TOPIC | Cestodes™, the Tapeworm Alternative!


Hello there. It has uh, been a while. A good while. Far too long. Like. An insanely long time since I first started this and said "hey, I'm gunna make it into a subspecies" only for me to get burnt out and procrastinate it for.. let's see here.. a little over a year! Spectacular.

But no seriously, I feel like I committed fraud or something. I'm sorry. It's kind of funny though if you think about it.

Major thing that kept me from working on this is that I really wanted to publish it as polished as it could be right off the bat. But I ended up never commissioning artists, or figuring out how to write manipulative- I mean convincing marketing. Whenever I feel stressed out over things like this I end up just running away from it entirely.

Sob story aside, I kind of realized I should just post it and I can y'know, spiff it up as time goes by. It's also April Fools [at least.. it is still for me.. and the website..] which I thought would be hilarious timing.

I can only assume a lot of you gone inactive by now, but if you were promised a free Tapeworm, here's your chance! Try to provide me with proof or something. I won't be able to remember.

I have the lot sitting around in here, though of course, I plan on pumping out more. Check the bios first, some were reserved by specific people that I gotta check up on first.

And to make up for my crime of fraud, I'm reducing the original price of the Tapeworms from 50kt/g to 25kt/g permanently.

Hey there! Glad to see you back! I made you a doofy little banner that I might still have kicking around— feel free to use it if you still have it and if not I’ll try to find it when I get back to my computer.

Slimy marketing copy is something I got fairly good at at one of my old jobs before it sucked my soul out through my eyeballs, so if you need someone to write some of it for you, absolutely send me a message. It feels scuzzy to write because it’s supposed to if you’ve got a sense of empathy, but using that skillset to sell pretend tapeworm dragons on a silly pixel dragon website feels like a much better use of everyone’s time.

[center]Honestly,even though I haven't commented anywhere,I was interested in the subspecies ever since the trial came out- I never got my hands on that little worm,but it really got my attention haha. I find it fun to see people make subspecies based on actual things but with a plot twist of sorts! Also,I'm glad you took a break..maintaining a massive thread can be stressful indeed,so it's genuinely better to step back and prioritize yourself before committing to your goals. If possible,may I purchase this girl,please? :) [url=https://www1.flightrising.com/dragon/100381515][img]https://www1.flightrising.com/rendern/350/1003816/100381515_350.png[/img][/url]

[quote]Whenever I feel stressed out over things like this I end up just running away from it entirely.[/quote] SAME. I ghost because "It's too much to face, give me 1 more day" and then 1 day turns into weeks, and then... If tackling something is hard, but giving up is harder, it stays in limbo. That said, I'm delighted you took the big leap! Graphics shop and stuff CAN wait until "someday". :D

Oh and please send this one whenever you get a chance, from the "prepaid, claim and name yours to be released during the grand opening" group. Thanks SO much for putting name idea in bio because I remember finding a cool "opposite of expected" concept... like the intellectual Gremlin in Gremlins 2... but couldn't remember what it was!

glad to see these guys making a comeback!! i absolutely do the same thing with big projects like this so i totally understand why you stepped back for a bit. either way i still LOVE what you've done with the project so far, the 'marketing' is hilarious and i thought what you did with having us host the initial little worm fella was so fun. may the tapeworm live long within us all

if this beast hasn't been claimed yet i'd love to take her :D
