I was Grace Grace, Eve Grace's only living daughter. After being born as a male seven odd times in a row (???) it was my first chance all day to be a mother.
When fourteen came I was ready. We lived close to a desert, so when I went on trips I ran with my heat exactly middle. I did this all my life until at forty, with NO KIDS (not even ones that ran off) I suicided because I didn't want to waste time working on a farm no one would ever see.

I don't know what the heck is happening. Is my server empty? Is Jason prepping for an update?
I really think babies should be spread around equally like jam so that every mom gets at least one.

had a similar thing happen to me yesterday.  i went all the way to 60 because i was in a town but i never had a kid.  other women in town were. idk

Using the lock removal key on a locked chest does nothing.  Haven't tried with a sign but the tips section only says it unlocks doors.  Not sure if this is intended.

What is anti-spider?  Just people who hope spiders never get added?

Carrot God was my vote btw.  Carrot God has blessed us all at one point or another, believer or not.

Eve Troublefield,

This is your daughter Bea (or Bean as you tried to name me).  You died too young but i wanted to let you know that your family name carried on.  I ended up with great-grandchildren before i passed.  The farm you started grew bigger and we were working on pies and smithing in my final days.  Thank you for choosing a good spot, mom!

Never in my two hundred hours of this game have I bursted out laughing like I did when you started copying me. I spent my whole life just entertaining babies by dropping and picking up a skeleton while making jokes about it dancing and egging the skeleton on. Thank you for the brief time we had together until someone finally had enough and stabbed me. I hope you passed on our skills to the future generations just like I did for you.

lol, i saw you get stabbed on someone's stream.  I don't think they found your "art" funny. smile

Really? Do you remember the stream? I'd like to see if I could find the VOD, see if from their perspective.

Unfortunately, I'm not following the person but when they stream again, I'll link you their name.

If so, she didn't really die....  and those baby lives were all just part of the same trip....

To my sister Georgia,

This is peach.  We were born around the same time and you wanted to farm together.  A pie maker asked me to get rabbits so i spent my life doing that.  After I brought my final cart of rabbits backs, the pie maker was gone.  I made some more plates and cooked a cart full of pies.  However, there was no one around.  I finally stumbled upon two recently murdered bodies.  My cousin, John, showed up and he had no idea what happened either.  We were the last two in our village.  I was old and never had any kids (I think due to an update).  I hope you lived a good life and wasn't one of the murder victims.

Peach!
Unfortunately I wasn't one of the victims, I was one of the murderers. This fella showed up in town and stabbed one of the old men, so I ran and grabbed a bow, killing him on the spot. Sadly I had forgotten to eat before this and died of starvation while slowly running towards the farm lol. It would have been awesome to farm together, but so it goes. Hopefully we can some time soon!


Good on you for taking down the murderer!  I hope our paths cross again soon, sister!

My gf just had a few lives in a row where every time she spawned, she would be under the influence of mushrooms.  She died and spawned to a new eve a few times.  Each time she was tripping balls.  Closing the game and restarting it fixed the issue.

I've played over 100 hours and have never been in this kind of drama.  Maybe i'm lucky.  You guys have some fucked up families or something.

Actually, there's irony here, because there is still one backdoor path to infinite soil, but it uses the earthworm after all...  a long, slow, and fragile path...

Wow, it never occurred to me to think like that. Normally I kill worms because they're a nuisance and more trouble than they're worth, but this makes me think of them in a new light. I can see a hypothetical scenario (albeit not practical) where worms could be the messiah of soil. Maybe it's just because I rarely ever get to the point where I'm living off of the 37 mutton pies I have in the store room, but things get boring for me at that point. Still, mind blown.

I thought worms just tilled soil like a hoe.  Do they make new soil somehow?

My intent was never to make a roleplaying game where you get to make up what you want to do in the game and pretend to be a king or whatever.

I'm trying to make a game where a village NEEDS a king for real, gameplay reasons, because leadership is the only way to succeed in the complex, multi-person task of keeping a village going.

You don't care for your baby in this game because you're roleplaying mother.  You care for your baby because it's your only chance at a future after your own death.

If a village was going to war against another before, it was simply because it was an entertaining thing to do.

I want villages to go to war FOR REAL based on true gameplay reasons.  Resource shortages, fertility issues, etc.

Where is trade in the game?  That is what I want.  Real trade, not role-playing trade.  But there is no reason to trade if food is infinite and everything you make lasts forever.

I do have grand plans for this game, but it will take a lot of experimentation to get there.  When we get there, if I can do it, it will be the most rich and complex and meaningful game you have ever played.  But you won't be role playing.  You won't need to.


i really like how you're trying to design the game.  This sounds amazing!

My game has been a little laggy but it's not too bad.  It started after killing a Santan baby last night...

Babies keep saying '6' and '666'.  How do they type numbers?

You asked me to take your life with your blade.  I was hesitant but you insisted.  You wanted to sacrifice yourself to the farm gods.  I honored your wishes and put you to rest.  The townfolk, however, didn't hear your wishes.  They saw me holding the bloody knife, standing over your dead body.  I tried to explain but they didn't give me time.  I was killed by an arrow, only seconds after your granddaughter was born.  Rest in peace mother.  Godspeed (unnamed) baby.

I usually don't reply because i can only type one letter at a time.
