Letters from the Dev

New

• Eleven more friends: Peep, Bonzo, Boo, Hopkin, Digs, Gloop, Ember, Upa, Bolt, Fang and Sporey, each with its own habits and Extra annoying tricks.
• Every friend has its own size, from little Peep to Ember, the biggest. Eggs match.
• Boo doesn’t hatch any more. It rises from the newest grave on your screen.
• Fang is born unable to fly. Hold it up and let go until it learns, or it won’t make it.
• New toys for Nekoshi: a feather wand (your pointer becomes the stick) and a cardboard box to pounce on and shred.
• Throw Nekoshi’s toy mouse and it brings it back to your pointer. Leave it lying about and it goes off.
• Upa has its own voice: squeaky little calls and bubbles.
• Each friend has its own background pattern on its cards.
• An Overweight tag on the stats card. Running around and playing burns it off.

Changed

• Nekoshi is moody about toys. When it isn’t feeling great, it may turn its back and groom instead. Try another toy.
• Petting a sleeping friend no longer wakes it, and a tired nap turns into a real sleep.
• Ember only comes in dragon colours.
• Menus, cards and sticky notes open on the screen your friend is on.

Fixed

• Wings, tails and gills were cut off on some friends.
• Sporey’s smile and legs ran into each other.
• Nekoshi uses less of your computer’s power, especially on your other screens.

New

• The first builds: Nekoshi and Squib hatch from eggs, eat, play fetch, poop, get sick and hold grudges.
• Graves, sticky notes, and friends who leave for good when they’re ignored.
• Six personalities, Extra annoying mode, and 100 names to roll.
• Pebski, the free rock: it rolls in, does nothing, and chips a pixel at a time until it breaks.
• Friends walk across all of your screens.

Changed

• The download went from 367 MB to 1.6 MB.
