>>5139560funny, I'd expect more interest given summer visitors
>>5139581Spec evo is boring
>>5139582>BoringNot when Koseman and Barlowe do it
>>5139615No, all of it is boring
Bump with sea striders
>>5139581The discord killed all outside interest in it.
>>5139623Thanks for reminding me to purchase expedition as soon as possible. Darwin IV is just too based
>>5139560Bumpu with a Knight-esque pic
>>5139627Trooncords are a cancer

How would you make a spec evo game fun when nobody wants to be the prey? Should it be all predators competing with one another over npc prey?
>>5139966Maybe you can be the prey if given badass defense mechanisms
>>5139966What style of game do you mean? Something like the isle?
>>5139627there's a discord? and that's why the thread died?shame I like the thread
>>5140095I was imagining something like the isle, but on a larger scale, where surviving long enough lets you get to “reproductive age” and choose a mutation that increases one stat and lowers another (like a slight increase in heart size could let you run for longer, but you would run out of hunger sooner from the increased calories that fuel it)When you spawn you get the average of your parents’ statsThen you could watch how each population changes over time, and which strategies were the most successful
>>5139966well when it comes to megafauna, it helps to remember than generally the majority of hunts result in failure, too many games have prey be simply helpless against predators existing as nothing but walking snacks for herd species, could always make the juveniles or even majority of the herd be NPC's while the players are the pack leaders
>>5140667>weaker members of the herd are npcs who need the real players to defend themThat could be a good way to balance it, keeping the prey players powerful and able to defend themselves, while still needing coordination and skill to keep your young alive
>>5140320same
Here's a crazy ideaA Different Best Friend>A timeline where The Striped Hyena became domesticated instead of The Wolf>Assorted Hyena breeds (including SMASHED AND SLAMMED breeds)
>>5142170hyena pugs
>After Man was adapted as a documentary à la Future is Wild with stop-motion animation by Japan in the ‘90sWHY didn’t any of you faggots tell me about this?? How the fuck do I watch it.>inb4 Man After Man was adapted too and no one told me about that either
>>5142300Theres only like 10 minutes of stop motion in it. It's mostly people talking. The entire things on youtube.
>>5139966>>5140618I would prefer simulator game where you create habitat and then create new species there and see how they survive and adapt to your world
>>5142451it's still in development, but The Sapling might be of interest
i wanna do something with monitors. i drew a few with a dog-like upright leg posture but it just looks kinda boring... idk what direction to take these monitors in. aquatic monitors would just be mosasaurs.
>>5142845i mean we have mosasaurs in the water and megalania on landif your goal is just to make them top predators then you might want to do it in a way different way
What are some animals you would like to see as part of a spec-evo project, be it future prediction or flat out seedworld? For me at least it's skinks, particularly the Egernia genus that have a lot of potentialOmnivorous, flexible behavior, high intelligence (for a lizard), a body plan that is sufficiently generic it can easily be taken in a bunch of directions And of course skinks are fascinating from a reproductive perspective, ranging all the way from typical squamate style eggs all the way to true placental pregnancies (T. Ivensi)Egernia being viviparous but depending on the individual species the remaining role of the internally fertilized eggs can be still quite large so a regression to oviparity is still entirely possible
>>5142845I had an idea for a terrestrial cursorial monitor which converted the fifth toe of the hindleg into a biological "high heel" that would allow it to generate enough thrust to propel it at higher speeds
