News, Announcements, & Dev Log

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 howmystarias!
![]() | Name: howmystarias Appearance Doll: Fox Guardian AD Guardian: @moonegalactica Give Love! Bio: “Stop right there! I’ve finally got you, thief! Turn around… Slowly.” Mysta is an energetic and mischievous Goatling who loves playing games with his friends! Although he is sometimes anxious about talking to people, especially people he doesn’t know, his close friends love him because he is really fun to be around when you know him well. He is in detective science school, training to be a detective! He is very smart and has solved 14 cases so far. His favorite animal is a fox, his favorite food is fried rice with extra soy sauce, and his favorite video game is league of legends. At first sight he may seem unremarkable and reserved, but when you get to know him better, his true colors show. He is really thoughtful and good at advice, he has a good sense of humor. |

The Token Game is a seasonal event where members trade Goat Tokens for exclusive goodies. Goat Tokens are special coins members can find around the site all year long. They are available in the Diamond Dust shop, from Battle Center Baddys, Random Events, Daily Gachapon (Arcade game), and Gone Fishin (Arcade game). Sometimes they are also given to members as prizes during events and contests.
The Token Game changes with each season (4 games for 4 seasons). Each season a new Guardian will arrive and exchange Goat Tokens for their treasure. The treasure will not retire but will only be available during the appropriate season. For example, the Fall Token game is only open in the Fall. However, MORE treasure will be added each year (new items will have a higher drop rate)! Goat Tokens can be used in every season.
Fall Token Game Schedule = September, October, November
--- --- ---
The Fall Token game is now open! Let's give a quick shout out and thank you to the talented members who contributed their designs this season! What new items do you want to collect the most?

The Monster Box will be filled with Goatlings only, and can be won in the event Raffles! Baleful Boutique will stock some, if not all, Monster Box Goatling loot if applicable.
Because all three boxes will be added to the Diamond Dust shop during the event as well, we ask that members post special permission when entering their designs, such as:

Greetings Fanlings!
September 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 programing updates, taxes, site maintenance, staff payments, and site fees. Our longer term goals also include improving current features, and updating the arcade!
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!

A monthly prompt event based in the official Goatlings.com Discord server!

At the beginning of each month, a Discord moderator will post an inspirational theme. Members wishing to participate can draw or write a short story or poem about a Goatling using the theme as a guide!

At the end of the month, two entries will be randomly selected to be featured on the site News and the members will receive a special in-game trophy!





























The Studio Blu prompt for August was: Stay Hydrated! And the winners are:
@plushycat (Give Love!)
Artist's note: vampvamps jumpscares suzuhiko-hime with his families secret strawberry soda recipe! the package enhances the flavor, even if it looks odd

and dovehound (Give Love!)
A grey-toned goat was sat in front of a lemonade stand outside the battle center.
Despite his sad appearance, he was selling lemonade to goats that were worn out. 50 sugar stars a glass. Or even just a drop of the loot. Safe to say he has SEVERAL bracelets, but he loves em.
Knowing he's helping the other goats and even their owners hydrated? Gave the sad little goat a soft smile.




























Congratulations and thank you everyone for participating!
