My dear friends,

It was great to spend time with all of you, and to help notable deer for the past several weeks. Unfortunately, I have to be gone for 6 weeks for a full-time summer class.
Right now, I have to concentrate on these important obligations. So, I have to be away for a while.

My full-time session ends on July 31st. That is the day when I graduate from my university, by earning a Batchelor's degree.

This doesn't mean that I will be leaving this game, I promise that I will come back to see any further happenings in this Forest. You know me as the old deer, Jeweleye, and with his brother, Octavius. I will probably return on the first day of August.

Knowing that some of you have evolved by helping many deer friends to this community, I award those deer with the imaginable gold stars.

I am going to miss all of you. I wish all of you to have a great rest of your wonderful day, and I hope to see all of you again real soon, when I come back.

God bless, and I'll see you soon in the Forest! ^^

[center]I will still be maintaining my toyhouse and participating in artfight this year and plan to attack many of you... .

(I'm inexperienced in CSS & this bio will be a constant WIP, I plan to make this look much better eventually! Thank you for your patience!)

Jurupari, endless hunger.

Aivilo and I have figured out a way to change your avatar or display name via the code in your signature. Special thanks to Klownda and Atlas for the help with shortening the code!

AVATARS

How does it work?

• Choose a unique combination of letters to create your "Codeword." 3 characters is recommended for length and simplicity, but you can use any alphanumeric combination. In the code examples below, we will be using "CDW."


• You can find a list of available codes on this Google Sheet.
  To claim a code, use this Google Form. Once a code is claimed it will be marked off on the list as unavailable. This spreadsheet will be minimally maintained. If you claim a code please keep it.


• We recommend imgbb and catbox.moe for image hosting, as both of these sites have very short image links.


• These avatars will only show up on your comments. Nowhere else. You can make them show up on your main thread posts if you copy-paste the signature code into the body of your thread.


• Signatures can only be up to 255 characters in length. This means any of these codes will limit what else you can put in your signature! We did our best to make it so you can at least include an image and a bit of text with either of these codes. However, you cannot have an avatar and a display name changer at the same time. Together, the codes are too long.
  _{(But you can include one of the codes in your signature, and the other one in the body of the comment/thread.}

im on linux mint and have everything installed in the right directories, and i have all the right drivers listed in the faq, but no matter how many things i try, the game just will not connect to the servers nor even give me a login box. i really want to enjoy the game with others but this issue has just left me defeated. i know its an old game, but connecting to servers shouldnt be this difficult, Right?

I first came across this game in 2012 and somehow remembered it again in 2026. Maybe it's nostalgia, or maybe it's just that feeling of wishing we could go back to the good old days, you know? I was delighted to find out that the game is still alive and somehow still being maintained.

I was wondering if anyone else is experiencing the same network issues and has found ways to adapt. According to the settings, there are usually 20–40 players connected, but as soon as my deer wakes up in the forest, I only see sleeping, sitting, or standing deer that show no signs of activity. Is this just an issue on my end, or do you have to deal with it too?

I also noticed that some deer seem to have the same name as mine. It's pretty confusing. Does this happen to everyone?

Also, what's the best time to log in if I want to see more active deer? Please don't forget to include your time zone.

And finally, who wants to be my deer buddy? Maybe we could arrange a specific time to meet up, test the game's features, and do some magic together.

So, I haven't been able to connect properly once again (im trying all the tricks and im sure itll work eventually, I won't have a huge panic like I did last time), so instead of chilling with yall in the forest, I want to know how pride month/june has been going for yall!

I'm thinking of mayhaps making some pride art of my deer soonish, and possibly making another deer.. probably based off an existing oc of mine, but as a deer. Not too sure yet so I won't share details in case I change my mind

The lack of ability to play is draining my interest from this game/community though, but im trying not to lose it entirely

Oh and Deltarune Chapter 5 is coming soon this month!! which is awesome!!!! along with other cool games it seems
