I think this race would be the most logical as another playable race since already included in the line-up is humans, birds, fish(like), apes, plants, nova, robot, etc. The only thing missing is BUGS!
I would throw myself at these guy if chucklefish made this reality. I especially love the hanging cities in the desert idea. It would definitely throw a wrench into your gears and make you feel a bit outlandish. For bugs being so common in our life they really don't come into our art enough! Liked and +1. (actually the suggestion seem BUGGED? (HARHAR) when I try to upvote it just redirects. Didn't make me 282.) For ship design it would be pretty awesome to have like a mix of mucus/web/cacoon type details all around it. A bit organic like the Florans, but in a different way. Empty cocoons with lights in them for lamps? Web-spun tapestries for the ship's walls? Perhaps some sort of material is molded all around the outside of the ship that hardens and the ship looks like a giant cocoon itself? I'm hoping someone will come up with a more clever idea but still just putting it out there.
Well I gotta say I enjoy this race quite a lot. It is in my top 3 or so. Time for me to keep posting here to keep this in the first page
lets see , we got ,2 mamals , 1 plant , 1 fish/anphibian , 1 robot and 1 bird ... no bug and reptile ... work for me EDIT ------------------------------ make them 4 arms , that could be thier ability, even tho it can be a little op
When I first saw the race, I was reminded of Stun the Insect from Bloody Roar, haha. But I for one support and love the idea of an insectoid race and then throw in Egyptian themes. And then I get all giddy thinking of what their armor would look like and imagine stuff from like "Big Bad Beetleborgs" or like Kamen Rider? Hehe
I like the look and feel of these best so far, however there is still some lacking information from culture and origin you have my vote if you can fix this.
