    How would I access this because I am really excited. I can't find it

    Basically you've got to go into the beta tab in steam and then add the password that's at the bottom of Philo's post before the testing branch shows up as an option (then you select it, it downloads and away you go :D)

    The update isn't available to me. Is it something special and not a beta? 

    You've got to sort of unlock it in steam by adding a password in the beta tab. It won't turn up as an option until after you do that.

    What do you think would be the best balanced age settings for role playing? Include the pregnancy and damage settings if you want :D

    Currently I have taken the normal values x3 which works pretty well but I was wondering what you guys have? Or will plan on having (I am planning on doing it with x4 and x5 (can't go higher than x5 as it is capped at 100 which I find kinda sad)

    I've just been playing around with the settings at the moment, but I really enjoyed adding a five day pregnancy to a forty odd day lifespan, it just felt like it gave a bit more flavour? I'm still trying to work out what damage modifiers work, I definitely set it too high initially and got pretty much entirely wiped out by one bearyena

    tried that, nothing works, i'm giving up. not worth the work

    It didn't work for me initially either, and then I restarted niche (and steam I think) and then all of a sudden I was just clicking through the colours and saw my custom colours. Maybe it'll just start working randomly for you too

    question, in the bat head stats it says -1 seeing but my creatures still see normal is this a bug or does the normal eyes cancel the -1 seeing?

    I'm going to guess that it's a bug, since when you look at the stats you can see that the minus one hasn't been applied

    I have started a safe file with 13 strength Nichelings that kill this dude really quickly.

     

    Also where does the defence bear show up?

    If that's the one Bostonlobstah found, it appears to be a grasslands type of biome?

    Meanwhile, in the land of experimentation, the return of the goddess of winter! (or a close ish copy of her, since I don't actually have any records of what her stats were. Also a restart has added my custom colours into the game, not sure what happened there)

    We have a new competitor to Derp Snout. That is officially the ugliest thing I've ever seen but I'll probably get used to it.

    To be fair, that colour scheme really doesn't help, I like my pink bat a little better (but yeah it is definitely more an ugly bat than a cute bat, but tbh I love how hideous it looks)

  7. I'm not sure if it's all horns or just antlers, but as you can hopefully see, this poor little guy, at least as a child, has antlers that go through his ears. Once he grows up, I'll post if it's still a problem

    Looking at the other photo I posted of a bat buddy, it's not as obvious, but the ram horns do the same thing too.

    what does forbidden genes mean?

    and i need help changing the gem colours, i read where to find them but i can't find it.

    also it's kinda strange editing a creature without seeing it

    Forbidden genes means the randomly generated nicheling won't have those genes

    As for changing gem colours, I tried but failed, it's in Niche folder and it's like a notepad file (the icon has a little gear on it)

    Update is live now :)

     

    I just want to say, thank you so much for releasing this now, even if there is still stuff to work on. My week has been really tough, as I've been dealing with my car being written off due to a storm and this is very much just the thing I needed to make my week end on a good note. Thank you!

    Yeah, Retimed isn't our third game :)
    We help them with marketing and work in the same office.
    The new game doesn't have a name yet.
    The plan is to make a building simulation game where you build up a settlement on the back of a huge animal that walks around.
    But it's also still possible that we find out the concept doesn't work and do something else ^^

    Ooooh, that concept is amazing and exactly the kind of game I like to play! Plus Stephanie's artwork is just absolutely stunning! If you do a kickstarter for it, I will definitely be supporting it!

  11. Dig dig and dig

    If you're starting in snow, you want to keep reloading until you start with a digging paw. The ice blocks will often have helpful genetics as well

    If you're in story mode, aim for claws and digging paws before you get there (also if I'm remembering correctly, first snow has a fair amount of poisonous berry bushes, so poison immunity will help)

    For the most part, as heyitsgeorgie said, ignore walrus deer, but check every so often if one swings past if it's close to death, cos you can swoop in and swipe up the meat. Also Balance Bears have plus 2 for defence, so you need to have more than plus 2 strength if you want to take them down

  12. As would be expected with such danger surrounding him, the poor unnamed kit was quickly snatched up by one of the many nearby birds in the sky, though Faith's Chosen could not find too much sorrow or guilt in his heart for the child. Meanwhile, having all faced the harsh, energy draining cold of the approaching winter, it is with wonder that SwiftCurrent and Salvation discover the healing magic of the newest member of the tribe.1319768243_Niche-ageneticssurvivalgame9_01_201912_03_48AM.thumb.png.970caf178e3c1a0ff635c5ffa671cc23.png

    Kirvan tells them of the tribe members they had never met, and the way a defenceless kit was abandoned to the fates, a particularly harrowing act to Salvation, who had been tasked with caring for SwiftCurrent at such a young age. As Kirvan sings his healing songs through the night, Salvation feels a powerful draw towards the kind and mysterious creature, encased in ice as SwiftCurrent's father had been, but with the opposite of his curse.

    In the other half of the tribe, a tragedy has befallen Isis. In her haste to escape the peril that stole her first child, she has grown too tired to build her nest, and will pass away without her dreams of a family built from love ever being achieved.1343453275_Niche-ageneticssurvivalgame9_01_201912_10_00AM.thumb.png.bd740a9cc5e7b52e09e78886e48a6e10.png

    Salvation and Kirvan's first kit is also born with Salvation's all important double digging paw. With Salvation's permission, SwiftCurrent asks if Kirvan would help her try and keep the gift of flight alive in their tribe, to which Kirvan agrees.1426069747_Niche-ageneticssurvivalgame9_01_201912_17_36AM.thumb.png.e564ab15e9a6230dc7e805bdecfda04b.png

    Meanwhile, things look grim for Faith's Chosen and his wanderer friend. Surrounded on all sides and too cold to do more than swipe at the nearest fox a few times, Faith's Chosen reflects on his choices in life and the path he has walked. He does not know about the other tribe mates that the strange ice bound creature went to join and believes his path here will lead to the end of his family's line and legacy.780380356_Niche-ageneticssurvivalgame9_01_201912_19_29AM.thumb.png.3001f2d92984031c77387d6a8eed7df7.png
