We are currently evaluating the possibility to produce Niche plushies. Not sure at all that it will be possible yet though! Still evaluating. But if it WOULD be possible. What design would you like to see as a Niche plushie? Here is my design for a baby Adam plushie ^^

@Snowy Owl Sounds like a bug! I'll look into it. Will also look into the capped camouflage, not sure what's happening there. Also not sure what is going on with all the fake Philos around here @Phil @philo.exe @Philoh @PhiloJD @Philomena 😮

Oooookay so I'm slightly late to the party. But I have a suggestion! So I can tell (even if they haven't commented) that lots of people probably want one of their main Nichelings (for example, Meringue, DT, Ossen, etc.) as a plushie. Maybe, if this does get confirmed and ends up working out, there can be a "design a plushie raffle/drawing" of sorts? SO basically you can enter this raffle/drawing, and say, I dunno... 25 people are selected. Those 25 can submit pictures of their Nichelings so they can become plushies! Also, I WILL GIVE YOU MY COLLEGE SAVINGS FOR THESE PLUSHIES okay maybe not that far but you get the idea

Some more art of my boy Shark! (You can probably guess what he's the god of) this took a stupid amount of time

so I remembered a really good drawing I liked from ages ago and decided to redo it.. it took like 2 hours damn (the character is hornet from hollow knight) old one: new one: im also probably gonna redo this hollow knight art from ages ago too (mainly because nobody had ripped the black monster thing's sprite from the game files yet and he only appears behind a lot of things so I got his design hella wrong) in the next few days *hollow knight spoilers I guess but I doubt anyone here will ever play it*

thanks for making me choke

look out! i think philo likes you

So if we really do this, the first step would be to get 1 or 2 prototypes produced ^^ Most likely Adam + another design we could figure out together. (Getting a prototype produced costs around $350). Then if the prototypes are cool we would have to order at least 500 of the same plushies (this is a requirement by the plushie producer). So maybe we could run a Mini-Kickstarter to see if 500 people actually want a plushie (I really don't want to order them and have my bedroom stuffed with plushies for the next few years!) Also ordering 500 of them would cost around $4000. Then we would need to figure our shipment too... Just brainstorming here ^^

so im about to hit 100 subs (at 99 right now) so im throwing a party on the forums because real parties are for nerds we need food,, and balloons,, and more balloons,, and dumb hats

why have niche emojis when we can just make loads of these

im so proud of this community

xDDD

We need a group picture to remember this day @Phyllo @Speedy Philo @Pillow @Philo @PhiIlo @Phil @Philoh @PhiloJD @Philomena @heyitsphilo @Adaphilo

Ahh I've never gotten double twins on the same turn before. Look at them cuties 😊 Anyone else gotten double or maybe even triple twins before?

I have a new pfp (the circle kinda blocks it so ill post it here)

Once I had twin sisters who both had twins on the same day! I'll get the screenshot up later.

I've only got one screenshot I don't have to really dig around for right now I think it was called the Venux tribe?

VIVA LA PHILO-LUTION!!!

as my phellow Philo said, we are not fakes, we are clones!

I stalk everyone enough to know who's who

What community have we created

everyone say philo!!

I wonder why 🤔

We aren't fake, we are clones! also you forgot @Adaphilo

Lucky. I got this once:

what about A FRENCH SLARM HOLDING A BAGUETTE

Anyway. It's 3.33 am and I have an essay to write. Bye for the next 17 hours

OH. MY GOD. NICHE PLUSHIES? TAKE MY MONEY Alsoooo my favorite Nicheling? Uh- I know the seemingly obvious answer would be Dragon Tear but I don't want her to always be my go-to (since I literally only have like, a total of 20 screenshots from the game and yada yada) SOOOo NO COMMENT

@Poopbeer (haha that name xD) My favorite Nicheling is Adam. That's why I designed him the way he looks Speaking of Adam, we are currently evaluating the possibility to produce Niche plushies. Not sure at all that it will be possible yet though! Still evaluating. But if it WOULD be possible. What design would you like to see as a Niche plushie? Started a separate thread if you want to share ideas too.

This is a challenge all about social structure. In this challenge, there are two social layers. You should use a very large island to allow this challenge to really take form: On the top are nobles. Nobles are the stronger, higher ranking faction. They are generally very beautiful (to you, at least), and will not bother with things like collecting grass. Nobles, however, do love a good hunt and chasing down rogues. They mostly live off the work from the villagers. They should each have their own space on a seperate part of the island than the villagers. They have the alpha rank. Their gems should be colored a noble gold. At the bottom are villagers. Villagers are normal, everyday nichelings with a whatever appearance. They may hunt, collect grass, pick berries, and all other nicheling related things. Each nicheling family has to have two parents and no more than 4 children. A couple cannot have more children until one of them dies or is married off. Each family should have their own small ‘house’ in the island at with at least one line of darkness between then and any neighboring family. They have the beta rank. Their gems can be colored between families so you can tell who comes from where. Generally, a house consists of some kind of food source (berry bush, river, tree) and a nest or at least enough space to make one. Marriage Daughters are very prized, especially a particularly pretty or talented daughter (Defined as having 3+ in any single skill, or a special skill such as weather prediction, this is up to you). When a daughter is born, all genetically compatible males will fight for the right to the daughter. If you have a lot of genetically compatible males, you can choose to limit the amount or only give each male 1 number so the numbers don’t get unmanageable. Use a die or a random number generator and give two numbers to each male, for example. Male 1 gets 2 and 6 Male 2 gets 1 and 3 Male 3 gets 4 and 5. The male whose number gets called wins the daughter, this is absolute, even if you didn’t want that female and that male to mate. HOWEVER, if the daughter is particularly desirable (in your eyes or by raw stats, whichever you prefer) and a noble family has a genetically compatible son, you must flip a coin to decide if the nobles take the daughter instead, regardless of whether you wanted her to mate with the nobles or not. Of course, this can always result in a lot of forbidden romances, subterfuge, sabotage, and family rivalries. This challenge is great fun if you’re into roleplay. Once a daughter reaches adulthood, she should get her own space with her husband and start having children as soon as possible. Their gems should gain a unique color, which all their children will inherit. Orphans and the matron: Orphans are the children of mothers and rogues, children a family has over their 4 child limit, or children whose parents have died. Somewhere on your island, there should be an orphan matron. Orphan matrons are usually older nichelings, sickly or crippled nichelings, or infertile nichelings. The orphanage should be separate from the normal area where your nichelings live, though not too far. Orphans have the omega rank. Orphan daughters can be married off when they reach adulthood. Usually only families that cannot seem to win a challenge will accept an orphan daughter as a wife. Nobles will never take an orphan wife. If there is no family who wants the orphan wife, she can either become a matron or a slave. Orphan sons may be married off if there are no other genetically compatible males for a given female. Otherwise, they begin work as matrons or become slaves for the nobles. This part of the challenge is mostly optional, but it does become useful if the orphan children have immunities that have become rare in the common population. Matron and orphan gems are orange unless they marry, after which they take their mate’s gem color. Matrons cannot marry or have mates. There can only be 3 matrons at a time! There are a few absolute rules in the clan: Villager females, especially married females, who mate with rogue males become ostracized. They can either be banished or given the omega rank and forced to do slave work like clear grass for the nobles, harvest stinky fruit, or become babysitters or orphan matrons. Their illegitimate children become orphans or can be banished and immediately killed if you choose not to do the orphanage. Villager families cannot become noble, though a family who produces desirable, healthy children is usually considered more highly among the clan members. Noble females who bring shame to the family name (for example, breeding with a rogue or a slave) are demoted to a villager. She cannot return to the noble rank ever again, and any children born from a demoted noble female cannot marry into noble families. If a male cannot produce children after 5 failed mating attempts (6 attempts in total), the daughter can choose return to their birth family and be married off to another male nicheling. A female can choose to give a male more chances, but generally will give up after ten tries or so. That male cannot compete for that daughter in her next challenge. An infertile daughter or son is usually banished, demoted to a slave, or made into an orphan matron as they are considered burdens on their family. Wanderers are always a villager, and cannot marry into noble families. However, their children can given they are talented and/or desirable enough. Nobles decide things like moving islands and serve as arbitrators in disputes. How to start: My settings are: Baby = 2 days Child = 5 days Teen = 12 days Adult = 61 days Pregnancy duration = 3 days Enemy damage = 10 Environment damage = 5 Hunger damage = 5 Healing = 5 Start with nine nichelings. Two noble families, and two villager families, and one orphan matron. Make sure to have their gems colored. You can design them or have the game generate them. You should use a large island. Grass Mingle, Grass adventure, Archipelago, and Peaceful Meadow are all good starting points. If you like a little variety, you can turn off some predators and go to some crazy islands like the deep jungle or home island. Do what makes you happy :3 Good luck!

Post screenshots from your favorite/most successful tribes here! WARNING: LONG POST! TOO MANY UNSOLICITED PICTURES! Adam's Journey Skittles Farsea Feathers (retired?) Breaking Dawn. (First ever tribe. So of course I was terrible at playing. Retired)

This is (at least, one of) the oldest picture from niche I have, from a tribe long-ago deleted. It shows three pairs of twins, one of them identical. All from the same parents.

sounds just like him

Congratulations!

I am subbing as Little_Dragonwolf_Studios. The girl who snuggled Solidarity in a round of hunger games...

OH MY OH MY LORD I JUST COVERED THE MOUTH WITH MY FINGER AND I JUST SAW IT I CANT UNSEE IT NOW H E L P

AHHHH IT WAS THE SKIN TO ME I DIDN'T SEE THE WHITE BUT NOW I CAN AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA

frick i thought the red thing was a mouth CANT UNSEE IT NOW

I have had three at maximum. Most notable was a line where they had compatible twins three times. Then they just had twins twice, and the litters were cross compatible. Never got so lucky with 2+ again. Or even compatible twins...

well THAT'S confusing

it's YA'LL here in the best state, Texas

TIME FOR THE REVOLUTION

I would, but I feel like having to learn french in school is enough for me lol

I was very confused yesterday by all of the Aetherskyes. I know one was real and one was you, but who were the rest?

Meringue wants to go on an ADVENTURE with NEW FEMALES! These are his official genes: (though he WILL take damage from being sick... well, you can always make him not have doubled immunity (which I do sometimes, but it makes him a bit mad), or just console him healing his entire life)

Thanks. It's for economy with no maximum lenght, so about 3-4 pages in Word.

I would love to help design Niche plushies. And I would do it for free. I feel terrible about stopping with the plushie making I just have been not feeling my best this last year and I still don't know why. I've been through MRI, lumbar puncture, you name it. I have stopped doing many things I enjoy and that is probably not good for me. Whatever you all decide I will be supportive and do whatever I can to help. And you know I will buy each and every style you come up with. Please let me know if I can help!!

I'm pretty sure we'll have to run a survey for the designs question I would be totally on board with a Baby Bearyena or a Baby Spit Snout. Any yes, Eve would be cool too.

Wonder how seri is gonna react ( seri pixel biologist )
