Ah, I know! But I have to stick to the rules. I can't just give you one because it would be unfair for the other players. Cruel world! :) Thank you for participating!! :)
I think it would be cool if there is a way to declare pet ownership as a sub token on the steem blockchain, much like @biophil created POCKETS as a sub token. Or when the new Steem SMTs are released, make a PXLPET token, release a very limited supply, and have every token associated with one PXLPET! Buy one unique token to get one unique pet!
Also, would be cool if the pets have stats. You may want to expand PXLPETS in the future so they can play together/against each other in a game format. So at a minimum, give each pet a random value for Health, Offense, Defense. Or whatever you decide. :)
I have some ideas sketched out for some Steem related games. I may approach you in the future for some graphics work. You got da skillz!
To anyone who read this far, I don't have fancy graphics or meme creating ability, but I do have ideas, and I do come here Every Day for over 500 days now, commenting and Up voting on lots of Steemit posts. So since I am here anyway, I will definitely be willing and able to care for my PXLPET! Vote for me and I'll take Great Care of my pet!!! π
Yes, that sounds pretty cool! But if I would add stats I would have to program a real mmo like game and I think this is quite havy for me at the moment. Maybe I have to collaborate with a more advanced programmer at some point. The PXLPET token also sounds interesting! Thanks for your inspiration! I hope the game will be fun the way it is for now! I am really excited how everthing will work out. I really have to think of some special event or something. :)
Sound like we need a Discord group to discuss some of these ideas! I think we would come up with a few good ideas and maybe a few developers/designers interested in it as well.
You just have to vote for this guy. @kenny-crane, you're awesome. i actually don't know how to set my UPVOTEs to 1% but you're definitely worth the 100% even though mine's just $0.01. I hope you win. Goodluck
As a holder of many cryptokitties this is totally something that I would like to own, nurture and take care of it too!
However, for that I need you. Yeah, I am talking to you! I refreshed a lot of my voting power and I will use that voting power to upvote people that will help me to win one PXLPET. Bear in mind it's about the number of upvotes, not about the highest potential rewards! After upvoting reply to this comment to get your reward.
I voted for you! π And my vote moved you to the top of the comment list for maximum visibility. π
I found out about the PXLPET project from your other post. Thanks for that! I also decided to comment here and state my desire for a PXLPET. I hope I get one, but if I do not, then I hope it's YOU who gets one!
Hmm maybe I could accept wishes of the winners. For now I wanted to give away pets randomly so you can't decide how it will look like. But maybe one day. :)
Why not incorporate having other people feed your pet with upvotes? This kind of thing would encourage empathy and people taking care of other people.....
That's a cool idea! But than it must be possible that also something bad can happen to the pet right? I mean, what happens when there are no upvotes and it's not feeded? Game Over?
I went to sleep last night dreaming of a pet "mini" turtle! I would love to have a pet turtle form this game and lovely community. And here is why: Turtle Symbolism "The turtle symbolism is characterized by the association with the Earth and earth symbols of groundedness and patience:"
Symbol of the world, of the Earth
Ability to stay grounded, even in moments of disturbances and chaos
Slowing down, pacing yourself
Determination, persistence
Emotional strength and understanding
Ancient wisdom
"The turtle is also linked to the spirit of the water and the fluid nature of emotions." - source
I do not really know how CryptoKitties work but if the owner of a pet tells me he traded his pet I can update the ownership. I just have to change the name above the pets name in the next video.
I was wondering when someone would make a Steemit-based pet project :)
This is how I envision my pet, once I've taught him how to be a good mad scientist (just, you know... more PXLier ;) ):
I do imagine the principle behind pet distribution could be adjusted, as it can be gamed pretty easily by a small group getting together and agreeing to upvote a specific persons comment, and then distributing the pets between them, or just someone with a botnet.
But that can always be adjusted if it's obviously happening.
As for game mechanics... I think a bot could be set up to watch for comments/posts of people with a PXLpet, and then keep a leaderboard and award a small upgrade to the pet of the person who was the most active on Steemit.
Like a little Award the pet can carry with it.. that gets bigger...and bigger.. the more the person wins, until it has to leave it somewhere in the background. the award of course has the name of the user and an image of his/her pet on it at that point ;)
Haha, that would be a funny pet. Thanks for your inspiring ideas. This game is something like an experiment. Let's see if these groups getting together. Like you said that always can be adjusted. I like the idea of an leaderboard. But I have to look up some things since I never made a bot before. I also thought that the items should show the name of the owner. I will have a thought on your ideas! Maybe there will be an update in future posts. Thank you!
Hey, you might want to visit our discord channel in @slothicorn because we have a crypto gaming community in there and you can introduce this in there so people can find it....
here's the channel: https://discordapp.com/invite/GWQHDdR
Package a Bulbasaur for me, to take, and make sure it breeds well... jk
This is an awesome project, the artwork is stunning, you should definitely check @slothicorn if you didn't already.
These little guys are so awesome, what a cool concept. I grew up on SNES so I have a soft spot for all things pixel art, and needless to say this is right up my alley.
I couldn't get behind the crypto kitty craze because I'm honestly not a fan of the designs but I think the concept of it is genius. #Pxlpet appeals to me because of the aesthetic, and I think a core of your community is going to be coming from the retro gaming community as well...something to think about anyway! I'll try and spread the word.
A few questions for you:
What does the proof of ownership look like for a pxlpet? Is it structured like crypto kitties? Will you be able to purchase and breed these little guys in the future?
Hey, thanks for your kind words! I'm not that much into CryptoKitties. But my intention with this project was to create a relaxing world, where you can feel at home for a few minutes every now and then. With your little buddy. :D It was more about a community thing. I think, CryptoKitties is more about trading. But If someone wants to trade I can easily change the ownership in the next update of the video. Every pet will have the username of its owner above its head. Hope that makes it easier to understand. Btw. is the pixel forest your work? It looks amazing!
Dude this is fucking amazing, I love the design of your game and what you are making from it. I am a professional concept designer and illustrator, if you need a hand on this, count on me or catch me on discord (maybe we can actually make this thing bigger than you thought... you know... contacts.)
That is a wonderful idea :)
I would like to have one too. Maybe it is the one that likes helping others to move furniture, or driving them around, or maybe even creating furniture/building houses as he's carpenter/stone mason.
That would be a nice addition to the group : )
Which one to take? They are all cute and super cool!
I want one soo hard!!!!! You know that!!!! With all my pixels!!!
Ah, I know! But I have to stick to the rules. I can't just give you one because it would be unfair for the other players. Cruel world! :) Thank you for participating!! :)
I'd love to have a PXLPET! πππ

Hopefully you get a pxlpet! You deserve to have one my friend! Upvoted this for you!
I know you would make the perfect owner for this perfect pet! I hope you get it Kenny!
This is really beautiful!

Thank you! That's a quite nice campaign. Haha! :)
I want one.
Interesting. I would love one. Maybe a fox. π¦
Hmm maybe I could accept wishes of the winners. For now I wanted to give away pets randomly so you can't decide how it will look like. But maybe one day. :)
Cool! Well out of what you've created so far I really like the turtle and the stag. In case I win :D
Haha, okay noted!

you are not a good person ... XD
jajaaa
Is this minis can be trade too like crypto kitties?

You can always "bribe" a seasoned steemit developer with a PXLpet or upgrade to get him to program a bot ;)
No problemo, love to help :)
how about other pixel artists having and creating their own pet sprites to add to the game ?? :D
I am thinking about something similar at the minute. :)
sounds like a fun game to play.
Cool, I'm glad you like it!
It looks very kawaii, I congratulate you my friend ..
I was never good looking after pets, so I prefer not to participate, because I am very clueless and I do not want them to suffer any harm
Thank you! Imagine you would win now. :D
I feel tempted to upvote xD
Ha!

cooll man!!! you havee the powerrrr

Thank you! Yeah, maybe one day there will be a slothicorn pxlpet. :)
Dude this is fucking amazing, I love the design of your game and what you are making from it. I am a professional concept designer and illustrator, if you need a hand on this, count on me or catch me on discord (maybe we can actually make this thing bigger than you thought... you know... contacts.)
My discord is Anritco (Nic Morales)#7809
Hope to hear from you soon buddy.
Cool, I am glad you like it! We could really have a chat. I contact you soon on discord!
That is a wonderful idea :)
I would like to have one too. Maybe it is the one that likes helping others to move furniture, or driving them around, or maybe even creating furniture/building houses as he's carpenter/stone mason.

Thank you! That sounds cute! :D
Gorgeous graphics. This is better than terrible cryptocats. Make the block :-)
