Growth is a feature in Feather Family.
Use[]
Growth comes in three different forms: Hatch, Grow and Rebirth. Here are what they are and brief descriptions of them.
Hatch[]
Hatch is an ability exclusive to all sizes of the Egg as well as the Phoenix and Cockatrice egg. When using Hatch, the egg will emit zigzag-shaped aura effect then a menu will be brought up on the player's screen. This menu will have the birds they can select to hatch into, which you can hatch into any bird you own. Once you choose the bird, you will turn into a baby version of that bird and be able to customize your bird. When finished, you'll be able to play as the baby bird you selected.
Grow[]
Grow is the most common growth ability, as it can be used by every baby bird (Except Egg) as well as the fledgling Griffin. When growing, the baby bird you're playing as will emit an aura before morphing into an adult version of your selected bird. Then a message will pop up and ask you whether you'd like to keep the same color scheme as you had when you were a baby or create a new color scheme. Once done, you'll be playing as the adult/ fledgling (If growing as a baby griffin.) version of the bird.
Rebirth[]
Rebirth is an ability exclusive to the adult Phoenix. As opposed to going up a growth stage, this turns the phoenix back to an egg, specifically the phoenix egg. When using this ability, all your UI will disappear. The top and bottom parts of your screen will be covered in black bars. The phoenix will triggers its Display animation while emitting fire from its mid body, then turn into an egg. You will be able to customize this egg and then play as it.
Trivia[]
- Phoenix is the only bird that can preform all 3 actions, as it can hatch as an egg and grow as a chick, with the rebirth feature being exclusive to its adult.
- These can only be used by clicking on Controls and selecting them as opposed to most abilities.
- As Griffin has an additional fledgling stage, using Grow as a baby will turn you into a fledgling. Using Grow as a fledgling will then turn you into an adult, which makes Griffin the only bird to be able to grow twice.
- The Rebirth feature is often used as an alternative to resetting.
- There was a bug where adult birds would still be able to use Grow even after growing into an adult from a chick. This was fixed some time after the Hornbill update.
