The Nivlets

Mix is a new event, aiming to bring back the main stores.  Every month, a bunch of designers either put out a new release, an exclusive recolour an older release, or put an older release on sale.  You use the HUD to skip across the grid for that month visiting all the wonders on offer for you.

From me, some buttons!  The Nivlet Barrette, a barrette with a button and a feather (bundle o' texture options of course), and the Nivlet Bracelets, buttons on a string to tie around your wrists.

ORIGAMI RIN-NE

The second part of the ORIGAMI event has now opened, the game and hunt!  I really enjoyed the game, I'm loving these story based HUD games that people have been developing recently.  While you have the HUD and are exploring the world of the supernatural, you can also find the coins for the hunt part of the event.  Each store with a gift (the gifts are at booths in the mall area) has a little basket, once you have found their coin and registered it in the HUD you can touch the basket at their booth to receive your gift.  I made a little octopus in a bag to carry, the prize from a goldfish scooping game that was, perhaps, a little peculiar.  The bag can be looped around a finger of your left or right hand to be carried around with you, as he gently undulates up and down.

Grab a HUD at the starting point (you may want to descript a bunch before going, there is a script limit!) and play the game!

Tips for playing the game: Walk everywhere, do not cam!  (Your HUD will light up red in the center when you are walking close to a coin, for one, but you will also get more of the full effect if you walk around!)  Touch everything.  Talk to everyone.  Follow what they tell you when applicable.  (And talk to people again!  Sometimes they have more to tell you!)  To save your progress in the HUD, remove it and reattach it periodically (say, after you finish each quest), so you will not lose ALL your progress if you have a hard crash (sadly, it's just the way SL works, things don't get saved properly until you take them off, and if you crash too hard it can't send the information to save).  If you get stuck, people are helping in the O R I G A M I Group, and there are a lot of English speakers playing so you may find help on the sim from fellow players.  And above all, have fun!

ORIGAMI RIN-NE is open until August 25.

Seasons Story ALSO has a sea theme, timely to go with Collabor88's current mermaid round.  I'm towards the Northeastern corner of the sim, on the outer walk, and you will find chunky fish heeled shoes there. There are 10 different base shoe patterns to choose from, and each shoe comes with 15 different painted fish heel colours, 10 trim colours, 12 colours of starfish button, and the option of tan or black soles.  If you have more than one or the pack, you can also mix toes and sides for yet more options!

They come with 3 versions: one for System Feet, one for Slink Mid Feet, and an extra tall one (with more fin!) for Slink High Feet.  They are unrigged and modify, so you may find that they fit other feet as well, but there is no guarantee.

At Seasons Story this month!

Mermaids abound at Collabor88 this month, and I continue to name things words that no one can ever spell.  This time it's sort of an obscure reference of a memorial to hya's poor betta fish who passed away, crossed with "koi" since, well, fishy (and, one hopes, at least THAT part will be easier to search for!)

Semi sheer tights with sheer-er scale cutouts, in 12 colours: 6 packs of 2, or a pack of them all.  They come with Slink Physique appliers (which will also work on the feet- make sure you have the current version!) and Omega appliers, as well as traditional clothing layers.

ORIGAMI Summer Festival

ORIGAMI is having a summer festival, a night event with stalls of all sorts.  I have come to love this pair of sims (the second is not open until the game opens on the 10th), so I am very happy I was able to participate in their event this time!

I made little hatchling Tengu for it- big nosed 天狗 Tengu with wings, bird faced 烏天狗 Karasu Tengu, and little birdlet 烏 Karasu.  The rare Karasu have little crowns and their eggs are gold and silver- the crowns and eggs are texture change with choices of gold or silver on touch. They all inquisitively watch the world from the safety of their eggs, but are not quite ready to finish breaking out and join it.

You can hold the eggs in left or right hand, to carry your little hatchling around with you.

There is also another event that starts July 10 on the sim- which is how you can get the items at the booths with the baskets full of gold coins.  For now, they are just there to tease you, as you can't get them until the 10th!
