This update brings new MiniPets, Accessories, and Decorations (M.A.D) just in time for the Lunar New Year. 🏮




You can now call your pets to you when they wander too far! With the new Whistle Controller, you can easily call them back to the center of your house. Here’s how it works:

1. Right-click anywhere and bring up the Radial Controller
   
2. Left-click the whistle icon
   
3. Then left-click anywhere again to call your pets. This will spawn them right back at the center.
   

You can now bring your Weyrdlets to life! This is how you can order a 3D printed collectible of your beloved Weyrdlets!

1. Open the customization menu.
   
2. Customize your pet and choose your favorite pose.
   
3. Ensure everything you want to print is within the frame.
   
4. Press "Order IGC"
   
5. Visit their website to complete your print!
   

Disclaimer: Weyrdlets is solely a customization and 360-capture hub for IGC. For any issues related to orders such as payment, production, shipping, delivery or if you’d like more information before placing an order, please contact IGC at [email protected] directly for assistance




We heard you! First was the presets for your islands, now for your pets! You can save your pet's accessory and sticker placements just like how you do it with your island. Presets can also be applied to pets of the same species!

P.S. These presets are only applicable to pets of the same species. Eg., if Preset 1 was on a Wagyu, then you can apply the preset to another Wagyu and not a Mochi or a Gyoza.
