News, Announcements, & Dev Log
Greetings Fanlings!
February Support Boxes are now available at the Community Center.
In addition to our classic (Dawn/Twilight/Dusk) Support Boxes, we are introducing a brand new set of Support Boxes! The new box themes are Eclipse Flight, Rainbow Flight, and Solar Flight. Availability of classic and new Support Boxes will rotate every month.
Support Box Schedule
January - classic set
February - new set
March - classic set
April - new set
May - classic set
June - new set
July - classic set
August - new set
September - classic set
October - new set
November - classic set
December - new set
In order to keep the amount of boxes released a year consistent for classic boxes, the maximum amount of boxes members can obtain a month have increased from 1 to 2.
Monthly Support goals are mini fundraisers that help with general behind-the-scenes expenses such as small program updates, taxes, site maintenance, staff payments, and site fees. Our longer term goals also include taking on more help, improving current features, and upgrading the arcade with the help of our two new programmers!
Monthly Support also helps to keep the site ad free, and sneak peeks free on social media.
Three Support Boxes are available each month on rotation; Dawn Lucky Box, Twilight Lucky Box, and Dusk Lucky Box will be available for one month, and Eclipse Lucky Box, Rainbow Lucky Box, and Solar Lucky box will be available the next (and so on and so forth). Members can receive up to two of each unique Support Boxes during each new month’s support period - regardless of how much is donated.
These mini fundraisers will be reset at the start of each month, allowing members who donate to receive up to 6 new boxes a month. Support Box(es) will be added to the members account automatically as soon as a donation is made.
Thank you for your support!

Welcome to Goatling Spotlight! A mini event where we get to show off your favorite Goatlings! Each week a new Goatling will be featured in the News and the owner will receive a shiny Spotlight Trophy to display on their pets page or in their collection. This week is all about RoyalRoy!
 | Name: RoyalRoy Appearance Doll: Badger witch AD Guardian: @SunnyGoat Give Love! Bio: Roy always has been matter-of-fact, kindhearted and caring. He is never seen without his best friend, Coco by his side. He tries so hard to crack a funny joke that other goats feel sorry for him! |
Favorite Treasure
Frog | Heart cactus
Short Story
Roy found it hard to leave Coco. But his Aunt Crabby had told him that she could only handle feeding one extra mouth for the weekend. Roy sighed and picked up his suitcase. "Hope you have fun." Coco said sadly. Roy felt his heart crumble. "I will." he walked away slowly. Somehow Hawaii sounded more fun with Coco by his side. He was halfway to the airport when the thought hit him. Somehow, whatever Aunt Crabby said didn't matter. He would find a way to make sure Coco could come with him. He quickly turned around his car and drove full speed to Palace Town. He was going to get Coco!
