Hi! I know there's been a lot of nurturing grounds updates recently, and first of all--thank you. I see how hard y'all work to keep this game running and improving every day! And somehow still haven't started ignoring player feedback like nearly every other game I've played? Astounding. Thank you.

Now, I was wondering if "warm" and "cool" on eggs could be just slightly changed. Right now the keywords and button words are identical, just swapped, and oftentimes that's what trips me up. (Eggling is warm--cool it; eggling is cool--warm it.) Maybe they could be changed to synonyms just so they aren't the same exact words? As in, eggling is warm--chill it, or eggling is cool--heat it.

But I do want to know everyone else's thoughts, so if you respond ping me! Has anyone else gotten confused by this pair? Or would changing it end up confusing you? I'm really curious :)

I agree, I actively do hatchlings only because this is such a common slip-up for me. Some mild word change would be extremely helpful!

i have a similar problem with "this hatchling is bored- Read it a book" it makes more sense to me xD

I've been thinking about this for a while, and I think a good way to rephrase it would be along the lines of:

Eggling is hot -> cool it
Eggling is cold -> warm it.

When I first started, I was actually super confused when I got the message "eggling is warm". Eggs are supposed to be kept warm, generally, just not hot. So I wasn't sure if I should cool it or not. xD

I approve this message--both the warm/cool thing and the idea that one can read to bored Hatchlings.
