ENTER FOR XOPAS#98 🐟👁️   ENTER FOR XATLI #187 🐲💧

You may enter one or multiple of the raffles, upto you! Each time you enter one, you get some currency regardless if you win or not. While we still don't have shops open to spend on just yet, it is our form of thanks for the patience as we work on Planet Xaoc's upcoming ARPG. This raffle will end on August 10th, 2025 of the site's clock. Good luck everyone! 

CHECK JULY 2025 ADOPT BATCH

Designers include DINO, oniteeth, Isabirdart, sauzria, KrookedReality, and ocularguts! Comments will open at site clock's July 22 on 12:00:00 (EDT). Please make sure to read the rules!

🌏 Due to time constraint, I will be setting up the Art Fight 2025 event via comments for now! The system is similar as last time, but with a bit more leniency for this year specifically! The minimum is a bust flatcolored of someone else's Planet Xaoc character on Artfight (this can be an attack, revenge, or friendly fire). You may submit here:

SUBMIT YOUR ARTFIGHT ATTACK

🌏 Afterwards, I will be rewarding users with an award badge + Sacred MYO slot through late July to end of August. You can submit and gain the reward ONLY ONCE! 

🌏 This event will be extended later as an onsite community gifting prompt starting August 3rd to September 1st to compensate the late announcement - which will give me enough time to continue repairing the prompts bin in the meantime.

🌏 Hello, this is ocularguts - thank you for the patience on this update! My main focus moving forward is polishing existing material for Planet Xaoc that is public. This includes the main user interface and lore. Afterwards, I will slowly move onto deeper parts of the site such as prompts, trait lore, and ARPG features. Lastly, adopts and raffle designs will be available here and there to cover site fees!  

🌏 Due to this on-going site overhaul, new MYO design approvals are currently closed until Late August (a month and half from this news post) so I can focus on these updates. Redesigns, transfers, and other forms of site usage is still open.  

🌏 Now onto the main course: the website got a layout refresh! The navigation bar is now sticky when scrolling, and updated with succinct menus. Special thanks to mirarasol for these wonderful assets, and arctusphere for assisting me with interface coding. Available via scrolling down the settings to "Themes" within "Base". We now have a new wallpaper for darkmode and lightmode:

GO TO USER SETTINGS

🌏 Users can now select profile image borders, also found within scrolling at the bottom fo settings! Credits to Twin for these wonderful assets:

🌏 Additionally, we now have a new dashboard, viewable when logged in! Credits to Twin for the button assets and Liwoyadan for assisting me with UX coding. Users are able to see the latest news and quick links to specific areas of the website on this space:

🌏 Other site interface tweaks include the relocation of sidebars to the midsection to lessen clutter! An abundance of thanks to Liwoyadan and arctusphere again for assisting me with UX coding. Evident via the masterlist, sales, and everywhere else - in favor of dropdown menus (also mobile compatible):

🌏 We now have an updated list of terms and definitions, special thanks to MelodicMire and KrookedReality for helping polish this page with me!  

VISIT THE GLOSSARY

🌏 I am gradually refreshing the Frequently Asked Questions page with updated links and answers.  

CHECK (WIP) FAQ

🌏 We have revised our website and design guidelines with clearer wordings and samples (this includes the allowance of Character-Based-Character MYO submissions as well):

UPDATED WEBSITE GUIDE  REFRESHED DESIGN RULES

🌏 We have refreshed the code for emojis entirely (former syntax are now defunct), so do recheck their formatting guide if you are interested in using them onsite. We have new ones made by Twin, have a look! I love them so much.

CHECK EMOTES INFO PAGE

🌏 We have fully refreshed the Guest Artist and Design Donors google forms! If you have submitted to the form before June 2025, we highly recommend re-reading the rules and re-submitting:

UPDATED GA RULES + APP FORM

🌏 The official Planet Xaoc species Anatomy guide has been updated with new lore and specifications:

🌏 First of all, thank you everyone for sticking with me to this day! ;_; Updates are almost always delayed, but announcing specific months genuinely help me squeeze these developments better into my schedule even if it is more than likely that I miss these dates. Truthfully, Planet Xaoc is certainly costly more than profittable, because it still stands to be purely a passion project! I sincerely enjoy updating this website, but I am only able to allot my Sundays (outside of school and daily offline jobs) to work on it. I appreciate the understanding and patience with each update!  

🌏 A lot of the programming side is entirely polished (hence an entire year of no visual updates). The website already includes the following inside its powerhouse of a body (a huge thank you to Liwoyadan again for assisting me with getting all of these working):

1. Masterlist image tab repaired (work in progress, but its better than before).

2. Character Likes are now available onsite! You can like others' masterlist pages, and do so again after 24 hours.

3. Character markets page, Onsite Forums, AND a public drawing board (think Oekaki) are finally functioning!

4. Encounters got added in! This is huge and something I am extremely excited for, as it will be our main "foraging"-style activity on our site. It functions like a simple text and image adventure with options! You get rewards at the end... or unlock site secret and new lore!

5. Character linking is now beta. It should be functioning now, but I will be running more tests later to be sure.

6. Pets extension finally fully work! And pet variants too!

7. Comments hyperlinking @ / username now works.

8. Collections are now functioning and plugged in, which means users will have the ability to showcase specific item collections on the top of their page in the future!

9. Password pages got added in, which will be helpful for Scavenger Hunts events in the future.

10. Rarity icons will be available soon, which will help with accessibility.

11. Random generator is now in, which will help in the future to help others with design ideas + lore canonically naming style!

12. IP-based character labels is added to the masterlist search now.

13. We now have birthday rewards! It's an empty field for now, but users will now get a gift during their birthday on site.

    We now have a functioning crafting system and crafting categories!

14. We finally have admin notifications, which will help me so much keep track of queue load! :-D

🌏 Majority of these are quality of life updates, and especially needing drawn assets. Making the art part is my favorite but I am simply a single body and such takes time. >u< I promise to chip on these features one by one, and keep you all updated! \o/

🌏 That said, here are the following plans and expected due dates:

2025 July 16 > Today's update! The closing of new MYO approvals queue in preparation for upcoming updates. The announcement of how Artfight event will be handled!

2025 July 19 to 21 > New adoptables! The return of monthly free raffles. Artfight 2024 and 2025 badge awards + Sacred MYO slots will slowly come in until event ends!

2025 Late July to rest of the year > Masterlist checks and revisiting rarities! Adding text lore for every single trait of the four species.

🌏 Thank you for the continued support on this website project, much love - ocularguts !
