You know how some universities give a week long reading break so the students can actually sleep for once catch up on class material? I propose sso gets a two week long bug break where they can catch up on bug fixes.

How the quest should have gone

Donald the builder: Listen, I’m a bit scared of heights. I know it’s embarrassing for a fully grown professional to admit, but I need someone to ride out there and inspect this bridge for me, do you think you could do that?

MC: Oh. Uh, sure?

MC: *Rides out and spends a good few minutes trotting across the bridge, looking at the support pillars, testing the rails and inspecting the planks*

Donald: So? How’s it look?

MC: I don’t know shit about construction.

God, the Paint Horse animations are so good it makes me wish they could be added to the AQHs, like having a ‘reining’ and a ‘normal’ mode?

I know would be impossible but now we have a comparison point with another Western breed, the AQH headset looks even weirder to me??? I get that it’s a particular style of riding and that SSO animated it really well, but I know v few horses that go around with their heads at knee height

@jorvik-gazette-news​ #i mean yea#i swoop this app/site open and check my fellow jorvik people#It's like walking to your backyard dock in the morning- tea cup in 1 hand#Sunrise is beautiful and you see your neighbour come out to pick their mail-#you wave them morning as you see in the corner of your eye#that 2 other neighbours are fighting with each other while some rando jogs through the hood without shirt on

I’m not trying to dress my sso character like a proper equestrian, I’m trying to dress them like a worn out young adventurer who was declared the chosen one by the village elder and was sent on an epic life-endangering quest to save the world

[sso-mysteries]

SSO I'll say this once:

We need more fantasy/medieval inspired clothes. I want to wear a cloak and ride around in armoured leggings and boots and have a circlet of gold on my brow as I ride my charger into battle

I’ve been soooo excited to wait for this post to go live, seeing everyone’s reaction to it makes my heart go 🥰 I was especially excited for Rocco & Juniper to be canonized, because omg I’ve stanned them since day 1. Here’s some insight into the development of these 2 lovebird horses:

A while back I read this article about these two gay horses and I couldn’t get it off my mind. When the development of Wildwoods came around, the team knew we wanted to write a love story between two horses separated by herds, unable to be together a la Romeo & Juliet.

But then we thought… Why not gay horses? So, Rocco and Juniper became a thing.

The letters they sent to each other via squirrel courier, the mentions of each other in their bios, their names correlating with the timeless love story they were partially inspired by (Romeo/Rocco and Juliet/Juniper) were all part of building the subtle love story.

That also explains the typo of Juniper as Julian, as in the early stages of development he was referred to as Julian.

Happy Pride month, everyone. Jorvik loves all heroes ❤️

I thought about it and IT’S LIKE THE HORSE-WITH-DOG-MOUTH THING THAT WAS GOING AROUND A WHILE BACK. I am horrified.
