O_Samuel893 asked: Hello Golden!! I wanted to know if you plan to improve the flight system in the future, such as adding an option where the player chooses whether to continue gliding with a bird that has gliding animations Or the flapping of wings in flight, Or even a new way for the player to fly.
- Absolutely! I am so glad you asked this. Flying is an important part of the game since itās a game about birds. A lot of movement systems were improved this year. It started with adding climbing, and now that swimming has finally finished, I am moving on to the final movement system upgrade that I have planned. There are major plans to improve flying based on a lot of feedback from the years, and itās currently being developed! Since itās in active development, I wonāt spoil too much, but itās set to release in January of 2027!

americandino702 asked: A pretty goofy thing to ask, but: Will there be another customization update?
- Customization was recently massively upgraded at the beginning of this year, so while I donāt have any plans to add new things to customization anytime soon, I still have some ideas for some new ways to customize! Itās not in any active development and just in the brainstorming phase, but I think the next time customization is updated (maybe in another few years), this new feature could help a lot of players with having more precise designs for their characters.
-
Andoriov asked: Will legacy mode have more versions? (The current one only has the very first version)
- I have thought about adding more past versions of Feather Family to Feather Family Classic, but the reason why there havenāt been more is solely because of technical issues. The engine has massively changed since the years those versions were made, and fortunately Feather Family Classic from 2018 was a small enough game that I was able to upgrade all of the legacy code in an old version file within a few weeks. Versions from 2020+ will be much more difficult to add because they have DataStore requests (save files with feathers and unlockables) and use more Marketplace features (the mythical bird passes). Asset privacy also causes an issue with old assets like audio and meshes, and could make them fail to load because they are uploaded on my old account, or from accounts that have privated their assets.

milvonaja564 asked: Will we ever get the feature to change specific size stats for our character, like wingspan, tail length (or even each individual tail feather), and beak size and other stats like call loudness, pitch, etc?
- This is a very interesting concept that could be cool! Unfortunately since the models in the game are separate meshes and not a skinned rig, changing the individual sizes of the parts will cause them to not connect or animate correctly to the other meshes, so there arenāt any plans to be able to adjust sizes of specific parts of the body. Right now, adjusting the pitch of the call is possible by changing the overall size of the bird, but I could consider being able to manually adjust the callās pitch without it being connected to size!
-
jhgfyu_idontmeanIt asked: Short and simple ; Will we ever be able to rent gamepass birds
- Roblox is going to be introducing a system where gamepasses will have a one-session free trial before buying them, so when this releases, I will enable it for the game passes so people can test it before they buy it!
-
clashroyal_2010 asked: Will the climbing feature have more improvement in the future updates?
- Yes! Right now the climbing is a little limited. In the future I want climbing to be able to go sideways and even upside down without the bird losing their grip. Itās not being worked on yet, but Iām going to try to have that out by the end of 2027.
-
Amina_5H09 asked: Heyy Golden, will u add more and special colors at the Name where u can enter the birds name?
- Iāve been planning to add small VIB customizations to roleplay name colors! Itās going to be in active development soon!
-
FreeNugget4592 asked: Will you add like a login feature at the starting menu of the game? Like if you are in an alternate Roblox account and if you type in your main or your any accountās password and username (or anything like that), it will log you in to your that accountās progress. This feature might sound a bit odd but it may be helpful in certain situations.
- This is an interesting suggestion I havenāt thought of before. Something like this would probably not be doable because Roblox doesnāt have a feature that allows developers to detect alt accounts of players, and typing your password into Roblox games is extremely risky, so I worry that players might use a feature like this to steal save files from other players.
-
hateROBLOXbutAMBORED asked: do you plan on adding another way to get feathers? Like randomly being able to find some on the ground
- Other ways to get feathers is something Iāve debated with myself for a long time ever since feathers were first added to the game. When feathers first came out, I almost added feather objects to find and collect around the map (there were even models for them in the gameās storage), and in the end, I ended up not adding that because I didnāt want it to become a game about collecting items on a map. On one hand, I want to keep the game objective-less so roleplaying is the core gameplay, without feeling like you need to be doing tasks or getting rewards to maximize the amount of feathers you can get. On the other hand, there are so many more birds to unlock than before and itās becoming more and more difficult for new players to unlock all of the birds. I think a good compromise is to increase the amount of feathers you earn while playing normally, so the game can stay the same as itās been, and unlocking all of the birds can be easier. Iād love to hear playersā opinions on this too!
-
diduhtina121212 asked: Will there be any changes towards communication? (names, descriptions, naming flocks, servers, etc.)
- There had to be a lot of changes made to comply with the new rules on Roblox back in January 2025, but right now no more changes are planned for the visibility of names, descriptions, flocks, servers, and other player-generated text. I am pretty much in the dark when it comes to new restrictions Roblox adds to general communication between players, so things might change if Roblox announces something new, but Iām not sure. For right now, there wonāt be anything else removed or changed since the game is complying with all of the new restrictions so far. Roblox recently announced that the ability to edit āQuick Wordsā will be released soon. They are currently very restrictive on adding roleplay-related phrases, but I will be looking into what kinds of words I can add so players who are non-verified or players in different age groups can use better quick words that are more relevant to roleplay.
-
ploptrump101 asked: will there be anything relating to more feathered dinosaurs and dinosaurs proven to have feathering? e.g. halzskaraptor, zhenyuanlong or something like yi qi
- There are a lot of non-avian dinosaurs in the Eumaniraptora clade that I am considering! Dinosaurs like halzskaraptor are in the Unenlagiidae family, which are even proposed to be part of Avialae, so itās definitely a possibility! I am 50/50 with Yi-qi since most studies place it just outside of Eumaniraptora, but it would be a cool one to add because of its unique wing structure.
-
mollythebudgie2 asked: hey golden!I love your game so much! Itās been 3 years since I played this game,im a huge bird lover and going to be an ornithologist!I got so excited about the new gamepass,can you give me hints?and also I predict that itās a stimphalian bird or a thunderbird!bye and I hope you answer this question!
- Thanks so much for being such a big fan! It means so much to me that the game helped you decide to have a career in ornithology! The hints for the next game pass bird will be added in the update on October 2nd, so try talking to some NPCs and see what they say! The mythical bird will be a popular bird-like creature from real mythology, and the design is very loosely based on mythology from an ancient civilization with some artistic interpretations added. Even though itās still based primarily on a bird, itās a little different from the other mythicals that have been added because the design is a little different from how it is described in traditional mythology, so I really hope people like it!
-
WareWaKitsune asked: Do you plan to separate the bird pick name (Dromaeosaur) from actual skin name (Velociraptor etc), so when two people play as deinonychus and velociraptor, they wonāt be both called āDromaeosaurā?
- Iām not planning to separate the Velociraptor and the Deinonychus from the selection screen, but Iāve considered adding the skin name to playersā species wherever itās displayed so itās easier to differentiate between which skin they are using for a particular bird. Iāll plan on adding this to the game soon so itās easier to see exactly what kind of bird a player is using! For example, it would say āDromaeosaur (Velociraptor)ā instead of just āDromaeosaurā.
-
dragonetstella asked: could there be more prey in map such as caterpillars or moths that come out at night similar to the bats?
- Yes! I love the prey that come out at certain times of the day or during certain weather events. It makes the world feel so real. Iāll definitely be adding more prey that only appear at daytime and nighttime!
-
Localfranckocean2 asked: Will more save slots be added for the designs & pallets? Because I really like making skins, but I donāt like having to keep deleting other skins to make more. Thank u for reading thisss 
- There was recently a major expansion to increase the total color save files from 16 to 48 because of Robloxās recent Datastore storage increase, so right now another addition is not planned. However, if the Datastore can handle another increase, I could consider adding more in the future!
-
foxythepiratefoxlols asked: Would it be possible to add extended descriptions in a separate action/page, like when you click to pick up the person or go to the leaderboard?
- Yes absolutely! There are plans to extend character descriptions with more space that people can read when they click on your character. Itās coming soon!
-
himiko2016 asked: Will you add more uses for feathers, such as new textures, new markings, etc. it would give players that already have max feathers more uses!
- Iāve thought about giving feathers more uses! It would be really cool if a lot more textures and markings were added that could be unlocked with feathers, or even if some effect particles could be unlocked with feathers. Nothing like this is planned and just up to speculation, but it would be cool for people who have max feathers!
-
bajadasaurus234 asked: Will SOF have a definitive āendingā? I assume that there has to be one, since you can only add so many extinct avians before it starts getting repetitive, but how will you do it?
- In the event where there arenāt any new fresh ideas for extinct birds that are interesting and distinct from other birds that have already been added, then maybe the time between each Summer of Fossils event will increase. However, this probably wonāt happen for a long time because I have a long list of potential candidates for future SoFs!
-
Oriole037 asked: Will other birds have a fledgling stage like the griffin? Similarly, will the AI offspring have fledgling stages?
- Since adding a fledgeling stage on all 100+ birds would be a huge project with new rigs and 7-9 animations each, unfortunately I have no plans to add fledgeling stages. However, future gamepass birds have the chance to have fledgeling stages!
-
gdehvnu asked: Will adult velociraptor get climbing? (Makes it more realistic) And will pelagornis get able to stay and swim underwater with a different underwater swim animation (different from surface swim) like all other aquatic birds?
- (I know this is two questions, but I have the same answer for both.) Since I couldnāt find studies that confirmed that fully-grown Velociraptors could do sustained climbing with their forearms as they were mainly ground-dwelling, or that Pelagornis could swim underwater, there are no plans to add those abilities. However, if there is a study that confirms these behaviors, I will happily change these! I try to make the extinct birds realistic with the most accurate speculative behaviors and sounds.
-
niyah123375 asked: idk how to say it but like if realistically a bird lays five eggs make the offspring in the game have five slots for five eggs if I bird realistically lays two eggs make the slots have only two eggs
- I actually thought about this when the offspring system was being developed! Some birds like albatrosses only lay one egg per clutch, while birds like chickens often have clutches of 8-12. In the end, I decided to make it a universal 3 offspring per bird, because having too many offspring could cause heavy lag issues (especially if several people were chickens at the same time), and having only one offspring might make it difficult to do family or adoption roleplays.
-
Gamingfun987 asked: Will you still add new birds to bird families you have already added to the game? Ex. Like adding umbrellabird to cotingas even after the update has passed?
- Absolutely! A lot more species skins are planned to be added to birds that are already in the game. There are definitely plans to add more cotingas in the future!
-
alaxandra_alex asked: Are you planning to add nests hanging off of trees, and possibly enterable ones?
- I actually did think about adding this when the new nest types were added, specifically for the āCavityā nest type, since that nest is modeled after pendant nests that some species of birds make. Right now there are no plans to be able to make it hang from above, but I do really like the concept and maybe it could come to the game eventually!
-
siamker asked: Hello, Golden. Iām gonna ask, do you feel like adding a spin-off version of the game? Like a Survival one: Different maps, Realism, ETC.
- I actually did think about this concept and even wrote down a few ideas once. However, I donāt have any plans to work on a new project related to Feather Family, and I am just going to continue working on the current game.
-
tonosigimal10u asked: will are adding new weather like a new season example: winter,all place in game will be get covered by snow and then fall season will be covered by dry season also and then dry season that make some tree will disappear and the water get very low
- Seasons are an idea Iāve had for a while. I did play around with the concept of the entire map changing with the real-life time of year, like in September - November the leaves would turn brown, and in December - February it would snow, etc. Seasons exist in the game to a small extent, since rain and fog are more common in the winter, and wildfires are more common in the summer, but currently there is no snow or tree differences on the entire map when seasons change. The main reason for this is so the map doesnāt change too drastically throughout the year if people like or dislike certain aesthetics. The village goes through major changes during certain times of the year like holidays though!
-
ElPolloLoquitoY asked: Will be playable humans or prey some time?
- Regular humans or animals that arenāt birds will not be playable since the game is focused on birds.
-
Stoneycreek2021 asked: Will ventral and dorsal seperate coloring be added? It may be hard to put on all the birds, but it would be awesome!
- Iāve definitely thought of this since a lot of birds have different coloring on the tops and bottom of their wings. Most birds in the game do not have a separate mesh for the top and bottom feathers, so right now this wonāt be possible unless the wing meshes of every bird gets updated. However, I do have an idea that could make it possible! Customization is not being updated again in the near future, but when it does, I do have some plans to be able to achieve ventral and dorsal coloring!
-
LavendelGloeckchen asked: Hello Golden! I wanted to ask you when or if you are going to add Vc ( Voicechat ) to Feather Family? Some of them might or want Vc in the game there and Iām one of them! I Appreciate it if its going to happen or not.
- Adding voice chat was considered at one point when the feature was brand new, but unfortunately I decided against adding it since voice chat is a little unsafe when it comes to people saying swears or inappropriate things and not being in the age group that theyāve set on their account.
-
Chaos_Bud asked: When are you gonna add a texture that is completely transparent? If not really never going to, I definitely understand
- While there wonāt be a completely transparent texture to prevent people from making their whole body invisible, there is a VIB texture that is 90% transparent so itās easier to remove body parts if desired!
-
Hello_bibicat asked: First of all, I canāt stress how much Iāve enjoyed this game! Itās pushed me to appreciate birds and all their abilities, to buy a bird feeder, to get me interested in birding, as it has likely done to many other players. Itās a timeless time-killer Iāve come back to over and over and ad infinitum; always on my āContinueā list. The Harpy eagle update in specific encouraged me to learn about birds on my own. In just a few months, I had vigorously researched birds, from their tetrachromacy to their barbs, barbules and barbicels, their behavior, and even how the first hard evidence of syntax used by non-primates is a trophy owned by a bird. Following thisā I wonder if more information like the ones on the school board or info sheet of the birds will be added, perhaps like pieces of trivia and myth-busters (e.g., āāAll birds lack the ability to smellā is a common thought; however, seabirds like Gulls have showed excellence in finding their way across the sea relying purely on smell, whereas songbirds often struggle in their area of expertiseā). I also wonder if more abilities akin to the birdsā real counterparts may be added, such as the ability to look down without stooping, the ability to compose a song using a simple interface, or even the ability to ākiteā in the air, realistic to many different raptors. Iād love to see Feather Family further simulate birdsā life. Secondly (and lastly), Keep up the amazing work!
- It means so much to me that Feather Family has given you a passionate interest in studying birds. There are so many interesting things about birds that it feels like we always have more to learn. Iāve definitely considered adding facts and trivia to the bird selection menu about all of the species of birds. This was in development at one point and was cut due to time, but itās still planned and coming! Also, I completely agree with giving birds behaviors that make them feel like their real-life counterparts. Over this past year a lot of new abilities were added like mimicry, climbing, diving, and pretty soon, flying will be updated! Giving raptors the ability to kite would be really cool and make them feel like real birds of prey. There are also some planned abilities for other birds coming very soon that I wonāt spoil! The ability to make a song as a songbird is a very interesting one I havenāt thought of. I will consider it!
-
StaroftheNorth1 asked: Will u bring back any old effects they are super useful but I donāt have any or make a day where u can get them every 2 years on a random day because I rly like old effects especially the bee effect (I like all them tho) I donāt know if Iām to late :3
- The old effects like the bee, bone, feather, and egg are being planned to return! I am planning to upload completely new avatar accessories for each of the particle effects, and owning them will allow you to equip the particle, even without VIB! Thereās not an exact date yet since itās still being worked out. When they get uploaded they will be available permanently, so no need to worry about a limited time sale. (Owning the old legacy shirts will still work and this wonāt be changed!)
-
Pro_Robloxer7980 asked: Hey Golden! This is bit of a goofy question to ask, but have you ever considered adding the ability to choose between our avatar or even adding separate human models (npc or not)? I honestly think itād be cool to roleplay as a person/our avatar, or even having human npcs that have some side quests we could possibly do, or even dialogue like the penguin scientists?
- At the very beginning of the game, I actually did consider adding the ability to be your Roblox avatar or custom human models. I even made some (extremely rough looking) human models at one point just to see how they looked. Ultimately, I decided not to add the ability to be a human because it was a little uncanny, and the style of Roblox avatars did not fit with the art style of the game. It would probably also require a completely different customization system since humans donāt have similar parts as birds and also have clothes.
-
Axoloto124 asked: could we maybe get injuries and maybe sanctuary codes and treatments like the little bands and different injuries?
- Being able to add injuries on the birds would be really cool for roleplaying! I have a customization idea that might make this possible in the future! (Itās not in development yet and not planned to come soon, but itās on the table when customization is updated again.)
-
Blue_Tinamou asked: In any future remodel updates for the existing birds in the game, do you plan to make the models more realistic? For example, accurately modeling the scapular feathers (the ācovertā feathers on their backs that birds use to tuck away and protect their wing flight feathers) so they arenāt just left exposed like they currently are in the game?
- It would be really cool to make the bird models have a lot of realism that would allow for realistic feather folding and placement on the body. The style of the game was intentionally designed to be slightly cartoony and simple to be more expressive, make customization easier, and to run well on low end devices. Usually, the reason why there are simplified parts on the birds, especially the wings, is so there are as few tris and instances being loaded as possible. Another thing that makes the wing designs especially difficult to make is the āblock basedā rigging style. Having scapular feathers on a skinned mesh (a mesh that can fold and bend) would probably look much better since it wonāt clip into the body as weirdly.
-
hfgdtygrdgrdhrthdgr asked: Can you remove the moaās wings and the kelenkenās back head tuft entirely?
- The wings on the moa model are only there so it doesnāt break the customization features because coloring the wings or saving a moa palette will try to find wings that are not there. However, I can resize them to be very small to make it more accurate! For the Kelenken, the tuft is only there as an artistic design choice based on the fact that the only living member of its order, the Seriema, also had a feathered crest on its head. We donāt actually know if it had a tuft on its head or not. Any part of the body can be made transparent with the transparent texture if you would like to remove it on your design!
-
giraffe32211 asked: will large prey npcs like deer and others be added
- This is an interesting one. It would be really cool to have large prey animals for the larger birds that hunted large prey, like Deinonychus and Kelenken. After thinking about it for a little, since very few of the birds hunted animals this large, they might not be added. There are more prey planned though! Some more insects and small animals are being planned!
-
katey12113 asked: What do you think about ever implementing some sort of system that allows servers to stay up for five or so more minutes after the host has left? I think it could be good incase the host needs to rejoin because its getting too laggy or it could help if a host accidentally gets disconnected and they wanna come back. It could also be nice in case people wanna friend people before the server shuts down. I donāt know much about coding though, so I donāt know if its a plausible idea or not.
- This is something thatās been brought up to me a few times, and I completely understand that itās frustrating to randomly disconnect and lose all of the people you were roleplaying with. Adding a feature like this might be a little tricky because of how the entire system operates. The game cannot tell if a player left because they were laggy or lost internet, or if they disconnected manually. I wonder if a feature that teleports everyone to the same public server would be a good idea so you can still find all of the people you were with in the server that got shut down. Let me know if this would be helpful!
-
VegitoBlue2333333 asked: Will flying ever be reworked? Like how the OG Bird Simulator game had. And will it be more realistic depending on the weather? Like stormy and windy weather making it difficult or (easy for some) to fly?
- Yes! Flying is going to be reworked soon, and itās in active development! There are a lot of plans for physics to be involved with flying, as well as weather events affecting flight too!
-
crazydragonyeet asked: will you ever add the ability to draw patterns on your bird? To make roleplays of non-bird characters way more accurate and fun, or is it too risky considering some people will maybe use it for inapropriate things? I think itās a good idea, may be hard to script tho but it helps a lot, example: turning your whole body mostly invisible and drawing bone patterns on top to mimic that bird as a spooky skeleton version or even draw yourself to look like a fish!
- This would be a really cool idea! Since itās freeform drawing, you are right that it probably is too risky because people would be able to draw inappropriate things, and games with freeform drawing in them must be rated 13+ on Roblox.
-
jjhk3j3j asked: Are you going make a way for people to get vip and robux birds for 10k feathers?
- There are no plans to make gamepass birds available with feathers.
-
ryustar_123 asked: Golden! Considering possible 2027 SoF, Will Yi-Qi have a chance to make it in?
- Iāve been debating adding the Yi-Qi since itās been heavily suggested. Right now, the classification of Scansoriopterygids (Yi-Qi, Epidexipteryx, etc.) sits outside of Eumaniraptora for most studies, but inside of Avialans for some. This means that itās either more distantly related to birds than dromaeosaurids, or closely related to birds like Archeopteryx. If the Yi-Qi is ever officially classified within Eumaniraptoria, then it will be considered!
-
Noobyboy2459 asked: can hunting mechanics be added like warrior cats for birds of prey and other predatory birds? Idk if this is already a feature I like JUST just started. For example like rabbits or voles and stuff
- It would be really cool if prey could react to players, like running or hiding if a player is nearby, rather than just moving around on a fixed plane. Thereās nothing like this planned, but I really like the idea!
-
Jackyyyyyyyy26 asked: What happens if you fly forever
- If you manage to escape the boundaries on the edges of the map and keep flying, you wonāt find anything, but if you fly long enough, the geometry on your character might start experiencing distortion. This is called the āFloating Pointā phenomenon and happens because of the way the Roblox engine computes the coordinates of the vertices on meshes. This happens in every Roblox game, and you can try it out for yourself!
-
FluffyCat9983 asked: do you plan to improve vr controls/flight? (I play on computer but I would love better vr flight to be better)
- Yes! Improving the VR flight controls is definitely on my list of things to work on when the flight update releases. Right now, the current flight system wasnāt designed with VR in mind, so itās very hard to fly because moving up and down isnāt possible. The new system will work with VR and itās going to be tested on a real VR device to make sure it works!
-
dusan_giggity asked: will you ever add platypus in game cuz it has Beak and lays eggs sooš?
- Since platypuses are mammals and are not related to birds, they wonāt be added to Feather Family. Their ābeaksā are convergent structures that evolved independently from birds.
-
GoddessEris02 asked: Will you ever add a sleep action?
- Iāve been wanting to! Since it would be too difficult to make brand new animations on all of the birds in the game, I was considering having a ātuck headā animation that can be used for sleeping. This is not in development or planned yet, just something that could be possible!
-
JWDINO15 asked: Could there ever be an ability to swap between eye types? (Like loon/grebe and regular) or perhaps even ones with expressions? I know this is kinda possible now with markings, but since most are asymmetrical, it doesnāt really work. Thank you for adding a grackle. 
- (I only chose one of your questions but feel free to ask me the other ones in my email and Iāll answer them for you!) Iāve considered the possibility of changing eye types. Right now, itās not possible because the different eye types are different individual meshes and not images, so it canāt be swapped out for something different during runtime. People have save files with the pupil colors/textures/markings saved, so I also want to avoid breaking that. However, I have some future customization ideas in mind that might make it easier to customize eye design. Iāve seen some really cool ways people are customizing the eyes right now in-game, like giving them sparkles and eyelids, and I want to try to make doing this easier! (Thanks so much for liking the grackle!!)
-
CriSha0328 asked: remember the cat on Halloween?, can you do it again but this time with animations?
- (I think this is referring to the cat from the April Foolās update in 2023.) It would be funny to bring the cat back! Usually I do different and unique things for every April Foolās update, but I can re-add things from old April Foolās updates like the plane and the cat! (Another running gag is the āpigeonā and the ultra realistic chicken)
-
Princessrosalina_11w asked: will you make more materials and colors for nests?
- There arenāt any plans to add more materials to nests, but I have been brainstorming some ideas for making nests more customizable! Nothing is planned, but more nest customization is something worth considering.
-
tuxxnado asked: is there a possibility of nests being expanded further? or perhaps āclaimableā nests/dens?
- āClaimableā pre-placed nests used to be a feature in the very early days of Feather Family, but it was updated with the free-placing nest building that exists today. I did once consider a ādenā feature in the early days too, but since only a few bird species live in burrows, it was added in the form of freely being able to place a burrow nest. I do want to expand nest features like others have suggested, like others have mentioned! Nothing is planned at all, but it would be cool to be able to make nests a little more customizable rather than just presets and recolors.
-
foxbertocarlos asked: Have you ever thought about adding other playable animals to Feather Family? Many roleplays involve humans, foxes, cats and other kinds of medium sized predators (and even prey). So have you ever considered adding a stylized human model and some other playables (Cats, Deer, Foxes, Rats, Rabbits, etc) to the game?
- There will not be the ability to be other animals besides birds (except bird hybrids like the Griffin and Peryton) since the game is a bird-focused game.
-
tungtungugsahurrr asked: Hi Golden!! i might be a bit late but i want to know why or how the 16 age group or more are restricted to public servers, or is it because of how long the account has last. Because i have an alt that i am currently using that is 16, and i dont have any options to join a server. I have been playing FF for a very long time so im not anyone new or whatever. So please let me know why i cant. Thank you!!
- Any age group, even unverified users, can join roleplay servers. However, a new account must be at least 14 days old in order to join them to prevent ban evasion or unwanted behavior.
-
WyBlox85 asked: can you add adult offspring, so that the offspring can be better and can you give them a Hunt mode so that they can hunt the prey?
- Adult offspring are not planned because it might be a little too spammy for larger birds, like moas, kelenkens, gamepass birds, etc. I am planning on adding the āhurtā animation to offspring though, so there can be roleplays with hurt offspring!
-
peanut13619 asked: Can we create cosplays?
- Yes! Anyone is allowed to customize their bird like their favorite fandom characters or OCs and show them off!
-
BadKitty0309 asked: Shiny, will you ever add female pheonix? Every bird has a male and female version except pheonix. It would be really cool! Also, im Fuzzel. I host hangouts every day!
- There are no plans to add a female/male variant to the Phoenix since I decided to not make it gender dimorphic.
-
stinkerbinker1223 asked: Will We Be Able To Put Multiple Markings On One Spot?
- Multiple markings are an interesting concept and Iāve thought about it. Itās not currently planned because it would be a little complicated to add, but I do have some different small ideas for customization in the future. Again, customization was just recently massively updated so there arenāt any plans in the near future, but when the time comes for another update, there will be more ways to customize your bird!
-
firfox2df89 asked: Hello!! I was wondering if you can like make the Shoebill more Accurate with the size and the Sound to! Along with adding hover! That would be great oh and maybe can you add some Xbox controls on their to?
- The shoebillās current call is a recording of a real shoebill, and itās 4.5 feet tall in the game, which is the accurate size. For the Xbox controls, the shoebill (and other birds) should be controller compatible, but if you are having issues with this, I would like to know more so it can be fixed!

OrangeSheep_Playz asked: Hiii! There are so many houses and building around the map. Are there any plans to add humans or humanoids going to be added to the game as a playable character for roleplays? Thanks!
- Although humans are technically canon in the universe because of the existence of buildings, regular humans arenāt going to be added since the game is mainly about birds. Humanoid creatures howeverā¦thatās an interesting thought!

geckogamer671 asked: hello golden! I wonder if you would be willing to add 3d modeled feathers or body parts that we can place on birds, and save them in paint!
- This is something that I also thought would be an interesting alternative to accessories; to have specific parts of specific birds be removable or addable, like adding a feather structure or removing a limb, especially in cases where there is dimorphism or different species having differently shaped structures. Nothing like this is planned because it would be very specific for only a handful of birds and not added to all of them, but itās something maybe worth considering!

cakeyjr8 asked: im also wondering if you can make the tar pyhics (i hope u can read that-) more real if not then thanks for reading this anyway c:
- Right now the tar physics are written to allow players to be able to escape if they choose to, but if there is a certain behavior that you want tar to affect the birds with, Iām very open to suggestions!

FruitPunch_Princess asked: why donāt all birds have female and male models ?
- Birds that do not have gender dimorphism do not have separate models since the models would be the same. Birds that have gender dimorphism but only in color (like the House Sparrow for example), also do not have separate models because the models would be the same except for color. These birds will often have the other gender available in the āPresetsā instead. When there are two different models for the genders, itās for birds that have noticeable dimorphism between the genders, like the Condor (head ornament), Peafowl (tail feathers) or Moa (extreme size difference).

sisi_123173 asked: What if you make only natural colors for bird what do you thing? Pink swan or black swan? I think its black swan.please add this and its be sau mlrd realistic.
- While some birds can only be a range of white/brown/black colors (like swans), there are a lot of birds that can be blue/pink/green/red in real life, which is why the customization allows for those colors. Adding an option for players to choose what colors the birds can be on roleplay servers is not planned, but would be cool for making realistic roleplays of birds that have monochromatic colors!

AlonaHook asked: Will water nests come back, because some waterfowl like coots and grebes build water platforms?
- Iāve been heavily considering bringing water nests back! The ability to build nests underwater was actually a bug and not intentional, which is why it was fixed, but it would be cool for some birds to have the ability to build a nest floating on top of the water, like some semi-aquatic birds actually do in real life.

thorben_roblox asked: Hello GoldenAviary, I was wondering if you are willing to change the habitat section in the encyclopedia. Currently, it says where the bird lives in written words, (e.g., Southeast Asia). I think it would be a lot more interesting if it could be changed in the form of a world map highlighting their natural habitat instead.
- I actually was thinking about this when the encyclopedia was being planned! I really wanted to have a world map and put a green highlighted area on exactly where the bird is from. The reason why it wasnāt added was because of space, and there wasnāt enough room to add it with all of the other things on the page. Perhaps in the future I could consider an option to click on a map and it opens up in a new window or something!

Bendupwind478 asked: Hello Golden,I wanted to know how long you wait before giving a bird a skin for example if the duck as given a skin in January,roughly how long would we have to wait till we could expect another one.Also I wanted to say thank you for helping me get into birds.If it wasnāt for your game me and friends would probably think birds are boring but now we donāt.I also really appreciate the realism presets feature,itās very useful,Thanks
- Itās so cool that Feather Family got you into birds!! There isnāt a specific timeframe when birds get new skins, but usually I like to wait at least a year until birds get a new skin. If a bird hasnāt been updated in a long time, they are higher priority than birds that have been updated more recently. It all depends, since some birds that donāt have any other species in their family, like the Secretary bird or Shoebill, wonāt get a skin at all, and some birds whose families are extremely diverse, like Cotingas, may get more skins than others!
