Hello! I'm new and have no clue what I'm doing!

Saw someone on chicken smoothie playing here, and got curious. I've decided to stay. I am also, very lost and on my way over to the player guide right after this! tips and tricks appreciated!

@londonfogmochi Welcome to Eggcave! If you haven't seen it I recommend taking a look at this unofficial Newbie's Guide, lots of information there!
The Eggcave community is a pretty friendly bunch, feel free to reach out if you have any specific questions.

A couple simple tips:
* You don't have to pick up every egg from the cave, if you already have it or don't want it just leave it. It's also best not to get too many creatures to start with, so you won't get overwhelmed trying to keep them alive (though I did not follow that suggestion myself....)

* Eggcave works best by establishing a feeding routine, because creature's happiness depends on being fed (it's also how many creatures evolve) and the easiest way to get your creatures more feeds is to feed other user's creatures. You feed theirs, they feed yours!
(Note, not all users want their creatures fed, look for 'not feed friendly' or other such wording in their profiles/status.)
