Thank you to everyone who entered the Emoji Contest 2! We received nearly 300 hilarious and adorable emoji entries, and judging was no easy task.

The Succubuns team kept 3 main criteria in mind while judging:

1) Does the artwork show skill and effort?

2) Will the artwork read clearly when scaled down to in-line emoji size?

3) Does the emoji convey an emotion, action, or sentiment that our server members are likely to use to express themselves?

We also kept other factors in mind, such as "Is this in character for the NPC depicted?", "Is there another Succubuns emoji or winning entry that conveys the same emotion?", and "Does this entrant have another winning entry in the same tier already?" 

We think that the 60 new emojis we've selected from this contest will be an amazing addition to the official Succubuns Discord server, and we hope you're all excited to put them to use!

Withou further ado, the winners!

Additionally, the free merch raffle has been rolled and distributed! Thank you to everyone for your interest in Succubuns merch, and we hope to see your adorable pics of your merch once it ships.

Hello all, time for another mini QOL update before our summer vacation ends!

Prompts now have variable rewards for those prompts that reward multiple items, or items to a specific character!

This is going to be much easier on the admins moving forward, and will mean less mistakes on things like prompts that give different rewards for first v second prompt!
Excitingly, it also means that you can now select the NPC prompt reward on a little drop down featuring ONLY the NPC's items when you submit the featured character on an NPC prompt! Please make sure to do so on all future promts, or they will be rejected.

We've made an updated prompt submission guide for new players, or vets that need a refresher on the new systems! Please feel free to check it out.

As with all our custom code, there's a chance of bugs popping up for things we forgot to test for. If you see them, please alert Yves or submit in the bug-reports channel of the discord.

Hope you're having a great summer!

Succubuns has surpassed 1,000 players!

The fact that a thousand people out there saw our devilish bunnies and decided it was something worth putting their time, money, and energy into is incredibly meaningful to us. Though we've been putting our heart and soul into building this site for well over two years now, we never imagined it would reach this level of success before its first anniversary!

We cannot thank each and every one of you enough for helping to make Succubuns the fun, sexy, and supportive community it's become.

To celebrate, we're giving out a 1k Celebration Gift, which you can collect by clicking the box below. This gift contains 50 carats, a random dango, and a random sinful trait drink, to show that we really mean it when we say: Thank you!

This gift will be available until July 17th, so make sure to claim it before then! If you have any friends who've been thinking about joining, now would be a great time for them to hop on board and start the game with some extra goodies.

But that's not the only exciting news we have for you today...

Official Merch Store Grand Opening

The Succubuns Official Merch Store is here!

We have open preorders for hanging Shibani keychains, a variety of sticker sheets featuring imps and NPCs, and postcard prints of the Succubuns event banners.

We were blown away to see that over 50% of users who filled out our Summer Feedback Form were interested in buying Succubuns merch, so we hope this batch of "starter" merch can help you bring some Burrowgatory swag to your day-to-day!

All Succubuns merch orders will be fulfilled by our good friends Sydney and Oneiir at Unicorn & Dragon Productions, and will receive a coupon for free shipping at their shop so that you can combine some of their amazing Fire Emblem, Pokemon, and D&D merch with your Succubuns order.

$20 Voucher Raffle

Finally, we'd just like to say thank you to everyone who joined the Summer MYO Sale, entered the Envious Handbasket Raffles, or filled out our Summer Feedback Form! We've been having such an amazing time approving your Art Fight attacks, seeing you spruce up your user shops, and get hyped about the future of Succubuns. Here's to another thousand Burrowgatory residents by this time in 2024!

NOTE: We had a small oversight preventing users who had entered the USD raffle from entering the carat raffle, and reset the tickets. If you purchased a ticket for the carat raffle before this update, please double check the Bunnery and purchase a new one if it does not say you've already purchased one.

—

Our Summer MYO Sale is now closed, and we sold a grand total of 222 Hell in a Handbaskets!

That means 22 Envious Handbaskets to be raffled for $40 each, and 22 more to be raffled for 400 carats.

The USD Envious Handbasket Raffle has already been rolled, and you can find the list of winners here. The winners have all been sent a temporary key item to allow them to purchase their handbasket; if you're one of the lucky 22, please make sure to purchase your Envious Handbasket in the next 24 hours, or your slot will be re-raffled.

The carat Envious Handbasket Raffle is now open, and tickets can be obtained in the Bunnery for 24 hours. Make sure to grab your ticket and open it from your inventory before 7/11 8pm EST if you want the chance to purchase an Envious Handbasket for 400 carats.

Hello, Burrowgatory!

Our Summer MYO sale will be opening today at 8pm EST, and will run for 48 hours. As usual, Hell in a Handbaskets will be available for $30, one per user, with a raffle for Envious Handbaskets afterwards.

We'll be using the boost in activity when the sale goes up to stress test our servers upgrades, so if you're not afraid of some potential lag, we invite you to bust down the door right at 8pm and help us see if the site can hold up.

♡♡♡

We're also happy to announce that we have selected four new moderators to help out with Succubuns!

eroge will be returning to the team as a a Discord moderator.

ornamental will be taking on written prompt approvals.

arasukai will be helping with art prompt approvals.

kingfauna will be helping with both art prompt approvals and Discord moderation as needed.

Please give them all a warm welcome!

Thank you to everyone who applied for a moderator position. We received too many great applications to accept at this time, but are glad to know that there are strong options for expanding the team again in the future.

Greetings all!
As I'm sure you're all aware, there have been a large number of bugs that have cropped up since our update on June 30th!

One of them may have edited your user wishlists, so please make sure you check them all out!
If you're still experiencing any of these issues, please let us know!

• Biggest one: Users default wishlists should now be working for all users.
• Pets can now be added to wishlists again. If you previously had a pet on your wishlist, it has likely been swapped for an item. Please review your wishlists to confirm that they only have what you want on them!
• User shops now allow users to add all items that are intended to be sellable
• User shops should no longer show the option for users to transfer non-transferrable items when in the inventory
• The mini clock is back!
• Pet names should display the correct amount of times
• Usershops can now be sorted by newest/by oldest
• No users should have issues viewing the errands page, even if they had a previously unclaimed errand from hazebloom harvest!
• The errands page shouldn't auto refresh every second for some uses.

And finally, just in case... I somehow managed to say January during yesterday's warning of upcoming downtime. Downtime will be happening JULY 4th at 2:00pm site time. Please plan accordingly and thank you for your patience with the succubuns team during this time of extra errors!

Greetings burrowgatory!

We will be having scheduled downtime from approximately 2:00-3:00pm site time on Tuesday, July 4th!
This will be (hopefully) our final server upgrade downtime for the forseeable future. In addition to increasing our server compacity, we are now migrating to a fully new and much better optimized system to hopefully reduce lag and other issues site wide!

This is a major upgrade and so it will likely take longer than previous upgrades. If you come to visit the site and it is down, please check our discord or our twitter for more information!

Hello, Burrowgatory! We hope you're enjoying  the double-length Swimsuit Season event.

In lieu of a new event update this month, we're proud to announce the biggest single update to Succubuns.com's gameplay since our launch, bringing you 4 new permanent features and over 60 new items. We hope you'll enjoy having a whole new side to playing Succubuns!

Errands

After testing them out in the Hazebloom Harvest event, errands are finally a permanent feature of the site.

Every day, players will refresh 3 stamina points to spend running hour-long errands at the Grocery Store, Liquor Store, or Kitchen Goods Store. The items obtained from these stores can all be sold directly from your inventory for carats!

But that's not all these items are good for, as we've also fully fleshed out errands' partner feature...

Crafting

After making its first appearance for crafting mochi in the Year of the Bun event, and then sparse usage for event items since, the crafting feature is now here to stay.

Using the ingredients gathered from running errands, you can now craft a variety of food items. These food items can be sold from your inventory for more than the sum of their parts, so it will be up to you if you want to sell your ingredients, or save them up for recipes that will increase your profits!

Desserts can be crafted using only items from the grocery store, and sell for 6 carats a pop.

Entrees will require some kitchen goods in addition to groceries, but will net you 22 carats!

But that's not all...

Hops and Dan have graciously agreed to share some of their knowledge, and you can now craft standard drinks and dango in addition to buying them from shops.

Complete the prompt Mixology 101 to unlock the recipes for Bourbun, Sin and Tonic, Drabsinthe, and all 8 sinful trait drinks. You'll also get a free sample of Hops' Secret Ingredient, a rare item required for crafting all trait drinks.

Complete the prompt Dango 101 to unlock the recipes for Black Sesame, Strawberry, Matcha, Mitarashi, Red Bean, Blueberry, Ube, and Cocoa Dango. You'll also take home a Dango Stick and Rice Flour, to help you craft your own dango of choice.

You can view all of the new crafting ingredients and crafted foods in the Encyclopedia.

More types of errands, ingredients, and crafting recipes will be added over time. We hope you're excited to watch the depth of Succubuns' gameplay grow!

User Shops

To make it easier for players to conduct item transactions without using the item trades channel in our server, we're very pleased to finally add user shops to the site.

Players can now select items and pets from their inventory to stock in their own personal shops, where they can set a price and sell them to other players. You can view your own shop in the account tab, or all user shops under "Marketplace" in the browse tab.

Harkening back to the good ol' days of Neopets, players can write a custom shop description and upload a "shopkeeper" image of their choice to greet customers who click on their shop. We encourage you to create adorable art of your succubuns watching over your wares, or even incorporate the job of running your shop into your bun's character! Or perhaps, if you prefer a more humorous route, a lazy "Out to Lunch" sign or a hapless imp will do the job.

Safety Deposit Box

Now that there are more items that can be sold into oblivion with a misclick, it's about time we implemented safety deposit boxes.  These can be accessed via your inventory through the button on the top right.

Players can now choose to store any item from their inventory in their safety deposit box. Once in the box, items cannot be used, traded, sold, donated, or deleted unless first removed from the box. This should help you hang onto ingredients until you have everything you need for a recipe, hoard seasonal drinks until they're more valuable, or clean up the keepsakes and licenses cluttering up your inventory.

Please Be Aware

This is a huge amount of new code, much of which was not originally built to work together, so it's likely that bugs or errors will crop up. Please be patient, and report all issues to Bug Reports, or the bug reports channel in our server.

It's also very important to understand that, though the Succubuns team has done our best to create a balanced system that will benefit the game economy and provide a satisfying gameplay loop, we cannot predict all of the effects these new carat and item sources will have. It's possible that we will need to make adjustments to the new items, recipes, payouts, or systems in order to balance the gameplay after seeing it in action and getting player feedback. We apologize in advance for any inconvenience that may occur due to these adjustments.

♡♡♡

Upcoming

We will be hosting our summer seasonal MYO sale from July 7th-10th.

Just like our April sale, MYOs will be $30, limited to one per player. For every 10 Hell in a Handbaskets sold, we'll also raffle off one Envious Handbasket for $40. This time, we'll also be raffling off an equal number of Envy MYOs for 400 carats each, so make sure to save up if you want to enter!

♡♡♡

That's all for today! We hope you're all excited to try out running errands and crafting some tasty foods. If you become a good cook, maybe you'll even meet someone else who's passionate about food soon...

Some quick reminders:

- The second Emoji Contest ends on July 15th.

- The Swimsuit Season shop and Summer Feedback Form are open until July 31st.

- Art Fight runs until July 31st, and Succubuns is hosting incentives for Art Fight players who want to draw succubuns.

Have a good July, Burrowgatory!

Hello, Burrowgatory, and thank you so much for your support of our Pride Month charity sale!

Between all 8 pride buns that were auctioned, Succubuns raised a grand total of $2,250 USD for the National Center for Transgender Equality, a foundation that uses its funds to help trans youth and fight against anti-transgender laws.

(Some GAs collected and donated their profits individually, while others had Succubuns put it towards our lump sum donation.)

This is more than we could have possibly hoped to be able to donate. We're so grateful for the GAs who chose to donate a design, and to every member who bid on one of them. Our staff is entirely made of members of the LGBT community, and it's amazing to be able to give back to those people fighting for the rights of us and our LGBT siblings.

If you weren't able to bid, but still want to support the National Center for Transgender Equality, now is an amazing time to donate. Check out their website to learn more about this organization and how to donate.

We here at Succubuns just want to say thank you for giving us the opportunity to do good, and for all of your continued support. We couldn't do this without each and every one of you!

It's almost July, and you know what that means... It's time for Art Fight!

Art Fight is a yearly art community event taking the form of a competition between two teams. Players join a team, upload references of their original characters, and earn points for their team by creating art "attacks" of characters belonging to members of the other team.

Like Succubuns, Art Fight is a game made to inspire creativity, encourage artists to improve their skills, and most importantly, to have a ton of fun!

This July, Succubuns is hosting Art Fight incentives on our site for players who choose to draw Succubuns characters in Art Fight. We encourage you to upload your succubuns to Art Fight, and seek out other players' succubuns to attack!

Check out our Succubuns Art Fight page for information  on claiming bonus carat rewards for attacks on your fellow players' Succubuns characters.
