Staff is currently testing out the new Egg Marketplace, and the final touches will be in progress soon. Our goal is to release it shortly after this is finished.
Today I’d like to share more details about the future plans for the Hatchery! This post will be covering all the main points.

⚡❗ The information below is still in its early stages of development.
The images you see here are mock-up sketches that help present the overall concept of the hatchery itself and how hatching eggs will work. Details here can and likely will change before its official release.
Also be aware that this new version of the hatchery will not be created until after the foundations of the new website have been made. We want to share this with you early to ensure the concept is solid when that time comes.
Overview
Rescreatu is a futuristic universe where we can travel between planets.
The advanced technology of an average person’s Hatchery provides all the basic care that their eggs need, and therefore eggs can be hatched without being incubated. This becomes our current hatch system as the default setup.
The Incubator becomes a special prep area for bettering your eggs’ color-hatching odds (among others)!
This allows you to strategize and influence the outcome of your hatches.
👇 Below covers these aspects in more detail:
The New Hatchery
Your hatchery takes care of all your eggs’ basic needs. The incubator allows you to strategize and influence the outcome of your hatches.
Casual Hatching
Incubation is not required. No more waiting to hatch your daily eggs!
The Incubator
The incubator is an extra feature that’s not required to hatch eggs. Hatching eggs within the incubator gives you extra perk options, if you wish.
Incubating Eggs
When an egg is incubated, it guarantees it will not hatch a natural. Once started, eggs are locked-in for the entire incubation period.
Incubator Slots
The incubator has a limited amount of space for eggs to be incubated. The number of slots you have unlocked (permanent) also represents the total number of hatches you can do each day.
Unlockable Incubator Slots
You start with 3 slots by default and can unlock 2 more with tu for a total of 5. Premium accounts unlock 1 more slot for a total of 6 slots.
Attach Boons to Eggs
Use specific boon items to add that Boon permanently to an egg before incubation begins to increase its odds. These egg boon items can be bought, obtained, or made yourself. There are 3 kinds of boons you can choose from.
Boons
Color boons increase the chance for a certain hatch color. A Double boon increases the chance of hatching two Creatu from a single egg of a different color. Mutant boon increases the chance for a mutant Creatu.
Optimized Boons
Optimize your boon eggs when putting the same boon on all incubator slots at once. Optimized Boon Eggs give a slightly higher chance increase than regular boon eggs.
Incubator Energy
Using the incubator costs energy, whether incubating eggs or hatching eggs within the incubator for additional perks. Cooldown periods are reduced by cleaning and resupplying the hatchery.
Incubator Hatching Perks
Hatching eggs placed within the incubator gives you additional perks at the cost of energy. The “Cozy Placement” perk slightly increases the chance your hatch will not be a natural. The “Twins” perk increases the chance your hatch will give you twins of the same color.
Hatch Bonus Meter
Consecutively hatching eggs that have the same Boon increases a Hatch Bonus meter, giving your boon eggs even better chances! The meter resets once your boon has been granted.
Daily Rewards Bonus
Complete this new Daily Rewards tier for another increased chance for Twins on your hatches for that day. The current tier for one extra hatch will replace this new daily perk. This bonus can stack with the Twins perk from hatching within the incubator.
Egg Ages and Mutants
Hatching mutants will now only hatch from Old eggs by default. Spoiled eggs will not be hatchable and will become a utility for making Boon Items. Spoiled eggs make your hatchery dirty, slowing down the cooldown time of your incubator’s energy restoration.
Combining Tactics
Choose your strategy based on what you’re going for.
Examples: To potentially get 3 babies from one hatch, build your Hatch Bonus meter by hatching Double Boon eggs in combination with the Daily Rewards bonus and incubation hatching (for a higher chance for twins)!
To potentially get 2 albinos from one hatch, build your meter by hatching Albino boon eggs in combo with the same twins-increasing options!
CS Creatu
Incubating, boons, perks, and bonuses for Cash Shop pets will work differently. However, we’re not sure exactly how yet. Any ideas?
Levels of play
Below shows the amount of dedication you can have to strategize your hatches.
Casual gameplay: Get eggs and hatch them! No wait.
Moderate gameplay: Incubate eggs and wait! Guaranteed to not hatch a the color Natural. When starting incubation, additionally have the option to add a special Boon to eggs to increase odds at hatching a certain hatch color, double creatu, or a mutant. Hatch within the incubator for more perks.
Dedicated gameplay: All the above PLUS earning higher-chance Optimized Boon Eggs when putting the same Boon on all incubator slots at once. Reach a new Daily Rewards Bonus that gives your incubator an additional chance for Twins. Consecutively hatching eggs that have the same Boon increases a Hatch Bonus meter, giving you better chances.
❗ What do you think about this new hatching system?
We’d love to hear what you think or questions you may have in the comments!
I’ll be directly responding to them for further discussion, and sharing more details about the new hatchery as things go.
❓ Optional: Daily Rewards Discussion
What are your thoughts on how the Daily Rewards currently work?
What things do you do to reach the last tier?
Or do you not usually make it that far?
Do you have any ideas on what would make it more fun and rewarding? What’s it lacking?
I hope you are as excited as we are about the new Hatchery concept. See you next time!
