@ian Thanks for letting us know. Any idea when we'll be able to earn CC through site activities? I hope soon. Then I'll be able to save up for these great rereleases :]

quinoafuntime • 28 April 2022 at 3:30 PM

@froggie welcome to the site! 😊

autumnal • 27 April 2022 at 12:09 PM

That's an interesting idea (site trivia awards CC once a month). That in addition to a conversion terminal and CC from sign ins, questing, etc could be interesting. Or just a conversion terminal to make things simple. It would be nice if something was added to fix the site soon.

aquafaba • 27 April 2022 at 12:00 PM

I agree with you @viltuvitrast that it shouldn't be very difficult to at least try implementing ways to earn CC through site games like questing, site trivia, conversion terminal, etc.

@stormwarden I love what you said.

yeah i really am not a fan of these ☹️ i typically use an adblocker, but i have had eggcave whitelisted for years because i want to support the site... the site has had intrusive ads before (that expand to a huge size if you hover over them even by accident, or that play really loud audio) that have...

galactic_pigeon • 26 April 2022 at 8:50 PM

Just logged on, and... found I don't know if these ads are intentional or not (or supposed to be a permanent thing to the site), but I saw these ads that were pretty annoying. They come up a second after you reload a new page.
They look like this:

@heatherm19 I totally agree with everything you said. Thanks for your post 😊

Out of curiosity, what's the adoptables site that you've played that isn't pay to collect?

I'll also add that I have the ability to pay money, but the fact that this site is so limited for free players and so much co...

@heatherm19

Feel free to correct me if I get anything wrong @orderedchaos

I think that when a mortal creature has low health (maybe less than 10%), there is a chance that they will die every day (I could be wrong, but I think the odds are 1 in 30 or something like that). So a creature might d...

@structuresfromsilence

There really is not anything I can say. ian and the EggCave team are trying to work something out that prevents abuse of the EC->CC terminal, ways to maintain profit, and or other ways that players can obtain CC. "questing/daily-sign ins/scavenger hunts/weekly or monthly c...

heatherm19 • 26 April 2022 at 1:16 PM

I'm pretty new around here and I did have the privilege of being able to buy CC to use in trades and such, so not sure how much my opinion counts... That said, 100% support a 'conversion terminal' and in general the idea of allowing users who *can't* pay real money to still enjoy the creatures that...

structuresfromsilence • 26 April 2022 at 1:04 PM

I'm thinking about this and hope that something is coming soon @ian 😊 would love to get more creatures that I love on this site, but currently most of them are only obtainable by spending money, which is sad.

I hope it isn't annoying, but I'll ping some people that I saw posted in the forums rec...

quinoafuntime • 26 April 2022 at 11:58 AM

@abyssalbard Hi Bard 😊 welcome to the site. There are a ton of great creatures to find (though unfortunately, many of them are very difficult or impossible to get unless you pay money). Let me know if you need any help with anything.

How long does a non-immortal creature have to stay at 0% happiness before it dies? Poking around the site for feedings I've seen a lot of accounts with users who haven't been here in weeks or months, and creatures at 0% happiness but not dead. (Haven't actually seen...

@lbowe_elbow Hello! I am interested in testing for ya! 😊

(I'm also somewhat versed in HTML/CSS/Java/p5js and I do digital illustrations if you need aaany help with the site ! ❤️)

viltuvitrast • 25 April 2022 at 9:25 AM

@galactic_pigeon Well, Ian said in February-

"To recap, we are open to creating a way for users to obtain CC without a direct buy. You all are right. Most other games that I've played have had some other way to obtain the premium currency. But, it has to be done in the right way."

@cranberrycat1 I love the description! I'm having a hard time viewing the pictures, though (it's requiring me to have a Google account to view the files). Any chance that you can upload them to Imgur or some site like that? I'd love to see what the artwork looks like 😊

Orderedchaos • 21 April 2022 at 1:57 PM

@suzanab
Do you have a screenshot of this? I'm not sure what you're actually seeing.

Also, all eggs are on the site, you don't need Google to find them. The hints are all just random as the eggs can be found on any page.

At some point the Easter Egg helper says this Somewhere&hellip. Are you guys sure about this or maybe rephrase it, because I search it on google and it takes me to a [yeep] site...

Deleted • 21 April 2022 at 12:58 PM

I would really like to see my own scores and compare to the site leaderboard to see where I stand. On anything, games, trivia, eggs, etc.

eternalia • 20 April 2022 at 9:50 PM

Hello! I'm Eternalia, but you can call me Eternal, Whirl, or Whirly. Anyway, Eggcave seens like a intresting site, and I'm excited to be apart of it!

stormwarden • 20 April 2022 at 12:25 PM

thanks kindly for the ping! i actually do have lots of thoughts on this, especially because i made my account in 2017 and only just returned. i think if i found this game in 2022 today, i would not be able to stay. gaining traction and "trading up" is way too much of a grind, if it's even possible b...

dougprishpreed • 20 April 2022 at 12:02 PM

It's been almost five months and 56 posts since this thread was started and still no concrete news about this. Bummer, dude ☹️

Hoping that @ian will fix the economy of this site soon. As it stands, you sign up because it's free and then you realize that without spending money, you have virtually...

cryogenics • 20 April 2022 at 3:30 AM

where am i supposed to look? i cant seem to spot anything? i'm even going so far as highlighting everything on the page. is it on the default background? or on the center white 'page' of the site?

quinoafuntime • 19 April 2022 at 3:42 PM

@witika @aedia agreed, it's pretty sad to see. People really are desperate for CC. In my opinion, this site is being consumed by its lust for money. Tangent - I think that the more that people post in the "💸 EC to CC Conversion Terminal" and [url=ht...

lobstertheremin • 19 April 2022 at 1:43 PM

I would also like to know the answer to @dougprishpreed's question, @ian. Please let us know when you have time 😊 And above all, I hope that any kind of change is coming soon, whatever it may be, so that there will be more CC in the player pool. Just look at the trade center and you'll see how much...

lobstertheremin • 19 April 2022 at 1:40 PM

Looking through the trade center this morning has me pretty depressed at how many people are looking for only CC. This site's economy is so transparent about how much it revolves exclusively around spending money ☹️

We really need some way for us to earn CC through the site @Ian, please!

Currently 14, searching every single corner of the site before I start feeding 😋

dougprishpreed • 18 April 2022 at 2:54 PM

Still hoping for an answer 😊

@ian What is the feasibility of these ideas? Would it take years to code and program daily missions/achievments that award cc? If it would be a big pain, maybe it would be better to just do the conversion terminal with a monthly cap. If it wouldn't take too long thou...
