Finally, at long last...
Prototype subtype changers are now avaialble!

You can find them in our new shop, Prototype Labs!

Prototype Discovery items are now available for 50 each, and three can be purchased yearly! To earn Kindness Tokens, participate in Kindness Prompts, which involve creating gift art for other group members!

50 Kindness Tokens may seem like a steep price, so I'd like to elaborate more on this: Prototypes are not intended to be as easily obtainable as regular Amicabots! They're meant to feel like an incentive and reward for active members of the community. By paying it forward and giving gifts to others with a show of generosity, you'll be able to create these rare Amicabots.

Once purchased, Prototype Discovery items can be transferred to other users!

There's a total Eclipse in the US... so, to celebrate, I've released a limited time Eclipse Gaskit!

You can obtain up to 2 of them through these means:

Completing this Flash Prompt
Purchasing it at the Pet Shop for 25 Spare Parts

They will be obtainable until April 15th, so be sure to set a reminder for yourself if you want one!

A new permanent foraging area has appeared...

Welcome to Halcyon Beach, a serene little spot where you can search around for various odds and ends!

With the introduction of a new foraging area, I'd also like to announce that I will eventually be reworking the other permanent foraging areas, the Abandoned City and Caldera!
They'll remain the same for now, though, as I'm on break. I just wanted to open this area up for now as a little treat! Enjoy the new foraging area and the little goodies that appear, in the meantime!

Hello, everyone! I'm so excited to announce that we now have our first Cultivation area functional and ready to use!

Step into the Glowlit Caves to cultivate a rare fruit known as the Glowpeach!

In order to unlock the cultivation area, you will need to complete a permanent, once-per-user prompt: Glowlit Cave Expedition! This can be completed at any time to unlock the farming area and a handful of items you can use to cultivate your first Glow Peaches... It can be accessed at any time in the Special Prompts category of the prompt page!

In the future, a Gardening Shop will be opened up to buy supplies! For now, you can obtain your first seeds through the prompt.

New Features

Along with our first cultivation area, we have a handful of new site features!

User Shops

User Shops can now be accessed through the World tab in the navigation bar! To create your shop, head over to My Shop under home! You can stock items using Quickstock from your Inventory, also accessable via Home. Please keep in mind not to create offensive images for your shop front, as that can result in a warning or a ban if the infraction is severe enough. (Basic decency rules apply; don't use offensive memes or images meant to harm photosensitive people!)

Certain items are not stockable, such as key items and the likes.

Awards

Yep, we now have Awards! None have been created yet, though... but there's a neat little area to display them on your profile, when the time comes that you'll earn them! These will be used for future events and the likes, showing that you participated in various activities!

Mod Mail

Moderators can now send users messages privately! This may be used for discussing payments or discussing other private matters.

Theme Manager

Along with all of the other new additions to the site, we now have a Theme Manager! We have yet to create any themes for it, but they'll be accessible sometime in the near future. If you're a HTML/CSS coder and want to help us out in exchange for some Amicabot items/MYOs, please reach out to us!

A new daily has arrived!

Head on over to the Abandoned Theme Park every day to spin the wheel! For the price of 10 Spare Parts, a randomly-determined prize will be all yours!

This daily is permanently accessible under Dailies in the Play tab on-site! I hope you all enjoy this fun little feature! :D

Welcome to the third round of the Amicabots Gacha!

Hello, Amicabot community... and hello to anyone who'd like to join in on the fun of this species! I'm hosting a FTO-only MYO ("make your own") event from now until the end of March 15th! Not only that, but I'm also hosting a FREE FOR ALL RAFFLE!!! Yippee!!!!!!! All you need to do get your ticket is spread the word about this MYO event and you can get a ticket to enter! You can get up to three tickets by promoting the FTO MYO event!

how to obtain your free fto myo

Head on over to Orion's Oddities here and obtain the Upgraded MYO slot for free! You can also get a weekly box of stuff and, if you're new to the site, a welcome gift item! The MYO slot will not expire and you can use it at any time.

Be sure to view the Amicabot Design Guide and Trait List when designing your new Amicabot!

how to enter the free-for-all raffle

• Share a link to this news post on any social media such as Toyhouse, Deviantart, Tumblr, Twitter, or Instagram!
• You may share the news post up to three times on three different sites for a total of three raffle tickets!
• Submit the link(s) to your shared post to THIS PROMPT to obtain your raffle ticket(s)
• Open up the ticket(s) in your inventory! This part is important, since you won't be counted for the raffle unless you open it up.

Now that the regrowth event has settled down, some Amicabots have been thinking more about tech than greenery... leading some to decide to research how to build an entirely new Amicabot! Building a new friend is all the rage this season, will you try it yourself?

The Building Beginnings event introduces a new function - Buildables! Read more about them here, and potentially get some of your own by participating in the latest event.

This event will last until the end of March, potentially being extended depending on feedback.

Be sure to get your daily Blueprints, and if you need more, complete any of the event prompts! Blueprints may be spent in the Event Shop to obtain a new kind of MYO - BYOs (build-your-owns), and BYOs will become a permanent addition to Zip's Station after the event, and potentially obtainable in future events as well.
