Description
Guy's look what game i found. It's in Beta and can be played. You take the role of a female cougar. In the beta version your cub is already a couple of months old i think, as it's left the den and roams with you. But most likely in the final release they'd probably have newborn versions. Its a animal simulation. The buttons are quite easy to get used to, but the camera can somewhat be a pain sometimes. You can hunt, stalk, fight and carry. You can drag dead prey to your cub or carry your cub to the kill or even just call your cub to the kill.Here is there site. You can download the game from there.

Keep in mind, Even though the game can be fun at times. There's a bug that i've come across that completely breaks the game.
And that is, No male spawning after the cubs have grown up and left. Sadly, that means, No matter how many times you reload your save, you can't have more offspring. And the mother cougar you worked your butt off getting her stats up becomes obsolete. You can't breed so what's the point of continuing. The only option is to scrap that save, once you have that bug and start again. With a fresh female with default stats.
Though i think this bug is related to not raising the entire litter to adulthood. So save often, and if a cub dies, Reload the save. I had no issue when doing that until i decided to play it as, "if they died they died". That's when the game messed up for me.
I reported it to the developer and they've not bothered to fix. So it sounds like they've now abandoned that game and possibly working on another.Β

Wat, is it normal to have more than 1 cub in the game? I've ended up with two after 5+ hours of playing it and I'm VERY confused! ;-;

I think your supposed to only have 1 since the game isn't complete yet. When the game is done the other cubs should be added then. Not sure if it's a glitch or not. But according to their comment's a nice update is going to be announced soon. Quote:Β Thank you, the updated beta version 2.1 will soon be announced, it includes most of the promised features for Untamed:Life of a Cougar.

Thank you for clearing all this stuff up c: thats enough questions from me now x3
I can't wait till this game gets updated, it has so much potential and I'd reckon it could become a VERY popular sim game out there x3 Kinda sad there isnt much around the internet :/ I'm a huge fan of the animal, surviving thing.

O_O so you don't know about shelter 2 then?Β
It's out on steam on the 9th march 2015. ^^ not long now i'm so excited. It's pretty cheap too.
Someone was able to get a early access of it. She's only released part 1 and 2. Part 3 comes out tomorrow.

How is your horse simulation getting on? C:

Unleashed89 In reply to scar111 [2015-03-01 00:13:41 +0000 UTC]
you just roar at it. The same way you get it to come to you when you've caught dinner. Look directly at it and roar. It'll stop following you and stay in that area. It'll still move around. But keep in mind, before you head off searching for food, check your surroundings. Foxes or other predators may try and kill it. The horse simulation game is on a somewhat hold. I'm learning more with unity and i need to learn more coding as well as learning how to properly animate. I'm a perfectionist at times, if i don't like a animation i'll scrap it and re-do it. But i've still got a huge animal list to do as well, so i may have the body to rig still for the horse but other models have been completed since then. I'm messing with a hare game, to see if i can get it running. Just to get some practice. Once i've learnt enough, i'll Start continuing on the horse sim. It's hard work though, and is proving to be a pain in the backside XD.

Thank you very much! also do you know why my cougar 'Jumps' to the side? if so how do i stop it? it tends to happen in fights and it is VERY annoying!
Well its nice to hear you havent gave up! a lot of unity makers are simply to lazy but its very nice to see after this time your still trying to do it! Please, notify me when you get the hare game up. (If your planning on uploading it of course as I would be interested!) And especially tell me if you get the horse sim done!

i'll let you know. Your most likely in attack mode. Hit T, that's to get in and out of attack mode. Attack mode is mainly good for Attacking and taking down eagles.

From what you have here in this screenshot it seems veeeeeery much still in it's roots, I'm not sure if it's worth to try out right now but this could be the next best game in animal simulations. (No, I don't count goat simulator since it's more of a parody)

i was in the plains in the picture. The game is still in beta, but its still fun to play.
Look at this, it's the trailer, though in the beta the animations have been upgraded.Β

Hmm well I decided to play it and honestly, it's not much better than wolfquest, it's less buggy but the combat is way too easy and the food levels drop way too quickly, not to mention there is no goal other than feed your cub. I will keep an eye on it and see how it develops further but for now I'd rather not play it for any longer than 20 mins.. a month. Anyways! I'm glad it's getting more attention, the more people the more feedback it can get and fix what needs to be fixed

i did say it's in beta. When WQ was in Beta it had way less than this did. It didn't even have pups or mates in. All you got to do was roam, feed yourself and randomly attack coyotes,hares and female elk. I think bears weren't even included. This has so much in a small amount of time. WQ is overrated in my opinion. They complained about not being able to add this and that in because of funding issues. This person has been able to do it without much funding. WQ is too mild and restricting in my opinion, they put too many rules down for multiplayer and made it so that the older mature player's couldn't actually enjoy a proper wildlife simulation because it would have been too bad for kids. The reason why i ever played wolfquest because i thought it would be just like the old WOLF game but in 3d, but WQ is just not worth mentioning as a Wildlife simulation, It's way too easy. This game has a difficult setting. Haven't tested it yet but so far, it's staying true to a Wildlife Simulation. A Wildlife simulation is just basically a game where you play the life of a animal. And to be honest i don't really understand what you mean by "no Goals". This game does have a goal. Just because it doesn't give you missions like wolfquest doesn't mean it doesn't have goals. Your goal in the game is to survive and protect your cub, until it's old enough to go off on it's own and repeat that cycle. That's a wildlife simulation, it's what animals do in the wild. Strive to breed and raise offspring until adulthood and then they repeat the cycle. Wildlife Simulations shouldn't have missions. I prefer to make my own goals in the game and if i make a mistake and it costs the life of my cub then that's just the way things are. It means i'll Learn from my mistakes and try not to repeat it again.
That's what i plan to do for my own Wildlife Simulation games. They won't be for kids. They'll be for older players, because there's no way that i'm ruining the experience that player's will get when seeing the world as a animal and how difficult it would be just for kids parent's to complain that the killing or death scene's are too graphic for their kids. I want to stay true as possible to the laws of nature. A world that makes you decide what you do next and every decision will have a positive or negative effect. The player's should decide how they want to experience the game not the game setting rules down, by telling you that you need to do this and that just to unlock something new. A game that won't be easy to play and if the character dies, It's dead for good. So players will actually fear predators.

Speaking of WQ, if my memory serves me right the people who created it aren't even game creators, they had to hire staff and pay for the work, I imagine it wasn't cheap so the thing that they aren't experienced enough in creating games and had to pay for all of it I fully understand why it was so slow in adding all the features.
By goals I mean that as of now there is only two goals, kill and eat, the game works it's way too quickly and makes it feel tooΒ repetitive for a simulation, in my opinion there should be small pointers to what you can and cannot do, for example when I started my game and all I knew you can do is kill and eat (picking up the cub is pretty useless as of now, and so are the dens.), are there any uses for the den? Will my cub ever grow up? How long will I have to keep it up with the constant killing and stuffing your mouth? The hunger drops way too quickly and you cannot have a breather after just hunting an animal. Also, I'm not a cougar expert but do they actually eat wolves and foxes? In other words when making a game you should give at least some hints to what your goals can be because currently it just reminds me more of the game Lif where all you do is kill, eat, kill, eat, kill, eat- and all it is is just more of an arcade game trying to reach the highest points.
Oh and I did not say anything about it being too hard or graphical, just that the fast pacing of kill and eat ruin the experience since that process take much more time than what it is shown here.

Unleashed89 In reply to Donomah [2014-12-06 18:22:14 +0000 UTC]
i agree with you, it is fast pace, but it is in beta. Carrying your cub from what i've learnt stops the foxes getting at it. But doesn't stop the bears and wolves etc. The den's are safe zones, but not 100% safe. In the future the dens will probably be a place to give birth and raise it for a couple of months until it's able to roam with you. The reason why the cub doesn't age is because they've not added it in yet. Eventually they will and hopefully will be able to have litter after litter once the previous litter grows, unlike wq where they've forced players to not experience raising newborns till adulthood. Right now, yes it's repetitive, but in the future it will be way better than WQ. That's if they keep up with what they've said they wanted to add into the game. Im not a cougar expert either, but there's probably times where a cougar would eat wolves and foxes if it's starving to death. It's not uncommon. I've seen a male lion kill and eat a hyena because he couldn't catch any prey.

I do believe they will add much more than WQ team did to their game but I only mentioned what could be done better as of now even if beta is still a very early part of game development.

well put it this way, I managed to make a somewhat game on unity within 2 days. And i suck at C++ coding. Still has a long way to go though. But game making is hard and frustrating even if you've done it before as if 1 thing goes smoothly in the past it doesn't mean it will go smoothly next time. Game making can be unpredictable and can really put a lot of pressure on someone. Shame, i would help them if i could but i'm still a novice with unity3d myself.

I don't know much about how unity and coding works so I guess you know better and speaking of helping maybe you could contact them anyways? It's still much better if 2 people would work on a game even if you're still a novice, that is if you have time for it. Just an idea.

at the moment i'm learning to get myself better. That's why i'm making a base game where you play as a hare so i can get used to the coding and things needed to earn some experience before i try something harder as a Horse MMORPG. Takes up alot of my time. I also have a ton of pet rats lol. Well only 13. I clean their large cages twice a week, which nearly takes 2 hours. Love them though. So jumping back and forth could be a lot of work. However i don't mind making them so animal meshes if that's what they need. I might just get in touch with them to see if they'll like a helping hand.

Lol yeah 13. Started off with 4 boys. Got 2 girls, bred them and kept most of thei babies, the others I wasn't allowed to keep, I made sure I found nice homes for. They're crazy. They somewhat act like dogs. They get so excited in the morning when I get up to see them, they bounce around at the cage door. But yeah building a game with 1 or 2 people is hard work, and can get very stressing specially if you make a release date and soon realise that you won't make it. Even huge teams will feel the pressure.

XD my mother is afraid of rats. Well the tails. She finds their face cute. But she held the fluffy babies when they got older and she even held one of my adult girls which is a improvement. Axel, one of my males are very cheeky, he likes getting let out in the morning, only to run up his cage, climb along his door to see my sister in her bed. He pats her on the face with his front paws to get her up, if she stirs he ignores her and starts playing on her bed. If she rolls back over he comes right back and starts patting her belly to get her up. He doesn't like it when she's going to sleep and he want's to play. Mine always make me smile and giggle. Just this morning axel was waiting at his cage door, doing his excited little dance. They used to play charge me, pounce my hand, wait for me to ruffle up their fur on their head, Run away as fast as they can only to come charging back. They're almost a year old so it's getting alittle rare to see them play charge me now though. Best pets ever. Hate the short life spans, going to dread it when they all start dying.

Oh wow they seem to have a lot of personality, hamsters are somewhat different... Tho I do remember them being clever enough to open up their cages haha and one of them really hated a carrot plushie around the same size by attacking it. It's very sad when they go since in that short of time you feel like you only start to get to know them well, that's probably why I never kept more rodents after those two. (I had a rabbit before.)

well i do adore animals. Even want to go horse riding one day. I've had, Hamsters, Guinea pigs, Rabbits, Rats and now a Cat. All my own. Surprising i'm still living with my parents lol. Dad give in and allowed me to get a kitty, even though i'm more of a dog person. When i asked for another dog he said nope because he was sick of cleaning up after my mams dogs. I said, "my dog, My responsibility" and he still said no. So as a joke i said "Well can i have a cat then?". His answer was yes. Bailey was so cute coming through that door screaming while clinging to this guys shirt. Now he's a sweet guy but still has his moments when he wants your attention and aren't giving him it. He goes crazy. Stalks mam's cat, then while were watching jumps on a cabinet that he's not allowed on so i'll get up and tell him to get down. He jumps off and runs for the stairs. If i follow him he'll lead me to my room so he can go to bed.Acts up to get what he wants..

Ah I see, as for myself I had quite a few animals as well, as far as I can remember one of the first pet I had was a dog, then we got 2 little rabbits and an injured seagull on the road almost at the same time, it flew away once it felt better tho since we fed it and kept it out of danger. Then I got a canary, I loved that little guy so much and his morning singing was so beautiful if we left his cage without a cloth over it (So he wouldn't know if it's day or night haha) but my grandmother got a cat and my canary escaped the cage because of it, I was really heart broken after that but still loved her cat for some reason, I still was young so I'm a little surprised that I understood it was barely the cats fault. I had a few other dogs as well but they all ended up in my other grandmothers farm to be as guard dogs where she had all sorts of animals like a horse and pigs, but my fave were the cows and chicken lol. Ah I have got a little out of hand with my story telling... wasn't expecting to write this much about them.. Anyways, what I wanted to say is that now I have a cat which was sooo shy and cowardly that we could find her out from under the bed or other small spaces only at night but now she's the most vocal cat I have seen, very clever and loves to interact with me, mostly in vocal but since I have looked into the body language of cats I love toΒ experiment with her reactions to certain movements or such... I never knew I was a cat person before this cat even if I had 2 before. (Well, the grandma's cat and another one of mine.) Animals are really something great, they make your daily life so much more interesting and even if they don't understand it, they can be a perfect mood lifter.

Unleashed89 In reply to Donomah [2014-12-10 15:16:48 +0000 UTC]
i absolutely agree with you. Everything you've said about animals being the perfect mood lifter is exactly how i see them as. Don't worry about getting carried away when talking about your pets, i do all the time. Normally once i get started i'm hard to stop. They're apart of my family and i wouldn't let anyone hurt them. I can be a softy when it comes to them. I've only ever had dogs my whole life. 2 Rough collies. Bailey is my first cat and honestly didn't know what the hell i was doing with him, Couldn't pet him at first because he was too small. Playing with a kitten was way different then playing with a dog. But i used a tiny bit of dog psychology on him as a kitten and it has worked wonders. He's respectful, Still comes into my space and i always shower him with affection, but when he knows he's done something he shouldn't have he knows about it when he gets wrong. I never raise my hand to him though i just tell him firmly, like if he wants to go outside late at night which i don't like because there's foxes over here, i just tell him bed. He gives me the dirty look, but the second i click my finger's he walks straight into the sittingroom and jumps onto the chair to go to bed. He doesn't like sitting on people either. Which is odd because my sister's cats were all over me when i went to hers. He used to be a little sh*t. In my old room he used to love hogging my bed. But this time he decided to come in on the morning when im still out of it. What does he do....Jumps on my stomach, slightly winding me. Of course i jump up, with fright.....guess what he does, Sizes me up like i'm another cat and poke's me in the eye with his paw. Claws weren't out. He had no intention of using claws. I guess we both got startled. Told him off though. Never did it again. And the time when he was a kitten and only had him for a few days. Everyone was getting used to having a cat in the house, well bailey being bailey went into my parent's room. There was a wooden storage box at the bottom of their bed. Bailey jumped on that and saw my dad's toe over the edge....what does he do. He's bites it. My dad jumped up screaming and bailey high tailed it out of there. He's frightened of my dad, we think it's because of his slippers. When my dad walks with his slippers on they make a loud noise and bailey keeps out of his way, but when my dad wear's no slippers he won't budge. But when my dad falls a sleep on the couch, bailey works up the courage to go sniff his head, i swear i caught him once going to smack my dad over the head, only because he knew that my dad was a sleep.

Yeah cats are quite different but for some reason I am much braver with cats than dogs, for example I know how to handle an aggressive cat, how to hold it to not make it mad or feel insecure and with a dog I'm completely lost, they are much more active and don't respond to body language that well, instead they listen more to your voice tone and treats. Now I don't know if that was okay to do but with my cat, since she hated to be held I just picked her up anyways everyday for at least a few seconds, I got her used to belly petting, which she hated and used to scratch you but now she's all like "take me! Pet me!" I guess she was just insecure and unsure if we will harm her or not, now I cannot get her off of me, she's always either on my stomach, arms (is using my laptop), legs or even shoulders. Speaking of shoulders, she LOVES to sit there while I walk around minding my own business, she's like a little pirate's parrot in cartoons haha. As for the biting thing, I get that a lot too, she's just born to hunt but for that reason I clip her nails every week or two with special cat nail clippers, only the front ones tho and now she almost never does that to me since whenever she "catches" my toe I don't freak out, therefore there is no fun to grab it for her. If you want him to be cuddlier maybe try to just lay down next to where he is? Cats feel safer and friendlier when you are their size and if he approaches you just don't do quick movements, show him that you do not mind him sniffing your nose or wherever he wants to sniff lol, slow blinking also helps or just barely closing your eyes as if you're about to fall asleep, this to them means that you are relaxed around him and might lay down closer or on you after few times. Also since cats have higher base temperature they love your body warmth, or anything that is warm for that matter.. If he sees that you are warm and don't freak out whenever he climbs on you, he might stay but I must admit that the "leap of faith" onto your stomach needs some getting used to, I also had to get used to my cats kneading all the time, it's painful but very sweet of her since such action shows that the cat thinks of you as.. uh.. let's say a family member since little kittens do that to their mothers stomach to get milk, they just forget why they are doing it after awhile xD Also if your cat isn't neutered that might be why he bites since he still feels like "a manly wild feline" and "needs" to catch prey.

he's neutered. He doesn't bite now but did when he was a kitten as people thought it would be fun to rough house with him using their hands. Bad mistake, but me and my sis broke him of that biting habit. He's pretty laid back, but the only reason why he's not cuddly is because he loves exploring outside. He would rather do that then sit in. But after his somewhat accident outside he's become very loving and always wanting a stroke. All i get now is constant headbutts of him. A few month ago he didn't come home. Me and my sister were very worried as it wasn't like him to miss his dinner. He was always practically on time. He was missing for at least 2 days straight before we put up a missing ad. I searched for him constantly, shouting his name as he comes when called. But there was no sign of him. A couple of days later, my dad opened my door and let him in my room. He said that he was sitting on the window ledge waiting to get let in. When we let him in we noticed he was in pain and his Right eye was swollen. It was late at night when he came home so we had to wait until morning to take him to the vet. When we did though the vet give us antibiotics and painkillers and told us to come back in a couple of days if the swelling goes down. Which it did. When she checked him over she said that he had a cut in his mouth which got infected. He's healthy now and for some reason he's somewhat changed. From a somewhat distant roaming cat he's become clingy. Loves to be petted, Follows me and my sis everywhere and constantly sleeps in our room. He has his own bed ^^. He does still go out but not far anymore. I think he might have gotten into a fight with another cat. There's a couple of toms around here that aren't neutered.

That might explain why he changed like that, he probably got chased out of another males "territory" and now he's all like "Nope, I'm done! Never going near that place again!". There are a bunch of male cats here too and my grandmothers cat (Also a boy, and not the one I talked about erlier) once got in such a bad fight that he could barely walk from injuries on the back legs, all of his paws were very sensitive and he would hiss at any touch but now he's somewhat better, still likes to leave tho but I did notice he comes back more often since the cat that probably attacked him was a much larger, fluffy black cat that we saw a few times around our house and he did once got in a fight with ours before that serious battle.. But some people around here aren't that friendly to animals in general so I never let my cat outside without a leash, our old dog once got loose and ran off, he came back with swollen neck at the back and we heard some other people complain about their dogs limping or such. No one knows who does that but it wasn't another dog, there are no large enough dogs here to do that and the injuries don't even have bite marks or anything like that.

sounds horrible. They are some horrible twisted people out there. From what i read on a facebook page, a woman had several cats, 1 came home sick and she was planning to take him to the vets, though it sadly died through the night. But her other cats 1 by 1 showed the same signs and another one died after getting put down at the vets. I think she was on her last cat, when she starting noticing the same signs of the sickness that killed the others. It was at the beginning which was lucky for that cat. Got it tested and treated. Turned out someone was feeding her cats antifreeze. When she told a neighbour about 2 doors down she said her cat suddenly died as well. The Neighbour said she saw the middle neighbour (if this makes sense) put something at the top of his garden. When they went to look it was tuna on a plate. They took a sample and took it to the vets for a test. When the tests came back it said it had antifreeze in it. They took him to court apparently. I think he got off with it though because he was old. How inhumane is that. I would have locked that guy up so that he couldn't poison anymore cats.

I don't understand how someone can get away for killing other people's pets, everyone seems to treat animals like mere objects when it comes to law it seems. Ugh.

i know what you mean, Sick isn't it. In the UK right now there's been a lot of dog thefts. People coming into your backyard and stealing your dog. Some have the balls to knock on your door pretending to be a salesman, while his friend sneaks around the back to get the dogs. We don't know if they're using them for dog fighting or what. But the UK public aren't having any of it and soon hopefully will get to the bottom of it.

yeah i heard about that too. I couldn't eat them. I think they're stealing them to use them for dog bait, so they can have their own sport. Never heard of a dog fighting sport in the UK, only in the US. Pit Bulls are banned over here so they can't use those ones. And if pit bulls are found in the UK they must have a muzzle on when outside at all times or get put down. Shame, because i actually like pit bulls. They're so misunderstood. That or they're stealing them and selling them on to make money. That would make some money.

Ah, I don't know much about dog breed bans here but yeah, everyone makes it look like pit bulls are the worst dogs ever for a family, I heard they are quite friendly. I mean seriously don't treat it like sh** and it won't bite you.

exactly, Dogs act how they've been either trained or learnt by everyday human contact. If a person treats the dog well and give it love and affection it will give you that back. If you treat it like crap and smack it around there's a hell of a good chance it's going to bite and end up getting put down as it's deemed 'Dangerous' by the owners. I've been learning dog behaviour so when i walk down a street and notice a dog's body behaviour it can tell you alot on how it's treated at home. Did you know that if a dog walks in front of the owner on the leash the dog is classed itself as the leader of it's human pack? But if a dog walks by your side, your the one in control.

Oh wow I did not know that, but since we never trained dogs I'm not that surprised I don't know much about them, not to mention I don't have the nerves or patience to train one before I snap and drop everything I started. I guess I'm just not that kind of person to own a dog and be a truly good owner.

i love dogs but im stuck on what breed to get when i move out. I grew up with rough collies and hope to get them in the future. But i also like Huskies, Malamutes, german shepherds, Japanese Akita's, Rottweilers and dobermans. There's more but there's no point me listing them all lol. But 1 of my dogs will be a rough collie, may also get a German Shepherd as well though.Β

I say get a breed with which you would be most comfortable, after all dog breeds do have different requirements for them, one might need to be more active, other might need more company and so on, it's not much but even little things could change the way you go about your daily life. I used to have a favorite breed, German Shepherds and even if they still are beautiful dogs I sort of just go by the dog itself and don't care much about if it is mixed breed or pure. Then again I doubt I will have a dog ever again.

since i've had rough collies before i will most likely get one, however if i go to a shelter instead i'd pick a dog that seems calm and relaxed. A hyper dog bouncing dog shows that it will be too hyperactive and might not listen well to commands. A calm and relaxed one is something i'd go for.Β

The person that made it played wolfquest, they mentioned that they were disappointed with the lack of games out there like wolfquest and decided to make their own. They have a few video's on youtube as well. So far there's not much to do other than roam, fight predators, kill prey including bison and taking care of your cub. But so far it has a lot of promise. I find it better than wolfquest. Β Wolfquest got boring because it was very restricting, the hunting was easy and prey's AI wasn't that good. This one the deer's are swift, you have to come up behind them carefully otherwise they'd notice you and run. The moose attack you if you stalk them head on, but i've noticed that they flee if you kind of sneak then sprint at them. The bears are easy to kill at the moment, Eagle's are fun to kill. They fly around above you, then diving down to you and thats when you have to pounce them. Foxes target your cub and for some reason whenever a predator comes over, my motherly instinct comes out to the surface and i end up becoming aggressive. I've never felt the need to protect a NPC Baby animal before. On wolfquest i wasn't that protective, but on this game i'm very protective.... You can call for your cub too, it sounds really cute. They'll most likely give you more cubs eventually, when the game gets out of beta, but for now you only have one. If you read what they've put on their site you'll get the whole idea on what they're going for. They mentioned a multiplayer, but i think they're unsure at the moment on if they'll add it or not.
