I LOVE the maker so, so much, you put an amazing amount of customization & detail into this & it's only in the early alpha stage?? I can't wait for it to be nearing completion
I see very unique designs every time you share an update on it, how do you come up such vast designs for dragons? they amaze me every time I look at them all I try to make varying noodles only to end up with same face syndrome for dragons (they end up looking like recolors)
Thank youu! ^^
For the update preview dragons, I always try to make them show as many of the new features as possible. If an update has many fin-like parts, I might try to make an aquatic dragon with those and other existing features, using characters, real aquatic animals, or color palettes I like as inspiration.
This last update for instance, it was Halloween themed, so I made a skeleton dragon with the boney tattered wings and jagged triangle plates. I also wanted to integrate the new tail fins, so I turned them into ghastly fish spines to fit the theme, as well as the glowing gills to make it a sort of aquatic skeleton dragon.
#ask#not dev#//thank you again for the ask!#//only tips I can think for design is using real animal inspos (there's plenty of cool weird ones) and color palettes you find you like

I love your creator, its a lot of fun to use! I will ask though - Is it normal for the colours to change after exporting to code (and loading it)?
Thank you and happy you're having fun with it!
That is definitely not meant to happen and is likely a bug, can you send the dragon's code and the image of the intended design in DMs?

Back with some visual tests to improve the dragon's glows
#dragon creator#dragon game dev#//considering changing the color space from linear to gamma too#//so gradients can have as much influence on darker and lighter parts#//being away for a bit has helped me get a better perspective on where to take the game from here#//menu update is still coming. just making smaller updates first with requested parts and other QoL features too as promised#wip concepts#dragons

Hey everyone, sorry for the absence and radio silence. Updating quick, due to college I've been unable to progress on the next update these last months, there's no determined date for resuming either, but it should hopefully be in the coming month.
While the menu icons update still has ways to go, I'll try bringing minor updates with smaller yet more requested parts in the meantime.
Thank you everyone for your patience, and keep on creating!
#not dev#//being some time away from the game has also brought a new perspective and new ideas to bring to it#//hoping to put them into motion once I'm free too

Heyooo! Just ran into the game through a friend and it's absolutely wonderful. only got a small critique. why aren't any of the variant body parts/patterns named?
Hiya! And thanks, glad you enjoyed it!
About the parts, the current system is still a placeholder for now. The nameless arrows are temporary, until it could be replaced by proper icon selections for each of the parts, which should get tackled for the next big update.
#ask#//the final goal was for the UI to require as least text as possible#//but if anything needs additional labeling I'll keep in mind

Is there/will there ever be a way for me to play this on my macbook?
Sorry if this has been asked before 😅
No worries, and sorry for the oversight. The game is still in very early stages and only took into consideration a browser/windows version for now. I'll keep in mind both Android and Mac versions for the future.

Heads up, released a quick patch for a bug that was crashing the game in browser if you clicked on the arm link icons. Should be all fixed now!
New small yet important update! Adding the wing-standing wyverns and fixing the ears among other features!

#dragon creator#dragon game dev#game development#dragons#//the irony is not lost on me updating on this day. Today we celebrate instead giving dragons LIFE.#//updates may be slower now due to college though.#//while the next big update may be the icons one. I'll fill the gaps with other minor features updates too.#//notifs have been flooded all day y'all are very cool

As you may have guessed this was an April Fools update.
The game is now returned to how it was before, but it won't be long for the next real update, which has been getting worked on in the meantime too, so stay tuned!
New update!
Now added compatibility for bats
¡ʎoɾuƎ
#dragon creator#dragon game dev#april fools 2024#//won't be as big as the previous ones. but slowly adding small yet important features to it.#//as far as I checked it doesn't need a code version change. So all your saved dragons should be compatible both backwards and forwards.
