Feather Family Classic is a game on ROBLOX. The game is a restored version of the original Feather Family from 2018. It can be played here.
Gameplay[]
Feather Family Classic has a very similar premise to Feather Family, being an animal roleplay game where you can choose from a variety of birds and customize them. However, with Feather Family Classic being an old version of the game, many features from the modern version are not in the game. This includes very basic elements like feathers, unlockables, game pass birds, flocks and many biomes. All birds in this game use their original models and all biomes in this game are their oldest versions.
Birds[]
Just as they are in the modern game, birds are the playable creatures that players can select and customize. As this game is a much older version of Feather Family, only a fraction of the birds from the modern game exist. All of these birds are free due to the lack of a currency system.
| Bird | Flight Status |
|---|---|
| Egg | Flightless |
| Chicken | Flightless |
| Quail | Limited |
| Goose | Flying |
| Duck | Flying |
| Swan | Flying |
| Turkey | Limited |
| Owl | Flying |
| Pigeon | Flying |
| Pheasant | Limited |
General Gameplay[]
Features such as Flocks, Roleplay Servers and other key features are absent in Feather Family Classic due to them not existing in the 2018 version of the game. However, basic features still exist such as customization, actions, biomes and items.
Unlike that of the original game, customization takes you into a small room where you can actively play as your bird while customizing as opposed to its model being rotatable at max. Certain coloring options, textures and effects go by different names (Ex. Wings 1 and Wings 2 instead of Coverts, Primary Feathers and Secondary Feathers), as well as some just not existing entirely.
The game’s map, like that of the main game, is split into biomes. All (Partially except one) of these biomes are present in the modern Feather Family game, though are much more basic in this game. In addition, Skylands, Sanctuary and Jungle don’t exist in this version.
| Name | Teleport Placement |
|---|---|
| Village | First |
| Forest | Second |
| Swamp | Third |
| Ice Mountain | Fourth |
| Volcano | Fifth |
| Desert | Sixth |
| Beach | Seventh |
| Flower Forest | Eighth |
Swamp is not its own biome on the main game due to it not appearing on the Teleport list, but an updated version of it does exist as an intersection between the Forest and Beach.
Trivia[]
- This game was released with the main game’s Confuciusornis update for veteran players who wanted to experience the old game again. The game will not be updated and will remain as a relic.
- Though there are no game passes specifically for this game, ownership of V.I.B. from the main game transfers to this one as well.
- Comparing certain biomes in this game to their modernized counterparts in the main game, it’s clear that ShinyGriffin has tried staying loyal to the general layouts of most biomes.
- Feather Family Classic heavily differs in action mechanics.
- For Run, players must hold the Shift button/Run for the running to be active.
- For Fly, your bird follows your mouse/wherever you touch your screen. Run can also be used during flight. The alteration between takeoff and flight is simply just a speed burst. Flight is not interrupted by surfaces. Limited flight birds lack the slow flying mechanic for when they lose stamina and simply plummet.
- Call lacks any cooldown and hence can be spammed.
- Build Nest grants no nest type options and the nest model is different from any of the main game’s nest models.
- Sit and Hurt anchor the user, disabling all movement while active instead of deactivating at any movement.
- Due to the lack of an effective item management system, item flooding is common in servers. It takes a while for the server to erase items, so large collections of items can exist for periods of time.
