Unique

Not sure if its been brought up, if it has please forgive me! 😃

I was hoping we could have a small accessory store for our creatures.
Tiny items would give us all a lot more uniqueness in our creatures! (I've seen many of the same species with the same backgrounds)

As the travels are placed BEHIND the creature, the accessories could be bought and placed on TOP of the creature itself. If one can be done, the other surely must be able to be achieved?

I was only thinking to start:

Small tattoos:
swirl, star, heart etc.
Which have different placements:
cheek, butt, side etc.
Which come in different colors:
pink, black, white etc.

And jewelry:
Silver and Gold (or other colors)
Necklaces/Collars
Arm bracelets
Piercings
Ear and Tail adornments.

And possibly a very tiny companion creature that can sit at your creatures feet, on their head, shoulder, back or tail.
Mouse, cricket, butterfly etc etc.

This would encourage more uniqueness of creature images and more spending of EC and CC.
Each month/week special CC only items could appear in the shop.

😃 😃 id love to see this! just small drawings nothing too crazy, there's no need for clothing (or clothing could be CC only specials)
Users could send in drawings...have accessory drawing contests etc.
Would add another element to Eggcave and spur on the economy 😃

I'd love something like this to happen! The only problem is that all the creatures are so different that it would be hard for things like tattoos and jewelry

A similar idea did pop up with travel-like images that go over the creature or stays in the corners

Love this idea 😊
Would be a lot of work for the artist though.
One item would have to be redrawn for each creature for each of its evolutions. Something like this might take a while for them to even get out to us. One item might take months for the artists to get out.

Travels are just easier for this type of creature site.

GREAT ADVICE! 😃

completely agree about the time factor, to solve this the artists could look at where the vast majority of egg caves creatures are located

(usually face is toward us, body positioned in the center of their square,) and items could be simplified down to tattoos: spiral, heart, star etc. and would all land in the same spot (slight low center, left middle or right middle)

the image/item would be slightly transparent/less colored than the creature so it does not disrupt too much of the image.

(3 x 3 pixels lol) companions (mouse, butterfly, squirrel, etc.)
by only doing tattoos and teeny tiny companions there is no worry about a necklace or collar not fitting each individual creatures neck etc. (ie just forget I mentioned jewelry/accessories lol)

Teeny companions could always be in one of the 4 corners so they are out of the way enough

@kittena I love the idea of a swirl or a heart on any of the placements you listed. Especially if pink or white c:
I love the jewelry idea because having a silver collar, arm bracelet, piercing, and ear and tail adornments sounds awesome. Support.

I also love the companion idea.
