Mkay I sleep now 🥱

[upbeat kite]

hi everyone!!

how are we all??

[atomic agate]

🥭

[stray sleet]

Please release the game right now :(((((( so bored

[regal swallow]

Happy Friday my Pals!

🦆

I wonder what variations of ducks will there be. Maybe a turtle duck!

Or would it be a duck turtle

Then maybe a wizard crab that will grant magic

[spring rivet]

How about a mango-duck?

Or duck-mango?

[regal swallow]

A duck wearing a mango helmet?

Oopsies autocorrectos

[spring rivet]

Nobody saw it

[regal swallow]

A mango duck hero always fits the bill!

A duck riding in a mango boat. Now that be a Duck Mango

[broken pond]

good afternoon everybody ! hope everybody’s having a wonderful day !

Bones

[keen latch]

yea its a bones day

[abstract rover]

what does that mean

[heavy dew]

Usually calcium based parts of the skeleton

[abstract rover]

ok but what is a bones day

[keen latch]

I guess specifically pug bones if that helps

[rugged wolf]

I am okay! A bit cold but otherwise doing okay :) anyone doing anything fun?

[abstract rover]

nope i have no idea what a bones day is

[lost tiger]

bones day is what one describes work when there is minimal work to be done and or they are not busy at all

Your English is looking good so far 🙂

[glad egret]

I'm doing good! 😄 Thanks for asking ❤️

[lost tiger]

words english hard

[heavy dew]

Going into technical physics with material studies next, gonna be the real life iron man, I made up my mind

[lost tiger]

hahaha nice berry

[sand barn]

Someone told me you like cookies, so have a 🍪!

[solemn oxide]

danke dir^^

[glad egret]

AHA COOKIE

[keen latch]

I see no way this wont happen now

[lost tiger]

i would love to learn particle physics imo and further develop the hydron collider to make it more efficient in the hopes of creating new elements ROFL probably not how it works but i have a wacky imagination

[keen latch]

Luckily for you its a well treaded path so as long as you go into physics in college you can do it

[lost tiger]

but im learning impaired so information like that doesnt stick in my brain

[heavy dew]

Material studies brushes on how so I’ll do it for you

[lost tiger]

😮

i have the idea that using atoms and molecules from nuclear sludge we can refine it / repurpose it into useful molecules / atoms and reconstruct them

now go make it happen!!!!

JUST DO IT!!!!!

[heavy dew]

If it’s possible to make bacteria the converts solar energy to car fuel I’m sure it’s possible somehow xD

[lost tiger]

ionized bacteria? LEL

just invent one of those reactors the delorean had from the movie back to the future

speaking of inventions i wonder what tinkering will involve in palia now, what creations we can make? how will it affect how we play you know?

[surreal crest]

It's almost over

I am almost free

[heavy dew]

I will make Palia iron man, I’ve seen the robot leg, I’ve seen the golems, I will make it happen!

[remote latch]

don't start him off again Cinna rofl

[rugged wolf]

Do you have a suit design or anything since you want to be rl iron man? There are some pdfs that I can send that can help you get a cool idea that covers a variety of topics

[ocean stone]

[heavy dew]

Who? Me? Rant? Never..
So about that salad

[remote latch]

nah not you .. unless Cinna meant you rofl .. I thought Cinna meant csr and his random triple word phrases rofl

[ocean stone]

Yes I was talking about csr the backup salad generator

[heavy dew]

I have a couple design ideas in mind but I’m trying to be realistic about a sci-fi fantasy and start with the practical solutions for use before thinking of design

There I go again, always about me, textbook narcissist, I will be a great iron man

[rugged wolf]

Ah okay. Human kinematics is apparently a good starting point 😂 i have my SO sitting next to me telling me about a bunch of things you could do and learn about. He was also talking about giving jumping spiders lungs qnd then giving them bumble bee dna to make them.more fuzzy

[remote latch]

mwahah my DNA lab has been discovered rofl

[rugged wolf]

He couldnt help but crack a smile at that 😂 he said there was an acient beetle with primative lungs that wpuld work well for jumping spiders and easily help them grow in size to make it better for the spiders

[remote latch]

nah nah .. not gonna help spiders .. I'd help the bees with spider DNA rofl

[rugged wolf]

Lmao thats fair. He wants to make jumping spiders more fuzzy with bee DNA

[remote latch]

rofl

I doubt it would happen being a bit technical rather than cosy .. but would be cool if some DNA control was available at high levels of animal husbandy ( if it exists ) and farming.gardening.

[rugged wolf]

Yeah it would be interesting

[celest maple]

Omg just found out some games do not realese in my region cause of a law, I sure hope this game does release where I live. 😦

[keen latch]

ehh just get a vpn if it isnt

as long as you arnt in china

[heavy dew]

Doesn’t always work but that’s one fix, yeah

[celest maple]

I am in the Netherlands

[heavy dew]

You should be fine, NL isn’t that bad about E rated titles or mmo’s are they?

[celest maple]

They have an anti gamble law. So as long as this game does not allow loot boxes with items worth real money it should be fine.

[sand barn]

I think it'll be okay :)

[remote latch]

understandable .. I'd heard some countries had that ruling... Hopefully the game won't have those things .. and worse case scenario they may be able to create a version that restricts access to that part of the game if they did add them

[celest maple]

Is it known if Palia will be buy to play, pay to play or free to play?

[remote latch]

At the moment no .. they;re not ready to talk about that side of things yet

[celest maple]

Alrighty

[remote latch]

Next week or the week after #851872239435644928 will be open for questions for a week .. it might be a good time to let the devs know of the potential issue if they are added. Even if they don't answer they at least have the information to make an informed decision

[celest maple]

Will there be an announcement about that?

[remote latch]

Yeah, they post up the answers they have for the previous months questions and reopen so you should get a warning

[lost tiger]

loot boxes is a micro transaction method and S6 doesnt want that kind of thing in their game

they want to stay away form micro transactions

[celest maple]

Awesome 😄

[sand barn]

Also, maybe to help re-assure you, from my understanding of our law this is not a blanket approach to the problem. But rather one of evaluating the combination of elements that they find problematic, and if so, blocking it.

[lost tiger]

basically what they are doing is taking what EA does, and removing it all LUL because 80% of any EA game are micro transactions

the #❔│game-faqs and #❓│old-team-answers-alpha has a lot of commonly asked questions and ansers for you

[remote latch]

Correction .. they don't announce it .. or do an everyone ping for the posting ..

[sand barn]

That's why, for example, you can still play CS:GO in the Netherlands. But why you can't purchase loot cases any longer

[lost tiger]

i think thats a good approach, removing that portion of a game in every region would make me happy. 😄

[sand barn]

I won't pass judgment on that. But I see a sincere risk in such mechanics for younger players who don't fully have a good grasp of monetary value

[abstract rover]

inhale

[lost tiger]

i wonder what new games will come out after palia that use S6's approach to a chill game?

[remote latch]

Well there are probably a few out there not announced yet waiting to see how things go before and after release

[ocean stone]

[lost tiger]

oh maybe

Of course not .. I just made it up to introduce Palia stuff amongst your ramblings 🙂

[lost tiger]

you shouldnt believe everything you read online

[heavy dew]

But I have a reliable source

[remote latch]

hi Gambit

[abstract rover]

I won't believe it til I watch it on TV🎵

[lost tiger]

discord is not realiable source

[heavy dew]

Okay Twitter then

[lost tiger]

i dont even have cable to i dont watch tv lol

twitter is online cant trust it

[abstract rover]

we're standing at the end of the world my friend~ we're gonna watch it on TV~! 🎵

[lost tiger]

i hope that the social distancing doesnt push anyone off the edge 😮

[lost tiger]

yah but still... flat earth, social distancing, cats are arsehols, people fall off the edge

but everything there is upside down

bring a bag of lays chips, 80% of it is oxygen LEL

[sand barn]

It's not only oxygen if I'm not mistaken. Bunch of stuff in there to keep it fresh

[heavy dew]

It’s for protecting the chips though so they’re not crumbles when you get them..

During transport*

[sand barn]

What if I like my chips crumbly?! You're saying I have to crush them myself?

[heavy dew]

Then use it as a punching bag and you get that for free

[sand barn]

Two bags, one stone

[lost tiger]

i stomp on lays chips if i want them crushed

someone mentioned "ask your questions" opening sometime? does S6 announce it? cuz i dont want to miss it

[heavy dew]

Yeah they normally announce it

[lost tiger]

ok goody

[heavy dew]

They’re very good at informing the community in general about when something new or reoccurring happens

[carmine relic]

Wait, you what?

[remote latch]

I checked the channels and they're not announce channels and they don't ping everyone shrugs so maybe thats why some people miss the question week

[carmine relic]

I just wait for people to start flipping out to know if something is going on

[remote latch]

'Usually open in the last week of the month' so next week maybe the week it opens and the answers posted .. just not sure what day .. maybe Monday though

[hidden lynx]

Happy timezone friends! I hope you are all doing well 🥺 I had the best day yesterday 😊

[remote latch]

Hi Brittany

[hidden lynx]

Hi hi xrystal! - side not I hate that my phone tries every time to correct your name... So I have to go back and be like no I spelled it right. So if it's EVER wrong I'm in mobile.

And mobile is stupid.

[carmine relic]

We all face spelling "Crystal" correctly

[remote latch]

Its cool .. its an odd spelling for sure .. when I was in Sims Online the online radio station we had there had problems pronouncing my name rofl

[lost tiger]

you can add Xrystal to the word dictionary for your phone

the autocorrect library i mean

[carmine relic]

Too lazy, that requires more brainpower than I'm willing to give

[remote latch]

if it stops the auto correct you can try just Xrys 🙂

[hidden lynx]

This exactly that's alot of work 😅

[carmine relic]

How do you even say "Xrys"?

[remote latch]

Krys/Chris

[heavy dew]

Alright lovelies! I am out for the night, thank you again for the congrats and have a great weekend

[lost tiger]

i been saying it as Z-ris in my head lmao

[remote latch]

rofl .. that is exactly how the guys in Sims Online kept saying

[hidden lynx]

Only enough my phone has xrystal listed there as a shortcut so I can just click that? But if I ignore it and type it - phone is like hey no wrong

[hidden lynx]

Congrats on what 👀 rest well 🥰

[remote latch]

I get the same autocorrect issues so I won't get upset if a wrong spelling is thrown in 🙂

[hidden lynx]

Is it not still pronounced crystal? Cause that's how I read it 🤣

[carmine relic]

Krys keeps turning to keys, why

[hidden lynx]

Not surprised ahahaha

[remote latch]

it thinks you pressed the wrong letter

[remote latch]

yeah thats it exactly

[carmine relic]

Good thing my name is easy to say and read.

[hidden lynx]

Ohkay perfection

[lost tiger]

same here - RUSTY lol

[remote latch]

Thats why I say Crystal Lake Lotus is appropriate for me 🙂

starting to get for answer time next week rofl .. hopefully at least 1 of my 10 or 11 questions are answered 🙂

[carmine relic]

We'll see. I hope ya get one!

[remote latch]

But knowing my luck mine are 'too early to be answered' rofl

[carmine relic]

Then I'll hope you get picked so my luck applies

[lost tiger]

lmao i have a few too

where can i write my questions? so i cna just copy/pasta to the ask questions aprt after?

nvm thats too much work - i'll forget about it if i do it

[grizzled marten]

when in doubt just make a microsoft document or google doc

[carmine relic]

Wow, that was fast. I almost blinked

Some dude tried posting an invite to some server and the removing-bots got rid of em fast.

[remote latch]

cool

[carmine relic]

Very!

[lost tiger]

haha thats awesome

[grizzled marten]

Good boy bots

[carmine relic]

Too bad it doesn't stop the "haha free nitro" guys. Not yet, at least

[remote latch]

I wonder if ChapaaBot does that 'Scurrying about to improve our Palian Experience'

Ah no .. probably Beemo .. they deal with spam bots

[carmine relic]

Chappabot probably breaks into your lunchbox and eats your sandwiches.

[lost tiger]

good thing i dont have a lunchbox

[grizzled marten]

Breaks into your house instead

[lost tiger]

not much to look at my house since im poor

[carmine relic]

Jokes on them, I don't have a house!

[lost tiger]

jokes on them my hosue is made of cardboard boxes

and when the snow falls i live in an igloo

[carmine relic]

Chappa tipped over the bottle labeled "explodey stuff" and my house was vaporized.

[lost tiger]

once as a kid in one neighborhood we lived in had plowers remove the snow fro mthe back alley for the parking stalls to the homes. all the snow got pushed against a wooden fence where the dumpsters where and created a massive hill of snow. over time it would thicken and harden so one day a friend and i dug a hole and turned it into a mini cave, dug out some squares and got juice boxes, and put the juiceboxes in the square and but the block of icey snow back on like a door hahaha and we had slushies several minutes later inside of our iglool. it was so much fun

we also made tiny seats to sit on while in there too

good times

[abstract rover]

i miss digging tunnels in snow mounds

[remote latch]

ooh wonder if you can do that in Palia if they had snow

[abstract rover]

at my old place we used to get so much snow that the piles would be twice my height and then some... didnt even have a fence

it was so fun... why cant i go back to those days lol

[lost tiger]

me too csr, me too

[remote latch]

Just posted a picture of snow in Colorado 2008 in #🎨│artistry .. for someone that rarely sees snow .. I was like a kid .. once I had access to the outside rofl

[carmine relic]

I wanna jump into the snow

[remote latch]

Yeah I had lots of fun rofl

[stone tulip]

As someone who lives where snow comes around every year, snow is great. I don't know why but I've always liked the cold biting at your face when it's windy. Downside to liking that is my nose freezes and it no longer becomes as enjoyable

Apparently this winter is gonna suck in New York

[remote latch]

Yeah, I think I love it so much because I rarely if at all see any snow and when I do its like a sprinkling that I have to run out and make foot prints in before it melts a few minutes later rofl .. working in it or travelling to work .. nah .. don't like that .. fell on my butt enough times due to slippery ice on the paths rofl

[stone tulip]

Aye. My grandma broke her tailbone from falling on ice. It's no joke, and this winter will be my first time driving in snow. A great time to crash my car for the first time!

Laughs in a self depreciating manner

[surreal crest]

ey yooo captain Jack

[brave thorn]

Somebody must be an old-time DanceDanceRevolution fan.

[surreal crest]

I just like the song haha
never had a chance to try DDR

[brave thorn]

Ah... okay. Yeah "Captain Jack" by Captain Jack originally appears in 3rd Mix (and is seen in many arcade versions since). Its also seen in many Toshiba-Emi Dancemania compilation albums.

On a more Palia related note, I am glad to see alot of you loved the Chibi Jina I made yesterday. I will try to work on creating one for Tish next.

[ocean stone]

[remote latch]

Hi Chair .. I see you've opened the bottle 🙂

[surreal crest]

not yet, also I have no alcohol today
I might grab a beer later, 24/7 store is around the corner

I do have a McChicken tho

[remote latch]

aha .. did your roomate get the cpu cooler for you ?

[surreal crest]

he sure did! The thing is massive, makes me scared D:

[carmine relic]

Cahir!

Did you get the case?

[remote latch]

yeah I was terrified when my brother set my computer up with water cooling .. I am so careful moving the computer now .. just in case rofl

[surreal crest]

Gerimbit!
YESS I posted pics in #🎮│other-games

[remote latch]

so its just the power supply you ordered last night you've got to wait for now right ?

[surreal crest]

my instruction for this monster literally says I should shake the whole case back and forth if it's too loud

[surreal crest]

yeah :/ maybe I get it tomorrow, we'll see. I don

[carmine relic]

If it works, I guess

[surreal crest]

I don't have place for all these parts

awww my math tutor from... Uhhh I dunno how to say that but "Middle school" has his birthday today, I wished him all the best and he said he's telling about me to his students giving me as an example to follow, lmao

[stone tulip]

We talking about computers? Have fun, I know nothing about pc set up as I have laptop pc

[remote latch]

aww thats cool of them

[surreal crest]

yeah I'm putting together a new one, just waiting for the last part

[regal swallow]

[surreal crest]

god it got so expensive so fast
I already spent 2021.43 USD for this beast

[remote latch]

ouch expensive

[surreal crest]

a chair gotta do what a chair gotta do I guess

[remote latch]

yep

[stone tulip]

Neat! I want a pc but they are expensive

[surreal crest]

yeah, I just get to feel that XD
I'm waaay over my budget

[stone tulip]

Eh it's worth it in the long run. I want to buy one with my own money

Not my parents. My first computer bought with my own money would be so nice

[surreal crest]

I can get behind it, but It it forbidden for me to feel joy of spending my own money XD
in my country you need to either be rich or take a loan for the rest of your life to afford your own flat
but first you need to save money so you get around 10% of the loan you are planning to get.
So it's like I bought a new PC, yeah, but I'm further away from getting my own cozy place

[remote latch]

yeah feels like that here .. I think my one hope at getting my own place was back when I was in my 20s when I had plenty of money to start saving and pay the funds .. but after that job went bye bye .. no hope in hell rofl

[stone tulip]

Gatcha

[remote latch]

So a game like Palia < << it is Palia Chat after all rofl >>> giving you a house .. woot .. at least I have one somewhere rofl

[stone tulip]

In Palia yes!

I wonder if they'll implement double story houses

Or something similar

[surreal crest]

I'm still planning to get my casino tho

[remote latch]

not sure .. there was one comment on one story being enough so maybe not ..

[stone tulip]

Tree house maybe?

[surreal crest]

It would be cool if you could have a camp or something instead of house

ya know like tents

[stone tulip]

That too, give your lot trees and make it woodsy

[remote latch]

hard to say .. you could always make a suggestion if not for them to consider it as an addition

Your class project for this course is to take a look through the faculty's channels and read the information available in the #❔│game-faqs,#❓│old-team-answers-alpha and #🌠│official-art channels and the currently archived #❓│old-team-answers-pre-alpha channel. The #❔│game-faqs channel includes links to Rin's Overview and Vlad's Detailed FAQ documents. The research notes in these channels/documents will bring you up to what we know about Palia : The Game so far, along with the recently written blog on the Palia site accessed via the #📢│palia-news channel or the bottom of the Palia site itself. For extra credit, maybe you can think up some additions to the game and post them in #game-suggestions channel. And if you haven't completed your Palia Work Project yet, make sure you sign up for an invite on the site and fill in the surveys. Again, welcome and we hope you enjoy waiting with us .

[surreal crest]

Oh no no I feel like crying

[remote latch]

whats up Chair ?

[surreal crest]

I dunno I'm not sad I... just kinda want to cry?

[remote latch]

Oh, thought you had an update on your order and it wasn't good news

[pallid igloo]

I've been there, Chair - I find it helps to just let it out

[worthy rose]

gm amelia

[surreal crest]

Hi Amelia, and thanks, can't swee what I'm typing

oh god thats so weird

[remote latch]

maybe a build up of stress levels ..

[surreal crest]

I can't stop wtf

wtf is going on for real I feel like if I had an OS it just bugged out

[pallid igloo]

I don't know if this will help, but it reminds me of your icon

[surreal crest]

omg thats so sweet!

aight I think I'm better now. Jesus it was weird af

[pallid igloo]

I was like "is this TOO sweet?" Sometimes things that cute make me tear up 😅

[surreal crest]

nah it was just 👌 sweet

[remote latch]

your body obviously needed to release the tension

[pallid igloo]

Also can't get enough of this babe

[midnight oak]

That is depicted in the trailer as the first stage. I assume you mean instead of the progression (as shown in the trailer) were to more tent-y locations? Perhaps a circus tent?

[surreal crest]

Oooh a circus tent, sounds nice!

[remote latch]

oooh a neighbourhood of entertainers travelling from town to town and staying in tents on a campground performing to the locals - random thought in my head rofl

[pallid igloo]

YES PLEASE

OMG so Shakespearian!

[remote latch]

'Romeo oh Romeo wherefore art thou Romeo' rofl

[midnight oak]

Wouldn't it be "Nai'o, O Nai'o! Wherefore art thou Nai'o! Deny thy family and refuse thy Chapaa!"

[surreal crest]

Romeo and Juliet, just less bloody

aight yeah I'm good now. It's just weird, I prefer to cry when I'm sad lol

[remote latch]

yeah I'm a cryer rofl .. when I get over emotional the slightest thing will tip me over

[surreal crest]

I think the hardest I ever cried so far was during watching a Kimi no Na Wa (Your Name). Literally had to pause two times to cry and let it out because I wasn't able to read the subtitles lmao

[remote latch]

Glad you feel better now)

[pallid igloo]

That was a very touching movie, I might even rewatch it now that you mention it

[worthy rose]

I cried during spy kids 3d

[remote latch]

Ah yeah the big spy kids family battle movie

[surreal crest]

good luck, because I can't do it again xD

[faint dawn]

Thats okay... i cry at the end of trolls 2.. how the grinch stole christmas makes me cry...
Alot of things easily make me emotional...

[vale crypt]

[fair dragon]

Hi guys I hope everyone's day went well life is getting a little bit busy for me that's why I am lurking more T-T

[worthy rose]

Hi loki

[fair dragon]

Hi nish how are ya doin?

[worthy rose]

I really want to go home lmao. You?

[vale crypt]

https://tenor.com/view/baby-yoda-star-wars-mandalorian-hide-lurk-gif-19012846

[fair dragon]

Pretty okay for the most of it bout to start applying for colleges which is scary and exciting

Dont worry the day is almost over with😤 so you'll be able to get off work soon

[surreal crest]

hi Loki how are you

[surreal crest]

alright nish here's the plan: I use a smoke bomb to get you out

[fair dragon]

I'm good chair how have ya been

[surreal crest]

I cried for no reason not so long ago lol, but I'm fine! not sad, all is good

[dusty root]

@surreal crest it seems like your emotional bottle just broke randomly. It happens. What I like to do to prevent it is about once every week or two, watch something that I know will make me cry, and all the other crap just comes out with the tears. You feel lighter and less stressed, at least for a bit, after you do it.

[vale crypt]

watches smoke bomb catch curtains on fire

[fair dragon]

Well I'm glad you're fine you probably just needed to get something out ya system it happens and that's okay!

[surreal crest]

oh shi- runs

[worthy rose]

I'll slide you a 20

[vale crypt]

vote fire poles as furniture for palia housing

[surreal crest]

deal, omw rn

[dusty root]

I want tiki torches for outside my house

Need my farm lit up. I feel like I'd stumble out of the house with a broom to chase off some chapaas and step on a rake my dumbarse left out and knock myself out cold if I don't light things up... knowing me I'll prolly still do it.

Waking up a sleeping Alannah is a recipe for disaster... one way or another.

[vale crypt]

I'd go with a moat / electric fence combo

[dusty root]

I feel like the chapaas would dig a tunnel to the moat, drain it, dig under the electric fence and STILL nom on my stuff...

[vale crypt]

[dusty root]

The only solution is a concrete slab with high walls. Fill it in with fertile dirt and farm. Make sure there are no trees on the border of my farm so no climbing shenanigans. And an electrified barbed wire top. Must go full apocalypse farming to keep the chapaas out

[vale crypt]

looks like you'll have to become an accountant instead of a farmer

[dusty root]

Talking like Burt's compound in Tremors. cept bigger for more farming area.

Actually if I remember correctly he didn't make the underground border concrete until a later movie. Point is, he had the right idea. But instead of keeping out grabboids it's gonna keep out chapaas.

[drowsy relic]

hello

[surreal crest]

well well well would you look who come to visit us

I'm afraid today is looking to be just as lazy of a day as yesterday was ;P

[remote latch]

oops

[celest maple]

good night everyone, hope you all had/have a peaceful day

[fair dragon]

good night you too sleep marvelously

[rare saddle]

I stayed awake a wee bit to long (until light of day) so just got up an hour ago.. 4pm... so... not feeling like doing much. lol

I've gotten hooked on audio books. Latest... Wizard for Hire.

good laugh-out-loud mixed in with adrenaline and tears.

[remote latch]

rofl .. yeah I went to bed about 5am this morning but woke up about 10am rofl

[rare saddle]

well.. technically I did too.. but it was to put a sleep mask on and go back to sleep! lol

[remote latch]

Ah I sat up for bit to see if I was tired enough to need some more sleep but alas rofl

Palia Connection << At least sleep isn't required but has its rewards if you do rofl 🙂

[rare saddle]

there's times I'll wake up after just maybe 3 or 4 hours of sleep, but today wasn't one of those days. I find that when a storm is a-brewin outside, I tend to be much more muggy headed.

LOL

[remote latch]

Ah .. time for a Palia Vacation Advert .. lets see if I can find a picture to go with whats running through my head rofl

[rare saddle]

oh hey, yea 🙂

[remote latch]

From your sponsors at Insomniacs Anonymous. Need a nice relaxing vacation away from the craziness of city life. Well why not spend a few nights in one of Palia's cosy cottages. I am sure you will soon drift off to sleep to the sound of nature. https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/850062378926473227/899739593497268235/21_house_concept.png

I could sleep in, then go for a refreshing walk!

[remote latch]

Happy timezone!

[midnight oak]

I started having curious questions about Palia while playing New World and researching some game stuff. I wonder if theorycrafting has all been talked out here xD I mean there were some fun topic when I first arrived, but after so many months, do those discussions still pop up?

[sand barn]

Sometimes! Not as frequently anymore though

[spring rivet]

good morning pals!

[carmine relic]

Good mango-morning!

[gleaming frost]

Good morning! How goes?

[sand barn]

It... mangoes

[barren glade]

has anyone asked / does anyone know if communities will be able to host their own dedicated servers for palia?

[remote latch]

They have said they are unlikely to support private servers. According to a Q and A post in June.

Goodnight everyone!! Stay safe out there!

Chapaa we want chuu.. hm, quite a misleading sentence- do we really want chapaas around our Palia home?

[celest maple]

What's up

[heavy dew]

The answer is yes, yes we do

[fallen summit]

Happy timezones everyone!

Hi Xrystal

[rugged wolf]

Hello everyone!

I hope all are doing well

[ocean reef]

Hi Palian peeps, it's hi and bye for now, got to do things and it's always in slow mode, see you later.

[lost tiger]

5 seconds aint that slow. 10 seconds drove us insane

[remote latch]

She's talking about her being in slow mode today

[heavy dew]

10 seconds wasn’t that long either as long as you compile your sentences and paragraphs so it takes 10 seconds to write out what you wanna say just don’t type 5 words per message 👀

But 5 seconds is much better now I can rack up messages

Also, morning everyone ^^

[random aurora]

Hello, Palia is out ?

[surreal crest]

hi new friend! nope, it will be tho in less than 3 years

morning everyone! today is a glorious day as I'll probably get my power unit! woo hoo

[random aurora]

Okay thank you so much !^^

I always appreciate the introduction channels in the morning as there are people who make introductions in timezones where I have to sleep

[celest maple]

hello friends, hope you all are doing well today.

[regal swallow]

is that a mole?

[celest maple]

yep!

[tight lake]

No it's a secret agent sent to peep at us

[regal swallow]

Well moles are usually blind, so they will listen to us

[tight lake]

And transmit classified information to the rest of the chuus

[remote latch]

Yaaay. Saturday VR game night rofl

[surreal crest]

hell yeah! I gotta clean my room first tho

[regal swallow]

VR Palia? Just imagine the scenery!

[remote latch]

Yes unfortunately even though they may have fun with vr themselves they said they are likely to not add it to Palia. At least that’s what they said in June.

[regal swallow]

are not*?

🙂

[remote latch]

Yep not

[regal swallow]

i was fixing your thing above ^

[faint dawn]

[tight lake]

Hm, I want to ask if Palia will be similar to Genshin in aspects of exploring the world.. will it be similar?

Ok, so I'm just asking since my friends all love adventuring in Genshin.. I on the other hand, have never touched the game

[heavy dew]

My personal answer to comparisons is; no it is it’s own thing. But, I recall a comment about the world where they want it to feel open and not busy but feel alive. As for the exploration, no idea, I’d reckon yeah you can just go look and be amazed at a tree or find a cozy little cove

Personally I don’t find genshin fun, and the exploration felt too slow. So my hope is that it’ll be better xD but I’m biased

[tight lake]

Genshin is too combat-oriented for my liking.. from videos I see random mobs all across the map. Hostile creatures are everywhere.

[remote latch]

Yeah I think they like you to explore things in the game

[tight lake]

Hey, has Palia ever mentioned anything on hostile mobs?

[heavy dew]

There’s no combat, so none

The most combat oriented you get is hunting, which they’ve said still isn’t combat. And if they do combat later it’ll be optional

[remote latch]

Only in so far as animals to hunt … maybe later on there will be mobs to fight but you will be able to opt out of that part of the game.

[tight lake]

Is it weird that no, I won't spend 30 minutes hacking away at a world boss, but I don't mind spending 30 minutes fishing away in a game...?

Maybe it's all the flashy animations

[heavy dew]

There’s also no player health, so even if there are hostile mobs, what they gonna do? Nudge you?

[tight lake]

Nudge nudge wink wink critical hit to the heart

[heavy dew]

It depends on the game for me, I don’t mind spending 600 attempts failing to get 1 kill

[pale comet]

Been a while. Any updates on when this game is going in to open beta?

[heavy dew]

Way too far in the future to announce yet, we’re waiting for announcement about closed alpha next couple months

[tight lake]

We be chilling right now, can't predict what will happen in November, tho!

[pale comet]

I see. I cant wait to try it. Been looking for a social, casual grind with good housing

[heavy dew]

Any and all updates though will be in #📢│palia-news , they’re very good at publicly announcing new information ^^ you won’t miss anything

[pale comet]

Cant wait ^^

[heavy dew]

Neither!

[pale comet]

Anyone found a game to fill the void till this releases?

[regal swallow]

Aye in #🎮│other-games

[heavy dew]

I haven’t, I haven’t touched a game in 4 weeks. All I’ve done is draw and study or watch Ted talks, but I know a lot of people chill in #🎮│other-games , yeah

[pale comet]

Ah yes. Forgot about that

[regal swallow]

Impart some coziness wholesome into my Pals

[tight lake]

My brain got sidetracked, I want to think about if Palia will allow us to dig pits into the ground in certain locations

[regal swallow]

Diggy Diggy Hole?

[heavy dew]

I don’t think so, they’ve said landscaping will not be a thing

[tight lake]

Like a festival, mud festival or sumthing?

[heavy dew]

Wow they said that very very early I just realized

[tight lake]

Where you get pranked by the Palian inhabitants

Digging a hole for friends to fall into, that sends me into giggles

[heavy dew]

If there’s archeology I’m sure you can dig in predisposed locations but I don’t think you can just make a hole in a public area since it’s an mmo after all

[tight lake]

But you can climb out and the hole vanishes after a while

[pale comet]

Is the storage going to be good in this game? i hate games with lack of storage cough FFIV

[tight lake]

So like a one time prank tool, a craftable item that isn't easily mass produced.. maybe

[heavy dew]

Yeah but it’s more so that if it’s in an open area it’s for anyone to fall in to and then it’s a hindrance on other players and that invokes trolling etc etc, if anything I could imagine it possible in your instanced home plot, but then it’s just you there

[heavy dew]

I’d imagine it’s extensive, they haven’t said or showed yet but there’s some screenshots from pre-alpha that implies good storage based on how.. much.. of things there are

If you haven’t seen said screenshots it’s on the blog about pre-alpha and can be found in #📢│palia-news ^^

Owh, thanks for bringing that to light, I missed the announcement about the Palia blog

Hogwash and gibberish 🤡

[regal swallow]

I read it each time, but I like reading things

[coarse lagoon]

Palia metaverse 🙂

[burnt gazelle]

another game I need to plan my next PC build around lol

[rare saddle]

welcome to the chat

[rare saddle]

wait, no landscaping? no adding flowering bushes or trees? oh my goodness.

[heavy dew]

No terraforming*

Used the wrong word

No terraforming, landscaping probably very likely as there’s farmers

Paraphrasing be like that sometimes, dangerous stuff

[burnt gazelle]

is there anything like stealing, fighting, etc?

[heavy dew]

No combat, no traditional pvp, most “action/combat” like will be hunting, which still isn’t combat. There’s also no player health/death or stamina

I’d assume no stealing/griefing

If you meant from other players, if like Skyrim from npcs I have no idea but I’d say also not likely

When and if they do implement combat it will be optional to partake, if I’m recalling the phrase correctly

[rare saddle]

the idea is to have a comfortable, relaxing, doing hobby stuff, making friends...

[remote latch]

no stealing from players .. but there may be games like who took this or who took that .. let me get the quote

[heavy dew]

The best I got is paraphrasing 4 months, Xrystal is the direct quote expert

[remote latch]

Can I break into another player's home and steal their stuff?
[S6] Eris (he/him) — 06/04/2021
no
michael — 06/04/2021
The breaking in or stealing part? or both?
[S6] Eris (he/him) — 06/04/2021
neither, not super cozy, haha
Jenkins — 06/04/2021
it would be nice play "who of my friends is the impostor who steal my 99lvl sword from my house last night at the party??"
[S6] Eris (he/him) — 06/04/2021
maybe we'll have games like that, but not actually stealing for real, haha```

[remote latch]

4 months for what ?

[heavy dew]

Answers xD

[remote latch]

rofl

oh I see .. I thought you were estimating a time frame rofl

[heavy dew]

No no, I just meant you got them organized I just have them in my head so I can’t provide exact quotes

Except to the ye ol: when

[remote latch]

rofl .. I have them in my head .. semi organized .. and a keyword ( usually ) that helps me grab the quote

[heavy dew]

Yeah that’s what I mean ^^ I don’t have the effort to go get the actual quote when I’m on mobile (which has been for 4 weeks now since I’m not home)

[bright forge]

[remote latch]

Yeah, definitely harder on mobile, I can just about do it .. but only through perserverence rofl

[bright forge]

Hi guys!

How are you all?

[rare saddle]

happy time zone, y'all... it's about 11 am here... been playing games since I got up at 7am!

can't wait until I can spend all my hours playing palia 🙂

[marble hedge]

I can't play games anymore. I start one, play 5 minutes, stop it. No games are interesting me.

[rare saddle]

playing a match-3 Design Island, because I like designing/refurbishing places... so very much looking forward to designing my Palia home, with rooms and awesome decorations!

[bright forge]

Nothing is fun
Not like before
You don't get me high anymore 🎶 ...no?

[marble hedge]

Three Days Grace covered that. I can't say no to them.

[bright forge]

Yep. I love that cover a little more than original tbh.

[marble hedge]

Good rock covers of not-rock songs are like that.... Sound of Silence by Disturbed is another good example.

[heavy dew]

Very agreement

[bright forge]

Since Palia will be more chill game I doubt there will be more "hard" music.... but maybe?

[rare saddle]

hmm. I would think more easy-going music would be the thing.

You could always turn the game volume off and play your own music 😉

[carmine relic]

Fishing peacefully and then suddenly boss music starts

[bright forge]

I know... but Palia rock....

[bright forge]

Duke fishorn has been summoned

I wander if there will be any "Bosses" in Palia. Of course I don't mean fighting them in combat but more of a challenge type ones.

[carmine relic]

Knew that 666% bait power was a bad idea

[remote latch]

There is a main antagonist .. evil/combat needed .. shrugs

[bright forge]

We will HUG until he/she/they... stops being evil.

[carmine relic]

Tax papers?

[remote latch]

Someone stopping you from finding out the truth ...

[carmine relic]

That actually does sound like a legit answer for a boss

What if it's the guy who made humanity disappear? What if it's a guy trying to hide why it happened so nobody can do it again, but everyone went against their wishes, making everyone the actual bad guy?

[remote latch]

[bright forge]

I hope for BBEG they will more like Thanos. Things he done were evil but he havd semi noble goal and you can understand his way of thinking. I hate "I'm evil because no reason and I will kill you all to achieve nothing! MUAHAAHAHA!

[remote latch]

rofl

yeah I feel it is likely someone who doesn't want it to go back to the way it was before .. so maybe they will try and stop us getting so far .. but maybe we have to do something to convince them. shrug begging, pleading, crossing fingers while outright lying rofl

[heavy dew]

Einar went Ultron 10/10

Maybe not Einar but I think we will meet some unfriendly golems in the future story.

I knew I was right in being afraid of golems

Smash the golems with rocks, that always works

I wonder if unfriendly golems look similar to Einar or they have different designs indicating hostility or for different uses

[remote latch]

Well there is a post of images in #🌠│official-art that shows the variety of faces einar has based on the situation

[stone tulip]

I saw those. I like that, especially as a character that doesn't display expression on the face. Kinda like Wall-E

[sullen elm]

Wall-E does display expression though, he moves his eyes around and modulates his voice as well

That’s expressive

I should know I’ve watched Wall-E like 20 times xD

I’ve watched Meet the Robinsons more though

[remote latch]

I've watched them both several times But I love WallE .. time to watch it again rofl

[stone tulip]

WallE was a masterpiece

[marble hedge]

One of the things I really hope for is that you can build your own golem eventually, and there are literally thousands of everyday objects you can use to create it, so every golem looks unique.

[remote latch]

maybe if the tinkerer skill exists .. maybe at one of the later levels for that skill

[marble hedge]

If there's a tinkerer skill, that's my primary skill. And I hope they don't ?$>#% it up like WOW.

[stone tulip]

Y E S The golem is a hodgepodge of random things, put that in suggestions

[marble hedge]

I think I have

[stone tulip]

👍

[wheat vigil]

i just found this game looks sick , looking forward to it

[remote latch]

welcome Sajt

Yes it is 🙂

If you want to read more about it .. the #❔│game-faqs channel is a good place to start

[frail juniper]

i heard that we may or may not get an email that invites us to play it, this real?

[remote latch]

Yes, its a selection for testing access .. so as long as you sign up with your email you get a chance to test the game before it is released

[frail juniper]

is the game gonna be free or paid?

when it comes out

[remote latch]

At the moment we are waiting for Alpha testing to start. Pre Alpha recently finished so they are working some more on the game before giving some of us access.

We don't know anything about anything money wise yet. They'll let us know when they're ready to. The game itself is said to be 'much less than 3 years from release' as per a June post from the devs.

[frail juniper]

ok thanks

[remote latch]

The #❔│game-faqs channel has alot of the more frequent questions covered and will point you to some community compiled documents from dev posts on the server.

[wheat vigil]

il kooging at stuff about the game

this and bitcraft is my next game to be hyped about

[warm plover]

maybe ill update my doc someday... zzzzzz.....

[carmine relic]

Did something happen?

[vale crypt]

👻

[atomic agate]

Good Mango everyone hope you are having a great day 🥭

[remote latch]

Nah. Rin has just been reminded about his document 🤣

[carmine relic]

Ah

[deft vector]

does anyone know of any podcasts talking about palia recently? im an avid pod consumer

[remote latch]

I don’t know of any but I wouldn’t know where they would be unfortunately.

I only know of you tube videos talking about stuff on here and Twitter.

[deft vector]

im not as familiar with twitter, but youtube is pretty on point with podcasters/twitch peeps

[remote latch]

Palia has their own Twitter account which is accessible from #🐦│social-feed

[unique jasper]

😄

how is everyone doing? 🙂

can't wait to finally be able to immerse in this world !

[celest maple]

doing well, had a very stressful few days

it’s getting calmer and easier to handle though. also it’s getting late so im getting sleepy. how are you doing?

[vivid heath]

Hi everyone! I'm new here, and excited to see progress on the game ❤️

[remote latch]

For the lurkers out there and any newcomers. Welcome to Palia : Auni's Mail Service. Auni is looking forward to meeting us, I could even say excited ( ) so much so that he is browsing through the channels himself acquiring useful documents that you may want to take a look out . So look out for information from the official channels. Auni will likely visit the #❔│game-faqs,#❓│old-team-answers-alpha and #🌠│official-art channels first and then maybe the currently archived #❓│old-team-answers-pre-alpha channel, lots of humans in there. He will be fascinated to know that the #❔│game-faqs also includes links to the documents compiled by Rin and Vlad, members of our human community. Once you have read through these documents you should know what we know about Palia : The Game so far. Auni will hopefully remember that there is a Pre-Alpha blog on the Palia site that can be accessed via the #📢│palia-news channel or the bottom of the Palia site itself and will send that along to you too. If you sign up and fill in the surveys I am sure Auni will gladly deliver these to the developers so that you get a chance to visit him and his family and friends. Again, welcome and we hope you enjoy waiting with us .

hi Crash. Job wise .. if you haven't already looked, they have their available jobs listed on their company site ( https://www.singularity6.com/careers )

[vivid heath]

Yes, i saw their job list, but i'm 18 and with no laboral experience yet, so i'll wait for now

[remote latch]

Yeah, they're not at the stage for interns yet but it will give you an idea of what type of things they look for in each field

[sand barn]

Uruguay is a pretty country

[vivid heath]

Thank you so much 😉

[vivid heath]

It is, i have been living here since i was 4, and i love it hahah

[sand barn]

I lived there for a few years when I was younger, have some good memories!

[vivid heath]

That's nice! Where did you live in?

[sand barn]

Montevideo!

[vivid heath]

Same as me hahahah, it has some beautiful places

[wet ether]

What do you call an ant in a cryo-lab testing facility going in for their second round?

A refrigerant

[hidden lynx]

Animal Crossing new horizons question in #🎮│other-games for anyone who can help 🥺

[heavy dew]

G’devening pals

[stone tulip]

Evening

[carmine relic]

Aye, heya Berry!

[dusty root]

(insert emotion) timezone!

Obviously I needed sleep as I went to bed around 5-6am and just woke up at 7pm >.>

[past vessel]

oh my

[hidden lynx]

Alannah 👀 that's a schedule I guess

[heavy dew]

clears throat in preparation for a comment alannah will definitely like
You were just catching up on lost sleep

[dusty root]

siiiiiigh

[zealous hazel]

Sounds like a pretty fishy situation if you go to bed that late

[heavy dew]

Depends, not if you’re a nightshifter ^^

[carmine relic]

Wait, is there something wrong with sleeping at 2-3am?

[heavy dew]

Or, a student, I’ll use that excuse for myself, definitely why I’m up late

[zealous hazel]

Or an architecture student, I guess. I do that too.

[heavy dew]

Yeah student haha, same
Architecture! That’s neat!

[zealous hazel]

"This drawing won't take longer than 2 hours"

[carmine relic]

People in my house can't shut up and stay still, so I just wait until everyone falls asleep so I can think in silence

[heavy dew]

Mhmmm.. yeah that’s, yup

“This drawing or this equation or this thesis won’t take more than a couple hours at most”
“Just finishing this segment”

[zealous hazel]

Looks at watch, 5 hrs past

Yep, I am doomed

[heavy dew]

And then you look up 15 minutes later and 6 hours passed

[zealous hazel]

Hahaha

[heavy dew]

I’m sure there’s a correlation there with time travel and imma figure that equation out somehow

[zealous hazel]

I spent 6 hours fixing my phrasing, as well as layout design of my thesis.

[carmine relic]

If you wanna make a time machine, I'm in!

[zealous hazel]

I think I spent most of my time laying out my pages than on the actual body of the thesis

[heavy dew]

Yeah I did the same thing this Thursday.. Was just gonna finish one paragraph of my thesis and ended up writing the whole thing.. then the next day was brushing up etc etc

[zealous hazel]

I always end up leaving things till the last minute, but last year I literally forced myself with doing everything as it came... saved me so much stress

[heavy dew]

I’m in that sentence and I don’t like it

[zealous hazel]

I think I only pulled 5 all nighters last year

[heavy dew]

My deadline was Friday haha

[zealous hazel]

Otherwise I have a nice 11 to 8.30 sleep schedule

Well, apart from weekends and breaks

[heavy dew]

I’m getting there too, happy to hear someone else made it work out!

[zealous hazel]

All it took was giving all my game accounts to my brother and making him change the passwords along with email

[heavy dew]

Omg haha

[zealous hazel]

Had actual withdrawals the first few weeks istg

[heavy dew]

I’ve been on a game break for 4 weeks, but for studying? I might need to lock my phone in a safe

Soon as palia is out, god save my grades

[zealous hazel]

I'm not too invloved in social media so that doesn't bother me much

[heavy dew]

Neither, just a bunch of group chats and fomo on my part

I guess it counts as social media, just no insta, Twitter, Facebook etc. text conversations

[zealous hazel]

I have a very small friends group anyways... 8 people to be exact

Those 8 people are on my course coincidentally

[heavy dew]

Irl ones I got the same 7 since 14 years back

[carmine relic]

My friend group is... iiiitt's... I can't actually remember.

[heavy dew]

Everyone else comes and goes

[tight lake]

That makes group work nicer...

[heavy dew]

“Coincidentally” or actually coincidentally xD

[zealous hazel]

In quotations probably is better

I have more like "friends" but these are more people who are "friends friends"

If that makes sense

[heavy dew]

Perfect sense, the kind of friends you can count on one hand

Type of deal, now if it’s 4 or 8 makes little difference, but the real ones

[tight lake]

Yeah, "friends you can hang out and relax with" vs "friends you paste on a polite smile for"?

[zealous hazel]

Being able to sit with them from 9am to 8pm 5 days a week and still be able to hang out with afterwards

[heavy dew]

“The friends you can call at 4am because.. well, anything”

[zealous hazel]

Architecture campus here is weird anyways

[heavy dew]

Where is “here”? If I may ask

[zealous hazel]

We are very tight-knit community eitherways because our campus is in the city center, the main campus is 5km out from it

Rather not specify 😄

[heavy dew]

No need, was rather a country question but not all questions deserve answers ^^

[zealous hazel]

Over the last 4 years I haven't had a single lecture on the main campus, I don't even know how the building looks like inside

@heavy dew What do you study?

[heavy dew]

Science of engineering/ electro mechanics and applying for technical physics and material study in fall ^^

[zealous hazel]

Oh, I am sorry to hear that!

:p

[heavy dew]

Haha, hey we all gotta have a hobby

[carmine relic]

I kinda wanna get into space-stuff now that I got Kerbal with me

[heavy dew]

I told you I can sneak you into my classes Gambit ^^

[carmine relic]

Aw yeah

[heavy dew]

At least the ones you deem relevant for space, physics at least could prove important

[carmine relic]

It definitely does. Ones that involve pronouncing greek letters is also probably good, too

[dusty sage]

Any news from the game? last update was more than a month ago :)

[marble hedge]

There have been releases for graphics and such. But nothing about alpha or release dates.

[surreal crest]

FINALLY DONE!
although I get a CPU Fan error upon boot, but its 2 am and Im tired just wanted to let you all know it works

[carmine relic]

YAY!

[remote latch]

Now go to bed if you haven’t already and check that fan error in the morning 🙂

[surreal crest]

already fixed it, this thing is loud as hell but its pretty too, gonna post a pic in a second

[remote latch]

They said it may be at least a few months before they’ll be talking about alpha.

[celest maple]

they got all the hype for the game too early oof

its sad that when its gonna be in alpha most ppl that was here from the start wont even know it

[remote latch]

I’m here for the long haul. Been here every day since the day after it was announced. The reason why it was announced so early is so that they have some people to help them with what works and doesn’t work etc. Some people are still around but we are waiting for more details about the game so we have something different to talk about 🙂

[celest maple]

ill also be here, it's just a shame they were so far from launch

who knows, maybe tiktok will blow the game up again when its in alpha

[remote latch]

Also anyone invited to alpha will get an email so they’ll know if and when they are invited to test

I’m not a tiktok watcher so no idea on that but there won’t be anything new from here and Palia Twitter due to NDA.

[rugged wolf]

Oh thats cool to know

[heavy dew]

They’ll do an @ again and it’ll blow up, wave 2 was the same

[celest maple]

I t hink (primarily) this discord and game got a lot of hyper because of tiktok

the game went super viral on there

[remote latch]

Whenever we get an info dump or a game announcement this place gets busy

[rugged wolf]

Oh did it ?

[heavy dew]

It went viral everywhere, so many news articles, YouTube reviews, tweets

[celest maple]

it did, yes

[remote latch]

Oh everyone so far has said they were brought here from YouTube videos. I don’t know anyone who mentioned tiktok except you so far but I may have missed them 🙂

[heavy dew]

Most I hear is streamers or youtubers bringing people, but then again I haven’t talked to 99% of the discord

[remote latch]

Maybe the quiet ones are the tiktok viewers rofl

[heavy dew]

That would surprise me since I hear they’re quite loud and like public stunts for clout
(This is a joke and not to be taken seriously)

[faint dawn]

None of my youtubers or anyone looked at palia..

[remote latch]

I think the main reason for the discord slump is because we’ve caught up with info they can give us so instead of 2 or 3 days of something to come here for we appear to be down to 1 maybe 2 days. Hopefully they will leap ahead in a while and increase the weekly info they can release. 🤞

[faint dawn]

Theyre all neck deep in simulatora

I... want nothing more.. then to just fangirl about this game..

[dusty root]

Well. Answers from the ask-the-team round should be in a week or so. So it'll be active for a day or so again XD

[remote latch]

Yeah it will get busy for a day or two then rofl

[heavy dew]

I’m dreading the day they announce alpha invites

I wanna be here but also not xD

[celest maple]

is it allowed to mention other games in the chat?

[heavy dew]

#🎮│other-games is full of it ^^

[celest maple]

i know but i just wanna mentiuon one game

[heavy dew]

They get mentioned in here too but more in-depth conversations about other games usually gets asked to move

[celest maple]

im so excited for the hytale game idk if anyone knows about it

[remote latch]

Yeah they’ve been talking about in the other channel

[heavy dew]

It’s been brought up a couple times ^^ I still only see minecraft mmo but I get why people are excited

[celest maple]

well i guess if ur into minecraft its cool

[heavy dew]

There’s mmo servers for minecraft if you wanna not wait for hytale

[celest maple]

yea ive been playing a bit on those

[remote latch]

ok think I'm having an early night .. kinda rofl .. hopefully sleep off this headache rofl

[river ermine]

When will the game be released?

[heavy dew]

There’s no release date yet but what we have is this:

#❓│old-team-answers-pre-alpha message

So, <3 years

[river ermine]

Thanks!!

[heavy dew]

Any time!

[carmine relic]

"We're 1 day closer to release."

[hushed sphinx]

Thats true 😫

[marble hedge]

< 2 years, 8 months

7 months on Nov 4th

[celest maple]

Kind of makes me wonder if theres stuff we can do to help make the progress faster

[vale crypt]

Gift them an espresso machine

[hidden lynx]

If you have any experience or have friends who do in making games the company has quite a few positions open right now 👀 you could share that around and help fill those slots

[celest maple]

I'm afraid most of my personal experience with making games revolves around concept design for most visual aspects and creating tileset maps for RPGMaker games. I've also been compiling, creating, building, and compiling lore and some miscellaneous busywork. None of it on professional level, of course, but if any of that sounds like it has potential to be useful I'd be happy to provide, since all I'm doing at the moment is just random art commission work. I'll make sure to spread the news, though! Is there some list of particularly sought after talents and skills?

[abstract rover]

hello pals

[celest maple]

Hello!

[hidden lynx]

Here is their website and the current open positions! https://www.singularity6.com/careers

Was just giving an option to help the game progress faster 🥺 not an expectation of you specifically doing the stuff and things haha

[celest maple]

Ah- no, I didn't read it as that, no worries. I just tend to run my mouth past the acceptable point! Thanks for the link, I'll share it about.

[spring rivet]

good morning pals!

[sand barn]

Good morning Duck!

[lavish monolith]

hi

[lavish monolith]

bye

[warm plover]

yaaay i got my first covid shot

Also yaaaaay slowmode got reduced

I'm a little dizzy but idk if thats just cause im tired lol
Even if I get kinda sick, it really can't be worse than the time I stopped my antidepressants! So I have that going for me at least

[merry swift]

Good morning EU! Nice to meet you palia server 😊

[sand barn]

Welcome!

[warm plover]

Guten morgen

And nice to meet you!

[merry swift]

I've heard a couple of people say they got a bit dizzy after the shot, make sure you're well hydrated 😊

[warm plover]

Okey dokey! I usually have a bottle of water with me all the time anyway

[carmine relic]

Good morning!

[warm plover]

Gambit did u know that the slowmode got reduced aaaa

[carmine relic]

I didn't even notice

[warm plover]

its 5s now

[sand barn]

Didn't mind the slowmode that much 😅

[carmine relic]

Heck yeah

[warm plover]

ok time to vanish again

[wintry wasp]

Rin the ninja cat.

[carmine relic]

I should sleep

[merry swift]

Can I recommend chamomile tea? I have trouble sleeping and it's been saving me recently 😭

[warm plover]

I should learn to enjoy tea, since I hear coffee is bad for your vocal cords (I'm a singer)

But I haven't enjoyed the ones I've tried in the past :(

[merry swift]

Honestly, I used to be indifferent to tea, then I went to a teashop and tried actually good tea and it blew my mind

[wintry wasp]

I think it's because coffee is more acidic, but too much of both probably are bad in the long run.

[merry swift]

I think it really depends on the tea, some are going to be worse than others, but generally tea is pretty chill
