Hey everyone! Onyx here! I wanted to give you an update on development. Below is a breakdown of what we're working on. Enjoy!

Overview

We've been hard at work and there is LOTS going on behind the scenes. There’s been a ton of in-world scripting lately mainly on the main codebase as well as other things mentioned later in this post. There’s been a lot of work server side lately. The language / framework I used for the server has seen quite a few updates and new features to utilize. So I’ve updated to the latest and I’ve been implementing new features that will greatly improve the performance for both the API and the website. I’m also in the process of moving servers to a new Host and working on extra layers of security.

Events & Companions

A lot of you have probably noticed that we haven’t participated in any events or released any new Companions lately. While we’ve had a blast participating in events and releasing new Companions this year, we need to focus our time on development of the Breedables and reaching that finish line. We only have one event (Christmas) remaining this year that we’ll announce when we’re able. We’re debating on a Halloween Hunt / Release similar to last year, but we’re not currently sure if we’ll be able to afford the time. We'll keep everyone posted on what we decide.

I do want to say that while we are focused on the Breedable development, we realize there are plenty in the Community that are more interested in the Companions / Collectibles. We will not alienate or abandon that part of the Community. However, right now we have a finish line to reach and we need time to focus on that.

Companion Updater / Dragoos Marketplace

Our team is working on a free Updater Box for Companions / Shoulder Pets. The idea is that you drop your Companions or Shoulder Pets into this box, it will verify the authenticity and then send you updated versions of your items. The reason we're doing this is that the updated Companions / Shoulder Pets will have an Update function (for future updates) and a Market Listing function.

We want the Community to be able to list their transferable Companions / Shoulder Pets on the Dragoos Marketplace prior to launch. We're hoping this will help make it much easier for the Community to find the Companions or Shoulder Pets they're looking for. This will also give the Community a look at the Dragoos Marketplace and how it works prior to the official launch. We'll keep everyone updated as soon as all testing is completed and we're ready to roll this out.

Final Thoughts

We appreciate your patience during development! While we are focused on development, please remember that Dragoos will be much more than just a Breedable and there are a ton of moving parts to work on and maintain. Also please be sure to check out the FAQ section of this site for answers to questions you might have. We'll be updating the FAQ and posting updates here on the website as often as possible. That's it for now!
