That would be how I envision the so called Ore Beetle, in it's adult stage, of course. It's just a quick drawing with not a lot of skill involved, was done in about 10 minutes maybe but just to show what I have in my mind when you released your suggestion and idea. I like your idea though immensely, I'd go even further and make Ore beetle adults able to mask themselves partially/fully and look just like the ore they ate/devoured. A neat idea and nice conceptual thought overall, Jotur.
Holy crap. That's awesome. Where did you learn to do that, because I'd love to learn. And the masking idea is kinda like the silverfish from minecraft, no?
your a genuine, that would work perfectly into the game. Lets hope one the chances one the tamable adult eat titanium ores is good chances to get more of them. Same here, what art you used for this?
Oh, no guys, I've been using GIMP and am to be honest very good in it. Also, that's just a small concept and didn't really come out the way I wanted but I'm glad you like it. Well, GIMP it is, nothing else. And I was spriting stuff for Terraria as well, I have an art thread there with a lot of sprites.
Its also a great idea i like the ine where the beetle lavae "refine" the ore when they grow up and you harvest the shells
Maybe you could mate two different bettles and they would make an new tamed bettle that you have to feed with an new type of ore depending in the combo you made? Sometimes, trough, breeding could fail and make a super aggresive or a beetle that dies as soon as it is born. If there is no breed for a certain combo, it would be randomly one of the races.
I think that in breeding that a larva should be made, so you can choose, by feeding it different types of ores, what type of beetle you want. But all of this is assuming that breeding in implanted.
