Pixel Rooms
Pixel Rooms are little habitats in which your adopted pet lives. Every now and then, something happens to them. You can decorate these habitats with furniture or other accessories. I want to make them a bit different than what I've seen so far, by making them more interactive. This thread is currently in beta mode, meaning it may develop as time passes. If you have any ideas for improvement, please do share.

Box Contents
♦ Pet's Name and Gender
♦ Owner's Name
♦ Unique Cat (Up to two per Habitat)
♦ Custom Habitat
♦ Event Box
♦ Furniture and accessories are extra, but most are free. See the shop for more info.
Events
Events will occur every week until the payment runs out. They can be good or bad. When adopted, a Box has 30% of chance of a good event, and 5% of finding a random mate. This chance can be improved with certain accessories. I could list all possible events, but that would spoil the fun!
Events will never:Kill your pet. Ever.
Be passive, such as "Moth is happy" or harassing, like "Moth wants you to buy her toys!!"
Be handed out by preference. I will not favour anyone. It will all be randomness' work xP
Events can:Injure your pet
Result in finding some interesting items!
Make your pet temporarily disappear from your Box. HINT: Check out other players' Boxes ;D
Be influenced by items, or directly by you.
Example: "There's a crocodile in your habitat!" You could choose to attack it, flee, or try to eat it...
Payment
The basic payment for the box is a common from my wishlist.
Add to that a common for every event you wish to be happening to your pet o3o
An event occurs every week. Read more about events on the 2nd post.
When your quota of events will be over, you will keep your adoptable as it is, and the event box will be containing a generic message such as "Lily thinks she is lucky to have Bobsmom as an owner".
You can come back and ask for more events anytime.
You are dying to give uncommons/rares instead? See below.
Common: 1 event**
Uncommon: 2 events**
Uncommon (WL): 3 events
Popular uncommon (WL): 4 events
Rare: 5 events
Rare (WL): 6 events
** Will be half of worth if they are right from the previous month
Note: If no design comes to your mind, there might be one up for adoption right now! You can check on the next post.

Breeding
A male and a female can breed together to produce 1 to 5 outcomes. This may occur as a random event, but if you wish to choose the mate and time, you can buy a Love Elixir in the shop. The Elixir also increases the chances of having a larger number of kittens. The person who pays the potion will receive the kittens in his box, and may choose up to two of them to keep, if space is adequate. The mate's owner may then choose one kitten for himself, and the rest will go to the Pound**. Cats located in static boxes can still breed, but cannot keep the growing kittens in their box, until they are fully grown that is. If both parents are in static boxes, then Laurel (my cat) will take care of the kittens until they grow up. Unlike adult cats, kittens can die, so keep an eye on them!
Usual Stage Growth

I have no objections to my cat [b]Name of your cat[/b] breeding with [b]Name of their cat[/b].
Want to get a kitten from this litter if possible?: Yes/No
Once both these forms are posted, I can proceed :3
**Kittens in the Pound are free, and can be adopted by anyone. BUT. In the event of the adopter not owning a Box, a small habitat will be provided. BUT. No events nor edits will be available, unless the owner manages to grab a slot for a static or an event box later on. No edits means no size change, and no furniture/objects can be added. Only a second cat, adopted from the Pound, can be added any time. Here is the form for such basic Box. It doesn't have to be posted at the time the cat from the Pound is claimed, it can be afterward.
Temporary Box form- Code: Select all
Owner's name:

Event box color:
Message: What's written in the event box

FAQs
What can be customised in the Pixel Boxes?The pet itself, the habitat, the furniture. Other accessories are usually non-customisable, but this might change.
Are there wolves/bunnies/llamas?If an animal is generally requested, I might pixelise it :3 I have just started with pixel art though, and the cat is already big, so if I would want to respect proportions, a dog would be huge D: Unless it's a small one. I will see about it.
Can you PM me when the slots are available?I give a 12-hour warning prior opening, aswell as a given opening time, as I can't PM everybody who stalks this thread D:
Can you save me a spot on the next opening? -insert good reason here-No.
How do you DO it?I use the pencil and bucket tool. I draw my pixel base with a one-pixel wide pencil. I then make the layout for my box, the birds, the flowers etc. Lastly, I simply color these and draw the other elements from scratch. There's no magic trick or anything xDD
What program do you use?Paint or Photoshop, it depends what I want to do.
Can I make my own?Of course. As long as it's your own lineart, that the box layout is different than mine, and that you call it something different o3o
And please don't take my birdies D: I like my birdies xD
I will write more as questions pop up :3Staff
