Star Stable Online, Horse Progression beta!

Here I tested out two future horse level up rewards: Follow (and stay), and Call Horse.

I don't know when we will get this update yet but I really REALLY appreciate the huge yellow XP bar being gone from the bottom of the screen. XD

Not me asking for seal pets returning since 2020. 👀

Midsummer event 2021

Alright, time for a feedback & brainstorming session!

Feel free to reblog and add your own feedback, suggestions, ideas, I will send in a feedback summary and a list of ideas from the StarFam to the Team. 🤗

My opinion:

So... empty. Where are the things we could actually do? Where are the Soul Horsies with their cute flower crowns? Where's Emma so we can Wiii all over Jorvik? I just don't see any point to log in actively because of the event as it is. 😞

The flower crown crafting was removed on purpose, I understand that, and I will happily buy the Pandoric wreath for all my accounts. But that's all for me. I see years-old bugs, some new ones, and nothing really that would make me want to log in besides letting players know about known bugs when I happen to be online.

I miss actually doing things during Midsummer, a lot. 😔

A few ideas that could make this event more interactive:

* Midsummer pet!! Cute reward for doing something. Little froggie with a tiny flower wreath on its head for example. New jumping pet! 🐸🌸🌺🌼

* Midsummer limited rewards we could get for completing tasks or trading in event collectables.

* Learn about real endangered flowers and collect photos of them in a collection. New botanist NPC.

* Bring in a similar multiplayer minigame like the snowcannons in the winter event. Hide and seek? Flowery rope pulling competition amongst 8 players (2 groups)? Fishing minigame? Flower petal catching race against NPCs? Anything really.

* Farah's Midsummer Workshop for limited items.

* Bringing back NPC rides & actually talking NPCs with small story hints in their conversation.

* Limited flowery hairstyle and makeup.

* Fixing bugs that's been annoying players for years.

That's all, thanks for reading, and feel free to add your own thoughts to this post.

P.S.: If I don't remember last Midsummer correctly and we didn't have Emma as an NPC who could join for a ride, I apologize.

Hello there lovely Tumblr Starfam!

Here's an ambassador announcement from yours truly:

You may have noticed others wearing a new tack and outfit set with a purple temporary texture.

This set wasn't supposed to be released just yet, so these items will be removed from the shop.

Please note: if you buy these items, they will stay in your inventory, but do so only at your own risk.

These items will be available with their final textures in a future update - everyone who bought it previously will get the final texture on the day these will get released.

Thank you for reading! Stay awesome! 🤗

P.S.: I need a verryyy purple set like this one. 😂💜

P.P.S.: This is Marbleduke and he is fabulous in the TEMP :3 tack. 😆

I don't want to double post about the TEMP :3 set but I finally made an insta post about it too.

Just let me show you the last slide: Snekdris (Ydris as a snek) with the temp texture. 😆💜🐍

Testing, testing, trying to post something for a change. 👀

So uh, I found my favorite angle to take photos of deers and it ended up this way. A doodle meme.

Quality 👏 Content 👏

A.k.a. Evy noticed Heidrun has a mustache.

And the inspiration: the Area 51 Naruto runner meme.

If anyone wants more judgy deer - here he is as a gif.

Most or hopefully all the April Fool's dialogues from Ydris. 🔮💜👀

I call this

Jorvik Divined card reveal - Part 2

I also illustrated Drop. It's not a happy rune, and it wasn't easy painting this. I just had a feeling I should give it a try when there was a chance to draw a second card. I relate to this card a lot. The feeling of being lost and seeing no way out.

Also, Shady is baby again. 💜 I just painted a mini version of him as a joke, but he didn't get into the final version, simply because no one could see his cute smile on a printed card. ;.; But, I just had to include him in the digital presentation. 💕

Both cards took me weeks to finish and they have around 200 layers each. At first I was afraid to join the project because - as usual - I doubted my own art skills. I still doubt them but maybe I improved a bit. 🙈

Thank you @jorvegiancollective for this opportunity and all the support. 💜🤗

Me looking for distraction and pretending to write an article for the in game Jorvik Gazette? More likely than you think.

Oh, the photos aren't messed up for a change.

Donkey gifs, they are already on my Giphy account. One step closer to making them usable stickers.

Bonus special rare Pandorian donkey. Wait for it 👀
