First Shop Creature

Good news everybody :) We now have a creature available in the shop (as well as some other pets that we created for the regular gathering). We plan to have more of these in the coming days, as well as some of the exotic / legendary pets that we've been hoping for since the beginning.

The shop creatures require coins, which means that all that coin gathering you've been doing can now be put to good use. As you've already seen, we're growing extremely quickly, and the rate of growth has now tripled. Thanks to our new server, new art, and new features, you're quickly helping UniCreatures take off to a whole new level!

Server has moved!

Good news, everybody. The propogation went pretty quickly. Our server is now updated, and working again! There were a few glitches before, but now they're working out relatively well. We're still in the process of going through and editing a few things, but it seems that everything is (for the most part) back to normal.

I'd like to give an ENORMOUS thanks to ObsidianX for being the one who made this possible. Purchase, configuring, and switching to a virtual server and propogating the DNS entries in less than 12 hours is certainly not an easy task. And without ObsidianX, it just simply would not have been possible.

UniCreatures Changing Servers

The UniCreatures site is about to change servers in the next day or two. We will be trying to do this as quickly and smoothly as possible, but the speed of it's development is growing extremely quickly. It peaked so high, that it nearly shut down our host - so, shortly put, they've actually asked us to get a Virtual Server (which we're about to go ahead and do).

If you see any downtime in the next day or two, please don't worry. UniCreatures will be back up and running more smoothly than before!

New Creatures Available!

Thanks to the magnificent artist, Auna, we now have a new creature available: the Melody family. The melody family is a family of mermaids. We also are planning on having the Flick family very shortly - a dragonfly family.

Other creatures should also follow shortly after that. :)

UniCreature Update

Greetings again!

I've been hearing these crazy rumors from people that you all want more. You wanted... combat features? More items? More pets!? .... well, okay. We hear you loud and clear, and we're already in the process of giving it to you. Of course, I do need a bit more art (it's a very untimely coincidence that all our artists are busy this last week), but I released some features today.

For starters, combat is now actually useful. If you prepare a combat squad, you'll be able to fight in combat. The higher the people you fight in combat, the more coins you'll earn (gasp! a new feature!). Similarly, when training, you also now possess the ability to do certain types of training to receive coins.

Coins are going to eventually be able to be used for purchasing items, eggs, or even stat upgrades, or the ability to join in special events. But it's safe to say that they WILL do something, so go ahead and start gathering coins! You'll be able to use them eventually, so it doesn't hurt to get them now.

Thanks!
~ Brint and the UniCreatures team.

UniCreatures now has news!

Greetings everybody!

Thanks to all of our wonderful users, UniFaction and UniCreatures have been growing at an extremely fast rate. Faster than any numbers we've ever seen before (and we've been doing this for quite a while). It looks like our newest invention was a major success, and I wanted to keep it that way.

New art is being released! You will get to see it shortly. Now we want to pay attention to the users. What do you guys want? What can make this an enjoyable experience for you? We've already done some of that research on UniFaction, but UniCreatures is a new adventure for us. So please, let us know!

A storyline will also be coming, as well amazing features that all of you will enjoy.

Again, thanks a lot for making the UniFaction groups so popular!

Take care for now!
~ Brint, and the rest of the UniFaction Staff.
