Community:MiniToon/Piggy

Piggy is a survival horror game created by, , and. After the intermission is over, players are given the choice to vote on 12 different maps. Once the most voted map wins, players can vote for one of the modes available. Only 6 out of the 7 modes will be shown, as they change after every round. In the most basic gamemodes, survivors need to escape the map by using different keys and tools, while the Piggy has the objective of finding and killing all of the survivors.

The game can be credited for inspiring the creation of numerous character-themed survival horror games, often with very similar mechanics and objectives. It was originally based on the British children's show Peppa Pig, as well as the horror game Granny. However, after fear for a copyright strike to Piggy from the Peppa Pig show, MiniToon had to remodel almost all of the characters in order to protect his game from being taken down.

In commemoration of the game surpassing 200,000 concurrent players, Piggy but it's 100 Players was released in the same month. On September 12, 2020, a sequel to Piggy known as Piggy: Book 2 was released, which would be updated overtime to include 12 more chapters.

Game modes
Game modes are the different ways a Piggy round can be played. The current game modes available are Player, Bot, Player + Bot, Infection, Traitor, Swarm and Tag.

Player
In the Player gamemode, a random player is chosen to be Piggy, with the proper skin applied, and the other players are survivors.

Bot
In the Bot gamemode, the "player" controlling Piggy is controlled via AI. They have a map-specific skin.

Player + Bot
In the Player + Bot gamemode, it is a mix of the Player and Bot gamemodes, respectively: a player's chosen as Piggy, and they are accompanied by a bot as well.

Infection
In the Infection gamemode, a player is randomly selected as Piggy. The twist is that when Piggy catches someone, they turn into a Piggy themselves, and have to infect the remaining survivors. The Piggies win if all survivors are infected or time runs out.

Traitor
In the Traitor gamemode, Piggy is a bot, and a random player becomes the Traitor. Similarly to Piggy's role, the Traitor needs to kill all Survivors, but Traitors have to not get caught, because if a Survivor has a loaded gun, a Survivor can shoot the Traitor, and they will die instead of being stunned. They can also die to Piggy if they're not careful. If a player is shot and is not the traitor, they will become a Piggy.

Swarm
In the Swarm gamemode, starting when the Piggy spawns at 9:30. Every minute after 9:30 a new Piggy will spawn, and will cap once there are 9 bots.

Tag
In the Tag gamemode, when the timer reaches 9:30, all but one of the survivors will turn into a crawling Piggy. If the survivor is hit by one of the Piggies, they will be turned into a crawling Piggy, and the tagger will turn into a survivor. The objective of the survivors is to escape the map while not being tagged by the Piggies.

Items
Items are objects and tools that a player can carry around and use. They can be found throughout the map. Players can only carry one item at a time. If a player tries to grab another item while already carrying one, the player will swap the item they are currently holding in their inventory with the new one. If a player dies while carrying an item; the item will then be taken from their inventory and placed in its original spawn point. This causes items to overlap in the same spot.

There are several types of items. Most are used to unlock doors, clear obstacles or open the exit, such as colored keys, colored keycards, the wrench, etc. Some items are used as methods to stun the Piggy, such the pistol and its ammunition, and the crossbow and its carrot ammunition. Other items can only be given to friendly NPCs for them to unlock certain part of the map or to stun the Piggy, such as carrots, grass and apples. The knife is a special item that is only given to the traitor in the Traitor gamemode, and is used to kill others. Unlike every other item, the knife is placed in the player's inventory and cannot be swapped or removed.

House - Chapter 1
The player is a police officer going to investigate the disappearance of Georgie Piggy. They drive to the house where he was last seen. Upon leaving the car the player hears a weird noise and gets hit in the head. They then wake up in the house and has to escape. Upon doing so they drive back to the police station to report what happened.

Station - Chapter 2
After escaping the house, the player goes back to the station for backup. As soon as they get there, an announcement is announced by Doggy warning the player of another monster (we know it's Doggy because of his signature purple font). After solving the puzzles, the player then enters the Garage and escapes with Doggy.

Gallery - Chapter 3
After running out of gas the player and Doggy become surrounded by monsters similar to Piggy. So then the player decides that they're going to have to escape through the gallery. Doggy seems to remember them. Then, one of the Piggy monsters manage to get into the gallery. When the player escapes, Doggy and the player go to the nearest forest.

Forest - Chapter 4
4 weeks after the previous events, the player and Doggy are at a campsite. No monster is nearby until they go to sleep. When they wake up, Doggy has been told to drink a monster potion by the monsters so he drinks it and turns into a monster. After escaping the player finds an old radio, and someone is on the other side asking if anyone is out there. It is later confirmed through Chapter Five that it is Mr. P.

​​​​School - Chapter 5
The player finds out the radioman is called Mr. P. He asks for the player's help to rescue his friend Bunny. The player finds out that the teacher is there as well, so the player manages to help Bunny and heads to the sewers. The player meets Mr. P and suddenly starts to get dizzy. The player faints, so Bunny takes them to a hospital to heal.

Hospital - Chapter 6
After waking up Bunny informs the player that Mr. P is waiting on the roof and that the hospital isn't safe anymore, because Beary (the doctor) had become infected. The player must escape once more. Around the hospital, there are notes about an experiment involving "the majority of a family". It is questioned whether or not the family was the Pigs and if it was, which family member wasn't there. Through Chapter Seven, we are led to believe that Mr. P botched the mission and created the virus. After escaping, the player and Bunny find out Mr. P left without them. They then have to find another way out. As the player turn to leave, Bunny stays where she is. The player asks if she is coming and she replies yes, but she is distracted by a note left by Mr. P saying that it is for their own good.

Metro - Chapter 7
The player and Bunny are almost out of the city. All the player needs to do is unlock the train to escape. However, Bunny tells the player that she needs to rest. The player needs to get out. After the player unlock and gets on the train, Bunny tells the player that Mr. P gave her a potion and she would become a monster. The player insists for her to get on but she refuses, fearing that the potion will consume her soon. She tells the player that she will stay and try to hold off Zompiggy for as long as she can. Then the player leaves without her. Also just an observation, but when the final scene is playing once the player has escaped, Bunny's theme can be heard in the background. The same theme is heard as her Piggy skin.

Carnival - Chapter 8
The player arrives at the carnival, hoping to get revenge on Mr. P. After the player unlocks the exit, the player talks but gets cut off because Pony and Zizzy are seen there. Pony thought the player was infected and asked Zizzy. Zizzy tells Pony the infected can't talk. The player introduces themselves and asks them what are they doing here. Zizzy replied that they were looking for survivors, and she has a safe place. Then Pony sees Foxy behind and thinks he is a friend. Then Zizzy tells Pony he is infected, so he hits Foxy's head with his wooden sword. Then they take the player with them to a place they call a "safe place".

City - Chapter 9
The player arrives on a rooftop. Pony says that he sees a safe place. It's confirmed by Zizzy there are other people inside of the building. The player, Pony, and Zizzy need to find a way in. Once getting past the gate Zizzy asks what the player were doing before all this. The player confirms that they were a police officer. Pony was trying to become an optometrist like his father and Zizzy was a fencing coach. Zizzy has sisters she also taught fencing. It's confirmed that her sisters are in the safe place too. Zizzy asks how the player ended up in the Carnival and they tell her that they were looking for Mr. P to stop him because he has been giving out potions that turn people into the infected. Zizzy tells the player to stay at the safe place for a while. From the trash bin, they all hear noises. Assuming someone is watching them, Zizzy and the player check it out. Pony stays behind saying: "Stay Safe".

Mall - Chapter 10
The person in the trash can is not seen by the camera. The person runs into the mall to hide. The player questions why the person would hide in the mall. The player then walks in. After getting past the locked door on the second floor, Zizzy tells the person who ran from the trash can to show themselves. Georgie Piggy pops out behind a counter with an afraid look on his face. He is wielding a bat as a weapon in case someone tries to attack him. He asks how the player knows who he is. The player tell him their name. The player also lets him know he was the person they were looking for when going to the house. He says after his family visited the hospital, they acted all strange and scary. He went to the city to find grandma but everyone looked scary so he hid in the trash can. Zizzy tells him to come with her and the player. Georgie asks if he can see his family again and the player tell him that they will find the person behind all this. The player goes to the safe place and one of the people say that Zizzy is back with friends. One of them says the player looks pretty funny and Pony says that they tracked a helicopter signal nearby. The player suspects that it is Mr. P and that the player wants to see him. Pony says he and Zizzy will come with the player to find Mr. P. Zizzy says that she will be back soon and to take care of Georgie Piggy. Zizzy, Pony, and the player head out to go find Mr. P and to stop him.

Outpost - Chapter 11
The player arrives at the Outpost where the signal came from. The player needs to get access to a base. Once the player unlocks the base's door, Georgie runs up to Pony, Zizzy, and the player. He says he tricked the two sisters into playing hide and seek so he could come and find out who hurt his family. Behind him is an abundance of infected Soldiers so Georgie and the player head inside while Pony and Zizzy defend. Once inside, the player can see Mr. P is missing some of his skin which is replaced with mechanized parts and says he tried to help make things better but made them worse. He doesn't notice that the player is there until they say they are going to stop him. He thinks his mind is playing tricks on him because he believes that Georgie and the player are dead. He thinks the two people he let down are haunting him now. He runs away so Georgie and the player chase after him.

Distorted Memory
Georgie has a memory while sleeping. He wakes up after a nightmare to find out that Penny is gone. He soon finds out that the house has changed into a nightmare itself and now he has to find a way to escape. After he gets out of the house to find Penny, Penny runs away from him. Georgie then turns into one of the infected. He wakes up in the mall after the dream.

Plant - Chapter 12
After entering the plant, Mr. P is still insane and is trying to kill the player. After showing him a picture of his wife, he regains his sanity and reveals he abandoned Bunny and the player in the hospital with researchers because he thought the player were infected. Those researchers gave him the cyborg parts. Georgie gets angry at Mr. P for taking his family away from him and wants to attack Mr. P but the player stops him, reminding him that if he attacks Mr. P, he will become the one thing he hates the most. Mr. P offers to stay in the plant and fight off the infected. What comes after, is chosen by the player.

Good Ending
In the good ending, the player leaves the plant with Georgie to find out Zizzy and Pony successfully fought off the infected. Georgie suggests working on a cure. In a post-credits scene, Mr. P's hat is left inside the plant, with his location and fate unknown.

Bad Ending
In the bad ending, the player tries and convince Mr. P to come with them. Sadly, the player isn't paying attention and an infected Badgy sneaks up on them and attacks the player. In a post-credits scene, Mr. P's hat is left inside the plant, with his location and fate unknown.

Alleys - Book 2: Chapter 1
This is a flashback of when the player and Doggy arrested two burglars, Willow and Rash. Willow states that she only stole to provide for her family, but the player is forced to arrest her. Doggy and the player feel empathy for Willow but there is nothing to be done now. Meanwhile, the player is brought back to the real world, where Mimi suggests that the player got batteries to get a radio working, so that other survivors may be contacted. Pony and Zizzy agree so the player heads with them to the store to get some.

Store - Book 2: Chapter 2
Batteries are needed for the radio, so Zizzy, Pony, and the player all look for some in the Store. The player eventually finds the batteries they were looking for, and they use the radio. Mimi contacts the radio, the radio picks up, with the "Settlement Six" asking the player to meet up with them. Pony is unsure at first, but the player agrees to meet up, and the three of them head to the location of it. The player doesn't find anyone at first, but then a group of bandits appear, with Willow as their leader. Willow addresses Pony and the player first, as she has history with them. Pony was an ex-member of their group before he left. Then she talks to Zizzy, who reveals that Pony had already told her all about the group. Willow decides to take away Zizzy for questioning. We decide to go after the group, (who are called the Silver Paw) and save Zizzy.

Refinery - Book 2: Chapter 3
Pony and the player stumble upon Settlement 6, the Lucella Oil Refinery, which Pony is oddly not familiar with, despite being an ex-member. They decide to enter, certain that Zizzy is inside. Once the player opens a specific enclosed room, Zizzy is found inside, brawling with an infected Poley. Zizzy states that she has fought so many that she is starting to enjoy it, and once Pony and the player ask her to leave with them, she feels as if she has pulled a muscle in her arm. As she lifts it, she reveals that the infected must have scratched her, and begs the player and Pony to leave without her, promising that she'll fend off as much as possible before she turns. The duo return to the Safe Place silently, and the rest of the survivors share the mutual silence, understanding that Zizzy is no longer with them.

The Safe Place - Book 2: Chapter 4
Georgie wakes the player from their room in The Safe Place upon hearing a loud explosion. Neither are aware of the source, but both know that they should escape. Another bang is heard, and the player unlocks different rooms around the building, freeing Pony, Mimi, and Giraffy in the process. Pony finds that Zee and Zuzy are not present, assuming and hoping that they have used the vent to escape safely. Following the survivors’ escape, The Silver Paw (Willow and all of Settlement 6, bar Tigry) are outside, and capture every survivor (bar Zee and Zuzy), locking them up. Once captured, Giraffy and Mimi apologise to Pony for meeting up with T.S.P in the first place.

Sewers - Book 2: Chapter 5
Zee and Zuzy break into the survivors' cell via the Sewers, and the player goes with them to get the cell unlocked. Several notes around the map indicate that these sewers were once the meeting place of a group called the Insolence, enemies of T.S.P., worshippers of the Eye, theorized to belong to Mr. Stitchy, and that T.S.P. flooded the sewers to kill them, likely due to an infection outbreak. Another note presumably by Alfis says he is devoted to the Eye and will stay no matter what, which is likely what led to his infection. After escaping the sewers and getting the cell unlocked, Tigry almost kills Pony but holds back, so Willow tries to shoot Pony. Giraffy jumps in the way of the bullet and asks if it's enough to forgive him for Zizzy, to which Pony replies that it's "more than enough." Pony and the player then challenge Willow to a duel in their captive habitat, the factory.

Factory - Book 2: Chapter 6
BVWillow gives the player and Pony a head start for the duel, considering she has a gun and there's something coming from the sewers that doesn't sound friendly. There are various notes around the map referring to the disaster Pony caused and William's disappearance. Pony ultimately wins the duel with a toy wooden sword and he and the player escape, meeting with the others.

Worst Ending
You can get this ending by not saving any TSP members. Willow sneaks up behind the player. Zee and Zuzy try to warn them, but it's too late, and Willow shoots the player, killing them.

Survivor Ending
You can get this ending by saving between 1 and 5 TSP members. Willow sneaks up behind the player and gets ready to shoot them. One of the TSP members (depending on which ones you saved) tells her to stop because the player saved their lives, to which Willow responds "and they destroyed mine," referencing the arrest in the alleys. Zee and Zuzy then walk up, and Willow finds out Zizzy had sisters. She gives in and tells the player that the Military moved up north to work on the cure, and Mimi says she will stay with Giraffy at the factory so he can heal. Meanwhile, Willow has a flashback about her time with William.

Savior Ending
You can get this ending by saving all 6 TSP members. Willow sneaks up behind the player and gets ready to shoot them. Katie tells her to stop because the player saved their lives, to which Willow responds "and they destroyed mine," referencing the arrest in the alleys. Zee and Zuzy then walk up, and Willow finds out Zizzy had sisters. She gives in and tells the player that the military moved up north to work on the cure, and Mimi says she will stay with Giraffy at the factory so he can heal. However, Katie says they will take care of Giraffy as a thanks. Meanwhile, Willow has a flashback about her time with William.

Port -Book 2: Chapter 7
Willow, the player, Pony, Zuzy, Zee, Georgie, and Mimi (if the player most recently completed the Savior Ending on Factory) arrive at the Lucella Port. It is revealed that Tigry has stolen Willow's boat, so the player turns on the lighthouse to attract a boat. Budgey sees the lighthouse turn on and docks her ship at the port, using up the last of her fuel.

Savior Ending
You can get this ending by saving all 6 TSP members in Factory then completing Port. After they finally convince Budgey to let them ride, Budgey reveals that one of her crewmates got infected, and that over time, the rest of her crew fell, too. She locked them up in the lower levels of the ship, which meant the spare fuel was inaccessible. Willow offers to go down there and get it, which she then fights with Pony and the player about, considering they need her alive because only she knows where the military is moving. Eventually, Willow decides to let them come with her. Mimi then asks where they'd be landing if they do manage to get the fuel. Budgey says they will be landing in Doveport. Mimi says she knows an engineer there, and she wonders if they could still be there.

Survivor Ending
You can get this ending by saving between 1 and 5 TSP members in Factory then completing Port. After they finally convince Budgey to let them ride, Budgey reveals that one of her crewmates got infected, and that over time, the rest of her crew fell, too. She locked them up in the lower levels of the ship, which meant the spare fuel was inaccessible. Willow offers to go down there and get it, which she then fights with Pony and the player about, considering they need her alive because only she knows where the military is moving. Eventually, Willow decides to let them come with her.

Savior Ending
Budgey first says that they need to find gasoline. Thus, both the player and Willow decide to head down beneath the Medora to retrieve the fuel. The player is then ambushed by an infected crew member named Archie, along with Pepper, Bobby, and Kenneth. After opening the green crate where the fuel is, the player and Willow conversate about the amount of fuel left when suddenly, Kenneth comes from behind as the player warns Willow. Willow angrily bangs on the door, then complaining about being stuck with the player in the fuel crate. The player argues with her and conversate about their separate lives, and eventually she asks where her parents are. The player says that they don't have their records on Willow's parents, and after more arguments, the rest of the Safe Place group eventually finds them locked up. Pony says that Georgie was the one who managed to find them after hearing them fighting down below deck. Zuzy jokes about him being helpful for once in finding you. Mimi also says that they can't waste time, as they have got a friend to meet, and that they have got a mission to follow. There is then a loud gunshot/boom noise coming from above. Pony suggests that everyone checks it out. Budgey, saying they surprisingly made it, eventually has the screen turn to a sky view, in which there are (somewhat) loud gunshots and sparks in the sky as the screen fades into black.

Alternate Games
MiniToon created an alternate game named Piggy but it's 100 players. It has the same storyline except for Plant as Piggy but has with 100 players as its maximum player limit per server. If players vote to play Bot Mode, there will be ten bots. And if the players voted to play player and bot, there will be 1 player and 9 bots. Suggested by the name, each server can hold 100 players, meaning it may start to lag very quickly.

On January 16th, 2021, Piggy: Intercity was released. It is a survival game based around Piggy, it will eventually intertwine with the main game of Piggy and its sequel.

Criticism
The game itself was criticized for winning the 8th Bloxys award for Game of the Year and also the Builderman Award of Excellence, leading the game itself to be mass disliked by many people, commonly from the Royale High and Adopt Me! fanbase. This mass dislike was seen in the Piggy Twitter account Piggy News' post.
