OK, OK, OK, I like the idea, but I have to rant here:
Powder toy is a game of creation, NOT a maintain-the-animals game. If you want that, try a game like Minecraft.
And remember: As quoted very many times, barely anyone here has a half decent computer to run a simulation with plenty of moving objects. Example: Anyone ever played Powder Game? Yes? Good. No? Google it. Try using tons of BIRD. It lags to hell, right? Exactly. Insects would be like that, and if that's bad, try sims like animals!
Second: What would you do with them? Yeah, sure, they're cool, but the "OH COOL LOOK AT THIS A NEW ELEMENT AHHHHH YEAH!" part that comes whenever there's something new to powder toy lasts about 15-30 minutes, unless it's something HUGE like when switches got added. Animals are just going to go through about a week of popularity, with tons of uploads featuring them, and then they'll die out. Literally. They'll be forgotten, considering not much can be done with them.
Last but not least, they'd be devilishly hard to program into the game. These are totally new kinds of entities in the game that have to be treated differently than stickmen because of the suggested variables, like eating, walking, or pooping. Going back to what I said before, a stone-age kind of computer would go down to 10 FPS with just one large animal.
So, I'm happy now, I've made my rant. Please consider what I just said before spamming the programmers and designers of PT with requests for animals. I do, however, like the save, as obviously a lot of work went into the pixel art.
i hope this idea become reality
wow great idea would be great if it was added
there could be domestic animals like dogs and cats. The domestic animals could follow STKM around!
this rocks!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
this should be on the forum
I maen, domestic pets. Also, what would they turn into when eaten? And will they be like LIFE, when they go to one side of the screen they come out the other?
GREAT IDEA!!!! MAKE A KITTY AND A TURTLE!!! plz?
