Chibi Zentus!




Two precious darlings have shown their faces in Subeta, and we hope you have a bathtub big enough for them! The chibi zentu comes in two variations - day and night. Which version you get will depend on which time of day your zentu was originally created. If your zentu was created during the day, it will turn into a day chibi. If it was created at night, it will become a night chibi.



If you'd like to have a chibi zentu in the opposite color of that which you first created, you must first use the corresponding day or night zentu elixir before you use the chibi potion. Simple, right?



Example: Rah has a common night zentu. Even if she changed her night zentu to twilight or field or any other non-common color, using the chibi potion on it will turn it into a chibi night zentu. If she wants a chibi day zentu, she must first use the Common Day Zentu Elixir on her pet, and THEN use the chibi potion. That is how she would get a chibi day zentu.

Cash Shop: Bloody Shark Jaw




Did you ever visit the carnival and play the kind of game where you won a live fish as a prize? Did you ever wonder where those fish came from, or even where the unwon fish went at the end of the day? I don’t imagine many did, as a child.



Many years ago, there was one such fish that did not get won. He did not even get taken home by the stall owner, for his little bag fell to the floor and smashed, with his little fish body falling through the cracks in the pier. The ocean swallowed him up, and it was a cruel beast to a little funfair fish.



Plagued by the carnival music in his mind and a desire to be won, the little fish grew up fighting for survival in the open ocean, luck being his only companion as no other fish would come close. He longed to belong, and would try to approach people in the ocean but there was something about his appearance that seemed to scare them off - maybe the result of his injuries obtained in his fall. His quiet approaches turned into desperate chases, which often resulted in collisions with sharp objects that only further created his visage of horror. He disappeared one day, and people began to forget about him, talking only of legend.



Until today.



Bloody Shark Jaw




Jollyjaw is back, and is both enormous and frightening to behold with his appearance of a damaged carnival clown. Gone are his memories of any kind of happy life, replaced only by a desire to hunt and destroy any sense of belonging a person may have to the world. Grab the Bloody Shark Jaw from the Cash Shop today to challenge Jollyjaw and subdue him once more!



Carved Stone Saheric Beetle will retire on August 1st.
Experiment Pet Poll Results




Well, future customers and most excellent funders of the One True Zapper. I have quite some news for you. Thanks to your generosity, I find myself practically swimming in money overwhelmed with donations. Owing to the results of my poll, I believe I may have more than enough to fulfil the desires of certain experiment lovers. The results of the poll were as follows:







1. Experiment #2759 with 870,500,000

2. Experiment #5162 with 857,100,000

3. Experiment #3485 with 302,100,000

4. Experiment #0101 with 248,350,000

5. Experiment #870 with 208,100,000



As you can see, there were two contenders that zapped into the lead and - to let you in on a little behind the scenes fun - remained very much neck and neck throughout the donation period. It was very tense.



The donations were so high, in fact, that I believe I may be able to turn BOTH of these top contenders into full pets. I know, I said I would only do one! But I’m Euclid, the all powerful scientist - do you really want me to hold back on my constant and changing whims? Plus, the blob will be easy. Nobody is going to be worried about if its legs look anatomically correct or if it has furboobs.



So look forward to your future pets! Now I just need to come up with a name for them. I’m currently leaning towards ‘peabomination' and ‘blobface' but who knows what will happen while I’m tweaking my zapper. That’s not a euphemism. Get your mind out of the gutter. Maybe if you shout some suggestions at me some of them will influence my decisions. I can’t do all the work, people.

Design a Shopkeeper!
Discarded Sketches




A new design competition is here! Become a part of Subetan history by designing a new NPC for the Beanbag Shop! Long has this shop been devoid of a shopkeeper, and we believe it is finally time to change that - but first we want some user input as to who will take up the reins of the beanbag empire.



From now until 11:59 on July 31st you will have the chance to submit a design for a new beanbag shopkeeper, as well as some short backstory information. Once the submission portion of the competition ends, staff will go through the entries and pick out their 5 favorites which will then be voted on by the users to determine the ultimate winner. The winner will then have their design redrawn by one of the official staff artists, and will receive great glory! But also prizes in the form of 3,000 CSC, as well as a new themed beanbag set that will also stock in the beanbag shop. The four runner ups will receive a 500 Credit Gift Card and one beanbag from the set.



Click here to read the full brief and enter the competition!

Vibrant Charlie and Dillema!




I'm not sure that I trust the looks on either the vibrant charlie OR vibrant dillema's faces. They're probably both hatching a plot to water balloon you any moment.

Go Fund Euclid






I, the ever amazing and one TRUE scientist of Subeta, have been having success after success recently. Much better than that other so-called scientist who hasn’t had a successful result in YEARS. I’ve been working on some equations, and I theorize that, based on the results of the experiment-turned-Qrykee, I will be able to develop one of my experiments into a full-fledged pet species. Yes, yes, I know it was only possible with the Qrykee due to its connection to the Sewer Beast and evolutionary form yadda yadda but they don’t call me a genius for nothing! I’ve been studying the DNA, and I think it could work. As a matter of fact, I've already picked out the 5 experiments I believe it has the biggest potential to work on.



But as always, I need funding to proceed! I can’t just zap sP, you know. Well, I know I can zap certain things INTO sP but I’d have to get hold of those things first, which costs sP, and to be quite honest I’ve turned too many things into dust on my quest to fund myself. So I’ve decided to set this up as a kind of poll, except you donate for the experiment you most would like to see made into a full pet!



So come visit me here, and choose the experiment you most desire. You have until 11:59PM on July 23rd to cast your vote!

Hydrus Legecia




I hear all sorts of things while running my shop. Lately it's been rumors and speculation about some new creature spotted not far from shore. I'll admit, I doubted that it was actually something new, but it turns out that it is! It seems that Merana has been working her... what does she call it? "Blessing?" Whatever it is, she's been working it on legeicas. If you want a hydrus legeica of your own, you'll have to keep an eye out for Merana, but I'd recommend staying away from her.
