Furdiburb – What We’re Working On

Furdiburb - the alien virtual petHello Furdiburbers!
Furdiburb - Lite

Lots of you have asked for the ability to recycle items or sell them for money. We are now working on “The Machine,” which will let you recycle for money. To mix things up, we will enable it to produce several new and interesting items. We’ll have more details about this once we’re done, hopefully in about two weeks.

In the meantime, we have a visual interpretation of our work on Furdiburb. This visualization represents the modifications and additions to the Furdiburb code TeamFurdi performs on a day to day basis. For more information, check out the description of the video. Enjoy!

Furdiburb Lite: Version 0.13beta

Furdiburb - the alien virtual pet
Hi everyone,

We are extremely pleased to announce a new and particularly mysterious update! Here’s a list of new stuff you can expect:

Hatching – We have added a mysterious new way to speed up hatching.

New location – You can travel deeper into Boomy Woods. There is an energetic vibe here – a mysterious technology that surrounds the trees. What are these stairs for? What do these symbols mean??

Furdiburb himself – We have added to his AI and behavior and will continue to improve on this in the future. We won’t mention the specifics as it is meant to be a subtle surprise.

Fireshroom – Many of you asked, we listened! You wanted him to show off some impressive alien power! You can grow fireshrooms in Boomy Woods. Feed them to Furdiburb to see his fun reaction!

Furniture shop – Visit the new furniture shop to see what new items you can purchase to decorate Furdiburb’s hut. More pieces of furniture will be released in the future.

BUT WAIT! Where is the furniture shop?? As usual, part of the fun is figuring it out yourself. Good luck!

For those of you Android(tm) 1.5 users who missed the FAQ explaining the constant restarting or force-closure of the app, you must uninstall and reinstall the app.

Furdiburb - LiteAs always, we thank you for your patience as we work on adding new features to Furdiburb. We have so much planned for him! But we must work on each update….meticulously…. =)
