[urgent] this site really is actually dying

[bohnette.]

I just want to reiterate that we are listening and doing our best! I was very excited that we were able to release Dark Mode as part of the Summer Event, as I know that's something people have been asking for for ages. I have also directly suggested merch and that is something a lot of the moderators would love to see in the future too!

I've never bought C$ before but I would 1000% buy IRL plushies if CS ever made some!!!!

I would do ANYTHING for the sunback plushie they had back in like 2013

agreeeed

Gonna jump in for a second since I'm a (semi?) old user.

From what I've seen compared to 2015, I do agree. There's not as many users at all, besides the spike for December. I will say though, Chicken Smoothie is doing much much better than other games! I think browser games like this are just dying in general sadly. Games I used to play as a kid are completely dead now. I've noticed most players on CS and similar games such as Flight Rising, Pokeheroes, Pokefarm Q, and Furvilla are adults. This goes for old flash games such as Animal Jam, the userbase is entirely adults now because there's just no new players. They don't seem to stick around, my guess is the appeal just isn't modern, not speaking for CS but like the entire format of browser games. Honestly IMO advertising could really help bring in newbies, especially for the summer event. I've been thinking about a small passion project full of old users, advertising several browser games to keep the websites alive. If game sites could collab, to combine their users just to keep up the numbers and also advertise, that would be great. That's just my neodivergancy thinking though.

Couldn't have said it better myself!! Kids nowadays have access to much bigger games, consoles etc. There's a lot more new concepts in terms of collection games. No one really uses Internet games anymore only console and phone apps.

I think the idea of making CS an app is a really good idea! The mobile version of the game works so well but having it advertised on the play store and apple store would be a good idea to bring people in, it feels more modern too. The game itself doesn't feel old or outdated, I think it could use upgrades in terms of how little it's changed over the years. But kids would love to play this game if they knew it was out there.!

And in terms of new players I agree, a lot of them start then give up. Continuous players are ones that grew up with CS. We need more advertising !♡

I still have in my possession the full three stickers sheets + larger skeleton dog sticker from the CS Mall way back when.

giveaway page here

popping in to say that i had cs stickers and buttons!! they had a giveaway back in 2014 and i actually won a 6 pack of buttons and 3 sticker pages, i hope they're somewhere in my moms garage haha,,,,, if not then they're lost to time :,) so i do hope they make a comeback <33

Oh my lord, that's amazing !!!! Imagine actually winning a giveaway too I bet that was so cool 😭

I’m rather curious; is there a suggestion thread for CS to sell Merch? From the sound of it, there are many individuals who seem interested in purchasing CS merchandise ^^

As far as I know there's no thread, but I just wanted to let you know that we're aware of the demand and (without making ANY promises whatsoever) would also like to make it happen
