Site Update
Hey all, Alana here!
Have you ever wanted to create unholy pixel abominations? Wanted to heck up some perfectly nice customs?
Ever wanted to attach a head to a leg?
A leg to a head?
Maybe three heads!
Thirteen heads?!
... Do you also like to colour?
Consider applying to the Radioactive Breeding Team! The application can be found HERE. I'm currently looking for at least one new artist who's ready to mutate some mutants and colour some metals. Join me, and together we will mutate the world! (And also colour stuff sometimes.)

Fauna Frenzy v2.0.3
Site Update
Escaped from Kaiyo's basement to bring everyone some more updates for Fauna Frenzy.
Treacherous Triangle - Bridge
A new realm has been added, bringing Ay's Bridge into the Frenzy. The Bridge starts off easy, but as you further progress expect the difficulty to ramp up. Those who beat the levels in Bitter Barrens won't see much challenge from the bridge until the later levels, but with more stars to collect, I'm sure you'll all be kept busy (and frustrated) trying to get them all!
Regardless of your fauna's levels, The Bridge is the perfect stage to get some practice in with the game mechanics before we release more difficult levels.
Rune Components
Despite our warnings not to enter the Frenzy until we learn more about it, Querel has been found tinkering with the runes and made an interesting discovery: The runes can be made to have other uses! Querel won't tell me what those uses are yet, but he has created a device to auto harvest runes after a battle. I went ahead and installed the device as to his specification, but I'm still not entirely sure how exactly it works or where the runes go once harvested.
Just know that any runes left over after a battle will be added to your Frenzy inventory. I'll continue to pester Querel and as soon as I get answers, I'll be sure to share it with everyone.
Misc
While the game itself has received a few updates, most of work was put into creating tools that staff can use to create realms and levels with ease. We're hoping with these tools we better balance the game. With these tools though, we need data. Whenever you play any level in Fauna Frenzy, started logging the results of those battles so that we can figure out what levels players are having problems with and help us pin point what we can do to make the level balance if deemed not balanced.
What does this mean for you? As you play levels, you'll help us figure out if things are going the way we want or not. With each future update, we'll use that information to balance existing levels and determine how to set up new levels for other realms.
About Future Updates
We were planning to release fusioning next month, but will be delaying that until later this year. Because of the site's hibernation status, we must focus our time on getting a few other things done before we are able to pump more content (we have two more realms planned each with three stages, a store for purchasing XP tokens and components, and an arena mode). Once I catch up with my chores, I'll be sure to add an explosion of content to this, but until then I ask everyone be patience. I already juggle so much that I'm not making much progress on anything, so now I want to take a break and focus on the recode.
And on cue, I can hear Kaiyo's footsteps. Back to the basement for me :(
That's all for now. I hope everyone enjoy this update, and expect more content to be added around mid-November.
Oh, and before I forget, v2.0.3 changelog:
Added
- Rune components for rune fusion system.
- Wave progress indicator.
- Earn XP and BP for defeating enemies regardless of victory or not (player XP only).
- Battle stats logged. Will help with balancing current and future levels.
- New realm: Treacherous Triangle
Changed
- Grid coords system for level select grid.
- Bitter Barrens level positions.
- Drag UIX for level select.
- Slightly darken the rune field's background
- Updated Fauna Frenzy's knowledge base article (still a WIP)
Fixed
- Bug where level icons would be created twice.
Removed
- SP progress for stages. There was problems giving out the SP, so I want to have a look at it a bit more before readding it

Oh gosh I hope the water isn't cold....POOL PARTY!
Site Update
It's almost time for the Prediction Pool Party!
For those of you who weren't here, and those of you who were, I'll be listing out all the rules and bonuses, as well as setting up the threads that have everything compiled for easy reference!
ALL BREEDINGS FOR POOL PARTY PERKS MUST BE SUBMITTED BY AUGUST 14! Breedings submitted after August 14 WILL NOT be able to use any of these perks!
This event will run from August 14, 2021 until October 20, 2021! that gives you a little over 2 months to work and design as many predictions as you possibly can! The point of this is to try to help ease up some of the more backed up queues, so those specific queues will also receive the most bonuses.
- The Prediction Caps are being temporarily removed for all coins during this time!
- Any artist that makes a prediction can enter themselves into a raffle by posting in the Artist Raffle (coming soon!)
- All edit percentages are "loose" for this event only, so we will not get up in your business if you submit a 50% breeding and it is 57%. If you have a 50% breeding and we can't tell what species it is, then we might have a problem.
- Remember! Predictions can be done for USD however if they are not Platinum Breeding Coin or Sketch Breeding Coin predictions they must go through the Commission Panel!
Rules
All predictions must have the PSD attached in order to qualify for this event.
Breeding rules still apply! If you bought a breeding slot, for only one baby, please ensure that you have the owners permission before making extra baby predictions! If someone violates this they may have their baby deleted without refund.
Please included "Prediction Pool Party" in your breeding notes, or predictions and breedings will be processed as normal!
All artists must have a forum for their sales thread in our new Prediction Pool Party Subforum. The only exception is if you are just doing your own predictions.

Pet Submissions HA Submissions Item Submissions
The past week has been busy for Fauna Frenzy. After going through the logs and listening to feedback from everyone, we've made quite a few changes to Fauna Frenzy.
We heard you all loud and clear! While we do not plan on removing energy from the game, we understand that a lot of us want longer play sessions. So to make the energy more bearable, we've made the following changes:
β’ Base energy has been increased from three to five
β’ Energy restore time has been decreased from one point every 90 minutes to one point every 30 minutes
β’ When unlocking a new star in a level, all fauna that was used in that battle will have the energy used return to them
β’ Each player level up will fully restore all fauna energy in the player's roster
We are still trying to come up with a solution to adding a timer to the faunas to indicate when their next energy point will be available, so please bear with us a little longer.
Silver Paws
For every five level ups (player level, not fauna), you will earn one SP! Any players that has already hit this interval has had SP credited to their account.
In addition, when you unlock all the stars in a stage, you will also earn one SP as well. This will give everyone a reason to go back and play earlier realms later in the game
Six challenges added
Already made your way through the Bitter Barrens? Why not try you hand at the six challenge levels recently added to complete your Bitter Barrens adventure?
Below you can read over most of the changes that were made from v2.0.1 to v2.0.2
v2.0.2 Changelog
Added
- Scroll input to fauna roster and equip team scenes
- SP reward for levelling up (every five levels)
- SP reward for 100% a stage with progress tracker
- Player level up reward animation
- Player level up restore all fauna's energy
- Earning a new star on a level will restore one energy back to each fauna used
- Six challenges levels to Bitter Barrens
- Enemy level scaling based on fauna's team power (used only in challenge levels and special realms)
- How to play button that links to Knowledge Base article
Removed
- Enemies' Power panel in level details. Will restore once proper tweaks have been made
Changed
- Path distance on level select scene
- Fauna energy timer reduced from 90 minutes to 30 minutes per energy point
- Fauna start energy increased from three to five
- Sped up various animation during the play phase
- Decreased attack for all bosses except 1-25
- Increase attack for boss 1-25 (Aketch Golem) (attack was grossly low)
- Target indicator transparency during match and battle results
- Client process of ending player's turn. Possible fix for some of the de-sync issues reported
- Server side field replenishing method to a smart random method
Fixed
- Shuffling no longer changes the position of powered runes
- Issue when levelling up fauna not always giving player XP
- Bitter Barren's 1-1 wave one's enemy (countdown should start at three, not one)
- Level up notification not appearing during active session
- Boss 1-15 (Rowmin Golem) was using wrong special attack
- Boss 1-20 (Greta Golem) was using wrong special attack
- Hint animation overlapping pause menu
All changed bosses will be observed and balanced if needed. We are aware of a few additional bugs and improvement requests made for the game. We're hard at work trying to find solutions for them and will keep you updated on any other changes made.
