.
You will be pinged twice total; once for the announcement of the Release Date, and again for the Grand Opening. Any vote in the poll puts you on the ping list. You can subscribe to me for further updates, if you want! But it's not necessary.
Thank you for reading! I look forward to seeing you at the dig site!
I'm exploring various species & worlds here, & this one is very cool and neat! The Clawbies Plushsweet MYO event is linked here.
Cannot wait to make a lil guy
I drew 2 things and burnt out LOL. sorry about that
-> Dream or Decay's Artfight Hitlist
So yeah. Fill out this form and I'll put you on my List of ppl do draw for during artfight! My artfight username is dreamordecay, just like here. Please check my art tab on toyhouse for examples of my art, since the examples on my artfight page are extremely outdated
I'm considering opening writing commissions once I finish two pieces of owed writing. My work can be found in my library tab, featuring mostly eevees, or my Ao3 page under Mattecat.
Examples:
- Supervillain Dream Lair, an original story about two of my fursonas.
- Everything She Wanted, a Lego City Adventures fanfic as well as a previous commission.
- Noodle Nuisance, a Lego Monkie Kid fanfic.
- Odd Ones Out, a Spiderverse fanfic.
OK so I haven't been on here for a while due to Problems and Difficulties, but! get ready for 2022, which is when I attempt to become the account on toyhouse with the most characters. I currently don't know who has the most characters so I'm gonna shoot for 10k and hope I don't die.
