This sounds so cool. There were even some things I wasn't aware of being put in. Unfortunately I have to wait 6 more hours before I can get to play it, but the hype is real.

OK, where to start... First off the whale island port looks IDENTICAL to the Jungle Island port, which is a bit confusing since whenever I am there I expect apes but there are none. (which I like!!) I find the genes very unique, and the purr snout looks like a fox and threw me for a bit of a curveball. I am currently working on a save file SPECIFICALLY for bug testing, and the day counter works beautifully. The call to attract new mates sounds like a dodomingo. Secondly, could you make the whale island part look a bit different from the Jungle Port? Perhaps with some sand and coconuts on the ports?? I couldn't find the beak gene in my mutation menu, although I enjoy the look of it! Lastly, I sort of expected to be able to unlock the peacock tail gene but since it is a male only gene I undertand the conecpt. Could you add new patterns?

Thanks for the feedack @Espeon
All noted. Yes,  we'll change the whale island port to  look a bit different from the others.
Whether or not we add new pattern depends on what the community votes for for the next update

I also noticed I couldn't find the scorpion tail gene in my mutation menu, and one of my nichelings died but the body was still there and began to MOVE just like a wild nicheling!! Is this a bug, because if it is, this will be the first one I have encountered so far. The bug I encountered was on a new save file in STORY mode. Otherwise, very well made update, it was worth the wait!!

Looks great ^^ Been waiting too long I almost gave up -.-

Thanks! Will test now!
