[UPDATED] Devs' Corner: November 2025

HellOw,

Our developers have something to tell you!

Every three weeks, approximately, our devs will provide you with information about their work in the “Dev’s Corner.”

This topic is a way of keeping everyone updated on what’s happening with the game. We invite you to discuss and leave your feedback for each of the publications.

Note: All posts must adhere to the forum guidelines and be constructive.

Take a look at our Devs' Corner here!

Warm wishes,

I had to go on classic version to truly see the pink, in mobile there’s not much of a difference which is what I use most frequently. It’s a nice change but won’t affect me much

I like the new background as a novelty, but am not keen for it to remain permanently...

It'd be neat if we could change our main background, or even the color of our profile page. That bright green is garish and is the main reason why I play on mobile a lot. I'm even willing to pay passes on something like this!! As long as it's not gatekept just for VIP members.

AmOwzing has said it is not permanent but not yet decided how long it will stay for

I don't care for the new background whatsover. It looks cheap and childish in my opinion . And the spinning horse icon when I click on items is annoying

I much prefer the "bubbles" myself. Although I think it is intended to represent Ow's head rather than a just few interconnected circles, it looks less gimmicky than the horse icon we have currently.

Keep celebrating with new avatar frames.

They celebrate your 5, 10, 15, and even 20 years on Howrse.

Errr wait what? So we now have to be on Howrse 5, 10 and 20 years to get the frame default smiley :o

I'm sorry but this makes me both laugh and feel insulted default smiley (lol)
Oh well guess I'll just have to wait 6 more years before I can celebrate Howrse 20 y birthday default smiley :-))

thought these were going out through an event per the 20th birthday announcement, not some arbitrary account age thing. howrse just can't stop making poor decisions about this entire "celebration", can they.

Wow… wow. It takes talent to constantly screw up everything you touch. It’s like a reverse Midas’ Touch — everything you touch turns to default smiley (b).

Every single thing with this 20th celebration. Here I was, trying to give you the benefit of the doubt, for weeks even. It’s like speedrunning everything everybody else has experienced over the last 5+ years on this game. Why bother caring.

No pleasing some people, I do like the new background and hope it is around for some time,
and as for the Avatar frames I like those too, a nice touch Howrse.

It just means the frame with the number that corresponds to your account's Birthday milestones

I have to see them . I picked up my frame at the last anniversary event

I see, so it only concerns certain users who have X number of seniority. Always wanted a cool frame (christmas ones for example) but I never got the chance. I will wait for the next event
