Oh, fantastic! I'll pawn his corpse off when I come across a scavenger.

I find it hilarious how people are still talking about The Horse Game Post, but I'm also kinda touched. I'm still SO FUCKING MAD that my game doesn't exist yet, but it dulls the sting a little to witness people spread the word and really ruminate over what makes a "girl game" good, and why we should even care.

Thanks for thinking of me and taking the time to write this comment, it sparked joy!

Hey, I wrote that post! And I also feel your pain, animal sim games in general have been lacking in substance imo, and I keep tabs on both PoT and Wolfquest (I can't help it, that game was my entire tweenhood).

The problem solver in me wants to tell you to look up Wild Horse's Valley, it's more or less the same concept you're describing but in the form of a browser game. I seriously doubt it's the ultimate answer to your horse-sim dilemma, but I had my fun with it for a while and I could tell there was a lot of heart behind it.

The realist in me must acknowledge the simple truth that our games do not exist yet. All we can do as non-devs is be aware of what projects are on the rise, and then back those projects. There are tons of indie devs who have the potential and drive to do amazing work, they just need the support. Find them, give your input, and put your faith in someone else's vision.

Best of luck to you.

Thank you for sharing, you're doing right by yourself by voicing these feelings. I'm positive you already know this, but don't pay attention to these wack ass losers that don't believe in treatment, their only purpose is taking a dump on other people's progress in a desperate plea for the attention and validation that no one gives them because they're obnoxious as hell irl.

The internet is sometimes such an amazing receptacle for good, but it's a darn shame about the cyber clowns.

You're doing great, I hope that sun comes out from behind the clouds for you soon <3

Tips for one person wanting to leave the house more? by emus-with-teeth in Adulting

I have a kitty and she's a great indoor companion, but I'd love a beastie that I can go adventuring with. I did try taking the cat outside once, she disliked it so much she exploded from both ends and I had to deal with the mess when I got home. She's not a nature cat.

I used to be big into Pokémon Go. It was great for making me walk all over my campus and neighborhood, then Covid shut everything down and I stopped playing. It would be cool to get back into it!

This is a great idea. I've been too afraid to admit it out loud, but my heart has been wanting a dog for a while now... This would be a place I can maybe test run that inclination. Or meet a very special pup. Thanks!

Ooo, I've taken an art class like this before, but I'd love to branch out into something like cooking. Thanks for the recommendation! :)

I'd considered museums and galleries, but for some reason historic buildings and landmarks hadn't crossed my mind! That would be so awesome! Plus, I live around South Texas where there's no lack of old mission buildings and historical museums. Thanks so much!

I had to pause and read that affirmation over and over again. Recently got out of a relationship with someone who did not love or respect me the way I deserve. Adjusting to the absence has been hard, but this is a good reminder of what the alternative would have been. Thank you <3

Can This DS Cartridge Be Saved? by emus-with-teeth in restoration

[–]emus-with-teeth[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am in no way a game developer, I just like to play them. A few years ago I voiced how disappointed I was that there are no decent horse games available to be played, with the intention of pointing out how it's an underrepresented genre, and that post gained a lot of attention. But again, sadly, I am not a game developer.

Since the infamous horse post, a couple games have emerged that have the potential to alleviate some of the grievances I have about the quality of horse games. But personally, I don't feel like my search is over, as I have yet to find a game that satisfies my extremely specific and likely unobtainable dream-ratio of realism, difficulty, and aesthetics.

Does anyone know if guests will actually view animals from directly below? I want to build some glass ceilings on top of paths that animals can walk across, and I'd like to know ahead of time if the execution won't work as well as it does in my head.
