Alpha Tester Rollover Policy

We've added a page detailing our Alpha Tester Rollover Policy which should help explain anything/everything that will be carrying over on your account for our Beta release!

Your Username and Account ID will be the same for our Beta Launch - those that are looking to get a lower ID in the single or (early) double digits, will be excited to know that we have plans to release these as part of our upcoming Kickstarter! More information on our Kickstarter will be released later on in Alpha Testing, however we have already revealed some of the exclusive prizes on our BuyMeACoffee platform with more on the way!

Pet Name Updates

We have been monitoring and reviewing the feedback and suggestions left by our Alpha Testers onsite and on our Discord Server. After much discussion, thought, deliberation and consideration, we have decided to make pet names non unique during our Beta Launch. We will be adopting a "first edition" system, similar to other games, but with Santae's own unique flair and style ✨ We feel that this decision is the best, and healthiest for the long (and short) term future of Santae as we want to allow every player to express themselves and their pets however they best see fit.

With that being said, Glitched Pet Name Certificates will still be a thing and players will rejoice knowing that you can still create glitched pet names with them, and said names will be subject to the same "first edition" system as any regular pet name, We hope that this will allow players to get creative with their naming combinations!

More information will be released on this in the next few weeks!

Wares from Earth, Space and Beyond!

29 May, 2024

Published by: mj

🔮 The Black Market has Opened... ✨

Hello adventurer, my name is Vespera and I have finished setting up my stall in the Shadow Veil Pass for you to peruse my wares! I have brought my rarest goods from my travels from Earth, Space and Beyond... I will accept sanCoins currency for these precious items. I hear that the exchange rate is 1 USD for 1 sanCoin...

My wares are carefully curated... Here is a brief look into the type of wares available at my stall...

Elemental Ring

World Tree Girdle

Secret Garden

Stealthy Slippers

Siren Necklace

Crown of Empires

Stormcaller Cape

Aurora Veil

Celestial Robe

Arcane Bracers

Titan Gauntlets

Timeless Pendant

Phoenix Vestments

Luminous Companion

Boundless Leaps Boots

With some magic that I learned in my travels, you are able to preview all of the clothing items before you buy them.

I am new to the Valaria and Aleriea areas and am thankful for your early support, so during Alpha Testing, my entire stock is half off for your shopping pleasure, courtesy of my good friends MJ and CJ.

As another added bonus, should you buy at least 1 sanCoin, you will be awarded this Medal for your generosity!

Finally... for a limited time, for every time you buy 5 sanCoins or more (on a new transaction), you will be able to randomly take home one of these three minimals to accompany you on your journey!

Gaiamander

Halosnake

Nebulagon

The wares in my shop are available for a limited time and may be limited in number. You will see new items come to the stall as I come across them in my travels. I am confident that our trading relationship will grow with time, and trust you will stop by whenever you are in the Shadow Veil Pass.

Rest assured that my magic is so strong that all of my wares will roll over into Beta, including your sanCoin balance and your Early Supporter Medal. This is subject to the same policy as other Alpha Testing items -- the adventurer that possesses the item at the end of Alpha will be the one to get reissued the item.

Thank you, Santarian, for your sanCoins will be spent bettering the Santae world for us all!

Alpha Tester Prize Policy

At the end of Alpha Testing, we will be wiping all player accounts, but keeping log of select items. pets, rewards that will be re-issued during Beta. Anything with the name "Alpha" in it - item, trophy, avatar, etc will be re-issued, along with any items won during Official Contests held onsite or on our Discord Server.

If Player A sells their prizes to player B, then Player A will not have their prizes re-issued for Beta -- Player B will receive them because they own the items at the end of Alpha Testing.

On a similar note, Divine Common Blepp Figurines and Divine Common Wispyr Figurines (from our referral contests) will be re-issued to those that own the item or a Blepp pet at the end of Alpha Testing. Once the Divine figurine is used, it will become a Common figurine, which is a regular item that is not limited to Alpha Testing that will not be re-issued.

Getting Acquainted With Santae

We carefully hand selected you to be an Alpha Tester to provide invaluable, unbiased feedback which will aid in the games future development! On that note, we ask all testers to remember that this is just the beginning of our game, and not the final product we intend to put out to the public. Please bear in mind that the game will have bugs/glitches and errors - we are counting on you to report these, and encourage you to do your best to break our game so that we can make the appropriate future proofing!

With that said, we encourage you to get yourselves acquainted with our Terms and Conditions which apply to all users and staff. While we encourage users to seek out glitches/bugs and errors, those found to be blatantly exploiting them for personal gain and not reporting them will be punished appropriately, and may forfeit their account, along with not being invited back for future testing/releases.

Bugs/Glitches & Errors

As stated, we expect things to break! Here's some helpful info on how/where to report these things!

• Bugs are things like a user being able to play a game an infinite amount of times without a cooldown timer, or you are doing a quest and try to turn in the item but it won't let you for some reason -- functionality issues!

• Glitches are when a user can create more than the current pet limit (which is 8, but may increase with the use of a certain item...) or read another player's pet a book -- more functionality issues!

• Errors are messages you may see like "Error, contact staff!" "500 Server error" "404 this page doesn't exist" along with broken images, spelling mistakes, and aesthetic stuff like images stretching off the page.

How to Report + Find Out What Has Already Been Reported

Our Forums are the best place to make + view already reported matters - Please refer to our Bugs, Glitches & Errors Subforums when making a report - be sure to do your best to put them into the appropriate locations, as it will help our Management and Programmers immensely!

We ask that if the site needs to be shut down at any point for immediate/emergency maintenance that testers stay calm and patient while we work through the issues, and do our best to get the site back up as soon as possible for everyone! Please note that Major Issues will be reported to all users via our Notification System + communicated effectively on our Discord Server.

We hope you are as excited as we are to welcome our new Alpha Testers that are joining our amazing current Alpha Testers. Together we will work towards an even greater PetSite and create a wonderful community for us all to enjoy!
