    Edit: Out of curiosity, will these pets be dye-able?

    That would actually be a good way of customization, make monsters have color palates for dyeing. Would be harder for some monsters, and procedurally generated ones would probably be even harder than static ones to set up for dyeing, but would make the system even more personalized than it is.

    Thats true, but randomly generated monsters already do have a color palate of their own, depending on the type of biome they spawn in.They also have an Albion version aswell. Albinos of the randomly generated monsters have a rare chance of spawning in the world. Perhaps they could do something like that for the more procedurally generated monsters, such as Uniclops and Smoglin. But i agree that it would take a bit of spriting work.

    Venison. Gotta love autocorrect. @Ratbagdoo, it's not a mod at all. It's a feature in Starbound Nightly, which will eventually appear in Starbound Stable. Most of these news posts apply to Nightly.

    all those updates... does that mean release 1.0 is near?

    Not really, although that might still be the case. These updates are meant to keep us - the interested community - well, updated about the development of the game. They are usually posted at the end of every workday.

    They do a pretty good job of keeping us updated. The devs have taken a hint from what years of relative silence before updates brings.

    Starbound is secretly a 2D Pokemon game :nuruninja: All that space stuff is just a front :illuminati:

    I like that theory, lol.

    I hope there are servers just for trading pets in the future.

    gljohnson1988 Yeah, You!

    How do you capture creatures in the first place? I made a "Creature Capture Station" using the same research station that gives you a skyrail table and it only gives me "Critter Capture Pods". The critters don't do anything....

    If so, I demand Pokémon Pet Contests!

    And my not-sure-about-the-gender Wisper shall collect ribbons through the multiverse. :rainbowbarf:

    It sounds like you're playing an outdated version.
