Hey guys, I've noticed a lack of discussion about this lost web browser game called Shidonni. It was a kids game from 2008 that let you draw your favorite animals and let you take care of them (feed them, dress them, pet them), play minigames with them, put them in the Coolest Animal Competitions, and even let you send your animals to friends and across the world. It was constantly being updated up until 2014/2015 when the servers shut down. There's not a lot of info on it left.
There is a group of people that have been trying to get what info they can for the past 8 years and are trying to recreate it (Shidonni Redrawn), however they only have around 40% of the files from Version 2 of the game. It didn't run flash, it used Silverlight. Some devs have already been contacted (They have specifically noted Ina Volynsky and Nachson, and they wish that devs that have been contacted already are left alone). The search appears to have reached a dead end with very little (images of gameplay) being found, and they need help from anyone that may have anything of use(old PCs that ran Shidonni being an example). Yes, we know SewerReviewer made a video on it, however the search still remains slow in progress.
If you have anything at all, that would mean a lot to us!
Thank you in advance!
