    To Die or Not To Die?

    One thing to keep in mind is if pets don't die you'll have a HUGE number of pets you have to deal with and keep records for. Generally games have pets and items expire for space/database optimization reasons. I've seen games work without the pets dying but that is just something you should...

    Number of animals players can have/space issues?

    It sounds like your data issues are disk space related and not necessarily db related. If your site is generating a huge number of errors in your apache error logs that is often why you run out of disk space so quickly and why it happens when the rabbits are being generated means you're probably...

    Multiple Accounts? Allowed/Disallowed?

    I use a bot that checks for the number of accounts created in a day. I also had people using auto-refreshing scripts to trigger random events happening more frequently. My bot auto bans all accounts doing either of those things. Sad that we still have so many people cheating! I would love to...

    Number of animals players can have/space issues?

    I do something on my site called a license. It limits how many pets you can have at a time and each bigger license costs more to buy and some are only available as upgrades. In your case, I would keep a string of the pets genetics so you only have to calculate them when they breed since you...

    I last talked to him on the 10th and he was having some health and personal issues. I haven't heard from him since then. I hope he's okay!

    How active is your community

    At my games peak I was getting several million hits a day. For a while I was on the top 50k websites on the internet. I had about 200 active players online at a time. Sadly my games are not that active anymore because I've been really busy with life and my full time job and running my farm. At...

    Customizable Human Avatars Versus Character Selection

    Yes a lot of older flash games on FB do things like this. I don't remember one specifically just that I've seen it before. You can see an older version of my 2D character based game with a character movement demo here: http://whoa-horsie.com/  Use the up/down arrows to control speed and...

    Customizable Human Avatars Versus Character Selection

    I have seen character customizations with thin/fat, child/adult and short/tall options. However for each of those options you add you have to add the customizable thing with it. That means your one red shirt drawing turns into 6 different versions, one for each character option.  If you want to...

    Customizable Human Avatars Versus Character Selection

    You could always do a mix of the two. Let them customize a flat image of a character and then have them pick one that they use to walk around with. Also, the more you limit the directions of the character the less work you'll have. I did diagonal directions (because my game doesn't really work...

    Help with Breeding Roller

    So you have to apply the logic of the pungent square to javascript code. Take variables with the genes of both parents, split the genes into an array of their combinations, then generate a random number from 0 to length of the array-1 and select that index as the gene for your puppy.

    Help with Breeding Roller

    Lol, breeding and genetics is not a simple thing! It's actually one of the harder things to code, especially when you get into highly realistic genetics. The basic idea is that you take each gene and you make a punnet square for the cross of each parent, compute all the possible outcomes from...

    Customizable Human Avatars Versus Character Selection

    So as someone who has made animated 2D characters that walk around the screen, character selection is a much cheaper option. Having customizable characters that can be animated is extremely graphic intensive and costly to have commissioned unless you're planning to do all the work yourself and...

    GDPR Compliance

    Also, I will tell you from personal experience, if you are not a company or have a physical location in the EU they cannot hold you to following the GDPR compliance. If you are a US company you must comply with US laws but you do not have to comply with any other countries laws. If someone from...

    GDPR Compliance

    Check the fine print, a lot of places will let you become "compliant" which means you follow certain rules so you don't have to ask for parental permission and verification. It means you jump through more hoops about what data you keep and you have to run background checks on employees that have...
