AUGUST 2023 NEWSLETTER

Posted 9 months ago :: Last edited 9 months ago by Digimon

Hi everyone! Monthly news for you :]

 

August Breeding:


We will be having a breeding opening this month! We will be hosting the raffle to pay today (8/1) and rolling the raffle/opening the FCFS slots tomorrow (8/2) !

All SpaceStation species are able to be bred, however crossbreeding the species is not allowed at this time! So your breeding pair would have to be the same species, at least for this batch!

The form for the raffle to pay, along with information on when the FCFS slots open will be posted in the discord server!

 

August Monthly Madness:


This month’s theme is Vacations! Draw and/or write your SpaceStation character going on a Vacation!
The August monthly madness will last till August 31st!

 

Art Redemption Reminders:

  • Gift Art and Staff Art bonuses are not stackable!
    • Staff Art only refers to cats on the Staff and NPC page viewable here !
  • Art trades can be listed as gift art!
  • The only types of art that cannot be redeemed for cloud coins are:
    • Any art that was commissioned (for IRL currency, any sort of in-game currency, or cloud coins)
    • The initial image of your MYO that was submitted to the site.
    • Base fills and YCHs
    • Event based art prompts (unless otherwise specified)


Trait Changes:

 

  • Bubbles/Foam at the tip of the tail are now required for sodacats! (You can view Fizz’s tail tip as an example of what we mean! )
    • We will go back and adjust already approved cats to have an illegal trait (You are not required to redesign your character no worries! You may continue to use them as is, however if you ever choose to redesign them you will be required to fix any illegal traits!)
  • Big cats and wild cats may now have any features that appear on the irl animal added for free to your MYOs. (So for example you may give a lion based big cat the mane trait for free, or a tiger based spacecat rounded ears without the need of an item, caracals may be given long standing ears, ect.)
    • The only exception to this is shaped tail, which still requires a rare trait addon!

 

Misc:

 

  • A dming feature has been added on-site! You may now DM other users, either by clicking the “Message User” button on their profile or by clicking “New Message” in your inbox!
    • On the same topic as above you can access your inbox either by clicking the link on the navbar under “Home” or by clicking the link on the left hand sidebar!
  • We have removed the myth limit from all cats!
  • kssz8 has made a few random generators for the species! You can view them here if you’d like to mess around with them! Sodacats , Guppymanders , and Spacecats !
  • Starting next month (September) Pulsars, Blueberry Sodas, and Silver Eggs will be changed to raffle to pay instead of FCFS!
  • We are converting all leftover candy to cloud coins! This has been on the backburner for a while but we finally have time to sit down and take care of it.

Thank you all for tuning in!

 

JULY 2023 NEWSLETTER

Hi everyone! Here's July's newsletter :]

 

ART FIGHT BONUS:

 

All art submitted to art fight currently gets a 2x cloud coin bonus! Make sure to check the art fight box when submitting to art redemption to recieve this bonus :]

 

 

CHANGES TO ART REDEMPTION:

 

Instead of adding a critera per character, we have added a number input box allowing you to add how many characters fit the critera filled out!

EX: You drew a simple scene with 3 characters, 2 of the 3 are fullbodies and 1 is a bust. You'd fill out a total of 3 criteras, 1 for the background, 1 for the two fullbodies, and 1 for the bust!

The art redemption guide will be updated to reflect this shortly!

June 2023 Newsletter (Part 2)

Posted 11 months ago :: Last edited 11 months ago by Digimon

Hi everyone! Here’s part 2 of the June newsletter - it's a long one as we have a special event and some other exciting announcements! Please be sure to read through entirely.


Merging with Sodaplanet:


As some of you may already know, Digimon has been gifted Sodacats/Longyu by C-Side, and as of today the species will be merging together! Spacecats, Sodacats, and Longyu will all be a part of the same universe, and we plan to have some lore revolving around how the three species are related, along with eventually adding some actual ARPG elements to the site soon.


While a big change, we hope you guys end up enjoying it. An announcement has been made in the Sodaplanet Discord server on how to get your inventories onto your on-site accounts - please read it over for more information!

Changes to Sodaplanet:

  • Longyus have been renamed Guppymanders, since there is already a real animal called Longyus - we’ve decided it's best the name is changed!
  • Some traits have been shifted around, removed, or added!
    • Normal Eyes has been split into two separate traits, Standard Iris and Dark Pupils
    • Overgrown Fangs has been renamed Saber Teeth
    • Glowing has been renamed Bioluminescence
    • Rings have been split into two separate traits, Rings and Halo
    • Point Ears have been renamed Standard Ears
    • Tuft Ears have been changed to a modifier trait (as in they are now not an ear type of their own, they need to be stacked on top of another ear trait) and renamed Fur Ear Tufts
    • Long Ears have been renamed Long Standing Ears
    • Colored Sclera has been split into two traits, (Rare) Dark Sclera and (Uncommon) Colored Sclera
    • Colored Pupil has been added as an uncommon trait
    • Extra limbs has been split into two traits, (Rare) Extra Limbs (Less than 4) and (Mythical) Extra Limbs (More than 4)
    • Stitches have been detraited
    • Heterochromia has been detraited
    • Decorations have been detraited (Although your sodacat still requires one, there are just no rarity tiers anymore.)
    • Smooth/Layered Soda has been removed as a trait
    • Standard Bubbles has been added as a trait
    • Sodacats now require bubbles throughout their soda
    • Shaped Eyeball has been detraited, as a team we feel this is more a stylistic choice than anything.
    • Stream Tail has been renamed to Cat Tail, as we noticed most end up just looking like regular cat tails.
    • Fountain Hair (hair made of soda that is unstyled or flowy, akin to the Spacecat wispy/loose hair traits) has been added as a common trait
    • Fur Hair and No Hair have been added as a trait
    • Shaped Hair (Hair made of soda that is styled) has been added as an uncommon trait
    • Bubble Tail has been renamed Bobbed Tail
    • Flop Ears has been renamed Long Floppy Ears
    • Fins have been renamed Aquatic parts. This is now a common trait on Guppymanders (for any aquatic traits outside of the gils, whiskers, and fins that the species requires) and an uncommon trait on Sodacats.
    • Antenna has been renamed Insect Parts and can now be any insect features.
    • Transformation has been renamed Shapeshifting
    • Multiple forms has been renamed Multi-form
    • Companion Growth has been renamed Companions, and bumped down to rare instead of mythical
    • Hooves have been renamed Paw Mutations and can now be any unusual paw shape.
    • Long/Short fish tail has been merged into one single Fish Tail trait
    • Rarity colors have changed
  • Event traits have been merged into other existing traits, or simply detraited.
  • Pearlcoins have been converted to Cloudcoins at a rate of 1PC:10CC
  • Butterfly Pea Syrup has been renamed Rainbow Sweetener
  • Straw has been renamed Silly Straw
  • Sparkling Soda has been renamed Refreshing Tonic
  • Blueberry, Strawberry, and Golden Sugar have been added as items, these items will add an uncommon, rare, or mythical trait to a pre-made Sodacat or Guppymander. Syrups can now only be used on MYOs.
  • Shaken sodas have been added - randomized Sodacat MYO slots! It can have any traits, regardless of rarity, however all of the listed traits must be used! Guppymanders now have a similar MYO called Scrambled Eggs! These items are currently only purchasable via the USD shop and occasionally obtainable during events.
  • Diamond Soda has split into 2 items, Diamond Soda (for sodacats) and Golden Egg (for guppymanders)
  • Mini Soda has split into 2 items, Mini Soda (for sodacats) and Small Egg (for guppymanders)
