Dear pack We have exciting news today ^^ Many teachers reached out to us about buying an educational licence for Niche. In order to say thank you for all the support we received along the way, we decided to give them the game for free instead Niche is now available for schools and teachers free of any charge! Please help us to spread the work by sharing these posts: On Facebook On Twitter On Imgur Do you know any teachers? They can get in touch with us through this link https://niche-game.com/for-schools/ Also, say hi to Cala our mascot for the educational version

I saw you guys posting lineart so I thought I'd also share the lineart of Cala that I drew last week ^^ In case somebody wants to color her! Btw her name basically is Caramel (since I used a picture of a caramel pot to pick her colors), but short Cara and pronounced in Japanese Cala in case you were wondering

Also just a side note I'd love to see a developer playthrough of Niche. I it never hurts to play your own game. (Maybe you can teach us even more about genetics, certain strategies, and why you added certain features as you do it :3)

Featuring Hades, god of violence, death, and war!

@RaanaTheBanana I used to draw a lot but since 10 years or so I started to get more into game design and programming too So nowadays I still do art for our games sometimes, but not so much. I always do the Niche promotion pictures that you sometimes see in a collab with out artist Steffi though ^^ (We make the draft together, she does the 3D models, I do the overpaint)

Badly photoshopped Melon loves you!

It's time to announce the winners of the Niche Sandbox give away The random numbers have chosen: @AnimalRoundVeggie @Willow Kasai @BountyHunterJ as the winners! Congrats folks I'll send over your Steam key via PM right now!

Mine is finished too!:

Finished

Ima start up a new MC world. And post screenshots for you to see what's happening. Here we are. Spawn. Wood. Nice. There are FISHIES in da water! I made an axe to...better my tree-chopping experience. It's house-building time. I need cobblestone for my floor. So yay. The sky looks nice... Floor completed (also walls) I heard things so now I'm scared, apparently. I build a door for...protection THEY FOUND ME That's all for now...I guess.

So for this round will be Paan X Alex, Silver X Skye, Remi X Finch(Will need one more ship) I am not doing FlowerMask X Magnolia because @Condensed Milk already did them

This. Here- It can be a nicheling too, I guess. Whatever floats your boat! (also, it's not transparent, sorry!)

My frickin keyboard separated somehow! look!

Bit of tweaking, including less stiff leg and hopefully slightly less weird tail. Also now 24 fps with two frames per drawing instead of 12 fps with one frame per drawing. Because why not.

yay i'd really like to play niche at school

Well, at least people will be amazed when you get to genetics

He he heeeeee Nutella Raana

I just realized Forgot that MothZoey/ZoeyFlutter would be there too(The second purest ship.) I'll do them in the next round

Yes, but why do people keep making topics about it?

I just noticed I won a day last month. Wow. How did I not see that before? Seriously. Anyways. Thanks : D

*when you spend 2 hours trying to get two zombie villagers to be cured*

I used to have a sort of messed up mouth but I'm wearing braces now and it looks so much better XD Georgie yours looks like Magnolia with all that pink 😍

Dear pack As you know the Sandbox Settings Update has recently been released on the main branch, yay Now you may be wondering what comes next for Niche, so we wanted to give you a little update! There won't be any big new updates for the PC game in the coming months. However we have 2 cool things to share with you ^^ 1) We are currently working on a prototype to bring a brand new game set in the Niche universe to mobile! These are very early mockup screenshots. The game focuses less on survival and more on breeding. Please note however that we will only finish and release this game if we think we can make something very cool out of it and its still too early to tell. Larissa is the game designer and artist for the Niche mobile game. Here you see her (left) playing the paperprototype with me 2) We're currently trying to port the game to Switch! For that we need a frozen version, which means we can't really update the game for now (except for bug fixes). Please note that here again nothing is 100% sure yet! It might be a bit early to share all this with you, since the outcome of both projects is still uncertain. However we wanted to tell you what we're currently working on

Watch me click on Claw several times ocnfussd as why it’s not Runner’s Leg

Swiftstep is a tom-cat with golden series fawn tabby-with-white fur and orange eyes. Their tail type is longy and their body type is intermediate. They are 16 moons. A feature they have is a tear in their left ear.

Haha thanks

Oooh, Philo! I didn't know you were so great at drawing! Cool!

I know?

I'm gonna get on in a few minutes

Here we go!I know Raana's not really a dog. But whatever. Great base, btw!

YES I WILL I AM ABOUT TO START MIDDLE SCHOOL SO THIS IS PERFECT TIMING

We all watch Stacy here, even though I don’t think she ever played Niche

Ya, I've installed a fair share of mods before. Copious Dogs is a good one (it adds different breeds of dogs), and some others too!

I want to see ittt

Close up on Part-Human Eli when you give him a gift So pure

It's ActivateBlindGeneMode Also, Risi's true genes!

Good job @AnimalRoundVeggie!

No. Just no.

Not at all I think the kiddos would look adorable

I got an idea An god/goddess RP

It would be Unchill Qert tho

Why is this me? (My mind is very different from how I act.)

Also those mockup nichelings are fricken ADORABLE gaaaaaaah

#1: Stinger Tail ((Name by Redknight910!) - Adds +1 strength and poison damage! [nicheling on the far right] #2: Prehensile Tail - Adds ability to climb trees, which would increase sight more than standing on a tree trunk. Or, I suppose, add +1 gathering? [nicheling on far left] #3: Flashy Tail (Name by Redknight910!) - Adds intimidation to scare away predators/rogue males/wanderers/rabbils/dodomingos. [nicheling on the far right] #4: Tricky Tail - When you are being attacked, the first hit does no damage. (Maybe if the enemy is blind, it will either not be fooled or be fooled so good no attacks do damage?) #5: Blubber Tail - This is modeled after leopard geckos, and it would give them three days of not starving when there's no food before they start to starve. #6: Sweet Tail (Or Berry Tail? Or Bush Tail?) - This is my idea for a tail that would look kinda like a berry bush in order to attract whatever npc's are attracted to berry bushes, like rabbils and wanderers. To really get that berry bush look, it'll have a color scheme separate to the nicheling, being either brown (drought bush/withered bush) or green (healthy bush) randomly like how the Toxic Body is random colors, always having pink spots to represent berries. I also couldn't decide what shape (berry bush or withered bush) to use, so I used both; let me know which one you like better!
