Finally some deer time

Oof, mad few days IRL. Last minute prep for a software release, but it's done now and I even don't think people hate it. Deer time. I instanciate and I'm rudely intersecting two other deer on the little hill. Sorry about that!

And hey it's night time in here.



I don't think I'm awake for more than 30 seconds before I am greeted by other deer. That's lovely.



I'm still in my peculiar pyjamas from last time I was here a few days ago. I kinda miss my proper horns. But hey it sure is nice to turn up after days of absence and immediately be in such lovely company.



Everybody sitting on the log. I must practice and perfect that move myself one of these days lol



then we went to ABSOLUTELY MASSIVE RED DEER WITH SCARY ANTLERS AND NO PICTO. This fella is certainly what we Brits would call "an absolute unit".



Dancing ensues to try to wake the big guy up. Do we wanna wake the big guy up? He's massive!



Here we are lined up by the big fella. An imposing presence and no mistake.



Big lad's asleep though despite our din so we reconvene at the ruins. And someone's given me my ram horns back, thank you! And my pelt. I'm feeling more myself. Ramly. Perhaps I ought to start baaing.



More dancing ensues because we're all daft as brushes, and there's a new skeletal arrival.



We decamp to the twin statues and there is an outbreak of glowing holy purity.

Sneepful Diary

I decided to make a little thread I'll update every time I'm on the forest since the original one I made doesn't really have room for that lol

If you haven't noticed me online: I'm shy and busy, but whenever I am online I take a lot of screenshots,
just a bit ago I found my deer's long lost father... this pictogram is almost *identical* to mine, and I thought it was, but its very slightly different, I took a screenshot, tabbed back in, and they're gone,


Cya dad.....

I'm gonna keep exploring and snooping till I've had my fill.

808 State and distant mooing

Weather and work continue to be unusual, intense bursts of trying to debug something with someone on a different continent interspersed with periods where it's just too nice to be inside so I go outside and take pictures of sheep in the sun <3

Got to be away at the weekend so I wanted to at least poke my nose in the forest first.

Instanciate, is anyone around tonight?



I take a little walk to the fountain. I'm home alone so I can blast out some tunes tonight so I stick on some 808 State.



I'm browsing in another window when amongst the electronic beats I think I hear mooing. I shift my focus to the forest and assume the Listening Stance.



And yes, there is definitely mooing. I can hear various moos back and forth. And so I moo myself, even though I am not a cow. (Yaks are unable to moo, hence their Latin name "bos grunniens", the grunting ox).

Nonetheless, I moo.



And before long, I am not alone.



We all gather and moo vigorously at a bunch of deer who are sleeping below a willow tree. There really is quite a lot of mooing.



In between all the mooing there is of course time for more frolicking, with which I join in enthusiastically. A day without frolicking is a poorer quality day than one with copious frolicking, I believe.



We return to the willow tree and re-moo.

Just found this game

Just found out about this game, in an unlikely place off a twitter post. I'm obsessed, I love everything about this, its absolutely up my alley. I've already harangued my friends about it, and now I'm about to start drawing the deer I see... I will post them here once I figure out how,

I don't see it

Hello! Hope somebody will see it Smiling
I have just created my account and wanted to try out the game, but somehow I don't see the log in window https://imgur.com/a/bVWwmRI
I clicked on every line, nothing's popping up. Is something wrong with the game on my pc or I just look for in the wrong place of the menu?

Been a few days!

Not been in for a while, blame work and weather. Work due to an upcoming deadline, weather for being altogether too nice. I live in a part of the world that is often grey and rainy, and I spent most of the last year sitting in front of a computer while the cold rain fell outside. So when we get a few days of sun, oh my, it feels like a blessing just to sit outside amongst the sheep in the warm sun...

Anyway, thought I'd come back to the forest this evening. Already I have grown to miss the place when I am not there. I instanciated and within a couple of minutes I was not alone, Eris and friends found me on the little hill and invited me to wake.



Greetings were given and after frolicking around on the hill (I swear if I leap off the top of the hill I can walk on the air for a fraction of a second) we found ourselves amongst the flowers.



Deer arranged themselves along the log in a way which made it look like they were sitting down. I must learn how to do that myself sometimes. (I am often impressed by the way in which people use the animations in combination with key inputs to modify the animations in amusing or expressive ways).



Mutual tree interpenetration is always amusing Smiling



My screenshots didn't come out that well today. Normally I like captures where everyone's glyph is clearly distinct, and everyone's looking clearly delineated and handsome.
