Animal Jam Ideas!

Hey jammers, Ineffable here! Today I'll share some Animal Jam ideas with you guys! Make sure to leave your ideas in the comments below!

Before I actually start this post, I'd like to give some credit to Julian2 for this idea. He has a lot of really creative AJ improvement ideas in one of his recent videos which you can watch right here. Make sure to subscribe to his channel, his videos are so original and he puts a lot of effort into them.

Let's begin with the post!

1. This first idea has been mentioned many times, including once in Julian's video that I linked. A trading auction house would be such a great feature! The person who had the item people wanted to trade for would get the best offer possible, leaving the owner satisfied. And I feel like trading would just be a lot more fun! As if trading isn't already a huge part of the game, players would be a lot more, how do I say this, involved in trading. Although I do see this being the result of some drama/arguments.

2. Although the chances that AJHQ would ever add this in to the game would be extremely unlikely, I think it would be cool if there was a way to travel back to the literal beta days. You wouldn't be able to buy any items, but just explore Jamaa's old land. I really love the old Crystal Sands, to be honest, I prefer it. But AJHQ probably doesn't have all the old files and might not have all the employees that worked for them in the beta testing period.

3. Player profiles would definitely have to be an optional feature in the game. Yes, there is a player card, but players could let others know a bit more about them. You could add your gender (definitely optional) but no real name. Maybe a short bio (which would be verified by AJHQ) and maybe some simple features like your favorite animal, main look, etc.

4. Weather settings would make the game a lot more interesting, and in my opinion, exciting. There would be an icon, maybe like a raindrop or snowflake, and you could control how bright it was outside, the weather, etc. This would be great for making videos and roleplaying and just a fun thing to goof around with.

5. Texture packs would take a loooonggggg time to actually work and make. I don't really play Minecraft anymore, but when I did, I remember texture packs were so awesome! Players could make their own texture packs, submit them to AJHQ and get them verified, and then maybe post a download link on a texture pack website or something.

6. Even though AJHQ has brought us the wonderful 'preview' feature, the appearance of items can still be unpredictable. For example, when walking around Jamaa or doing a certain action the item can be very glitchy (e.g. digs into the animal in unnatural ways which is very disturbing to watch) so maybe you could have a 'test run', like you'd be able to walk around for 20 seconds and test out actions.

7. A wishlist would be something where players could add certain items that other players could view. Then people would know what to trade the owners of items they really want.

Well that's about it for the ideas, I hope you enjoyed them!
