I noticed that the world of Glitch seems to have only three animals: piggies, chickens, and butterflies. The makers of Glitch should really diversify their world's biosphere.
I'm reviving this because I'm curious to know what other animals people would like to see in the game, and what function they could possibly serve?
I'm hoping for squirrels. Just for cuteness.
As for more functional animals... maybe cats, which you could harvest hairballs from and, of course, the hairballs would serve some other purpose, haha.
Elephants. Which could provide ivory. Horses. Which could give us glue.
Penguins. I know I'm not the only one who wants them. I can't think of a function of penguins in Glitch though... unless... you could squeeze them for fish?
'The variant on this that developed in the staff IRC channel was: "but, that'd be cool .... competing projects to build a statue of a goat, a bunny or a frog ... whichever gets completed first is the one which we add to the game" (See the second post on fuckyeahkukubee.tumblr.com/ for a picture of the goat.)" - stoot
Actually, I remember suggesting (this forum topic) a Groddle Heights mountain goat... and behold a few weeks later... fuckyeahkukubee posted one. Could have been coincidence though. Still, would love to see more animals.
Remember "My Pet Monster"? It would be cool to have a pet monster that is customizable. It could help the Glitches find hidden items and be tied to skills, level achievement and quests.
Flying monkeys that weild bananas and other random objects because monkeys love to steal and find things. Ps, monkeys love to get drunk
This maybe inappropriate but I would find it funny if you could get shrooms from a cow. Worse yet, consuming shrooms should make bizzarre things happen to your screen, purgatory shows up, rainbows, holes opening, the rook appears, or pigs start to fly.. To make it less overt, call it fun gee. Could boost mood, depending on what u see. It may also transport you to a random place
Snakes that give you snake oil, which will sap your energy and increase your mood.
hm.... maybe we can squeeze crabs for allergys? the allergys can give you a mood decrease and energy decreases but have chances of having your energy refilled and mood refilled?
just a thought (-:
I'd like to see pets, but i like that there are only 3 animals that give resources. If there are other random animals in the world, I would like them to be like the crab where you show something and they have you something, like a rabbit who gives out rabbits feet. Or each Giant can have an animal traveling around the world. I don't really want to see other resource animals.
