  4. Though the slightest swipe of a bearyena's claw Will render us bleeding and dead upon the ground, We are strong in other ways. The Gods may send their storms, their rogues, Their cold-hearted birds-- But we will not give up. Every time we fall, Every time we fail, we will get back up. We are made of glass, of china-- Of every breakable, fragile thing. Throw us on the ground and we will surely be forgotten. But a fragile thing that is loved can last forever. We are made of porcelain. What is wrong with that? Heyyy imma try to do a playthrough with dialogue and a good storyline kinda like what Silver is doing...kudos I love your story XD Okay I'll come back to this

  5. I did it! Turns out filling the entire canvas with white “stars” is good, too- it makes the galaxy a little brighter! And now it looks like slime... yay?

  6. Did it on ibisPaint- featuring hand drawn stars because there isn’t a good brush. I think I made the colours way too bright, oops.

  7. I possibly did it by giving it a spherical lens and lowering the opacity!

  9. this isn't niche fanart but I put it here because this is how I did the galaxy for this if you have any questions, ask away! 1. with a very big pen tool, put down a load of coloured circles. put just pinks purples and blues if you want a less colourful galaxy, but I put down a lot of reds and greens so mine's gonna look a lot more colourful. remember, the range of colours you chose really matters here. also, dont do any yellows ,or greens with no added blue, here because those come later. you can also leave some white spaces too it wont matter 2. click on "filter" at the top and then on "gaussian blur", then slide it until you get this effect. you can blur it more or less if you want to, its basically all subjective as to what you think looks good/ suits the rest of the drawing 3. then you're gonna find the "star" "star 2" and "star 3" brushes and use those. firstly I took star 3, set the colour and hue jitter to about 50, and just randomly put some stars in the background- because these stars are a lot of different colours, you should make them quite big and put the opacity down. just mess around with the brush settings until you get something that looks a bit like this: 4. with the other two star brushes, just add in some more stars. make sure when you get these you put the colour and hue jitter to zero! I make one type of star white, and the other type of star slightly yellow just to add some variation. tip: make little clusters of stars and put a lot more there, but also try not to put too many in one spot! just try not to make everything spread evenly. also, you should change the opacity of the stars and lower the multicoloured ones the most, then the yellow ones should be the second least opaque, and the white ones should only be put down to about 85%. this is what I got after some fiddling around: 5. now, get an airbrush, make it quite big, and just randomly airbrush splotches of similar colours you used at the start over everything on a new layer to make it a bit more colourful. this is where you can go crazy and add some yellows and greens and reds to the mix too. when you're done, put on a gaussian blur again (but not as strong as the first one, only to like 9 or 10 and adjust the opacity to what looks right. then you're done! also: if you want to add characters in, put them under the airbrush layer so they look integrated into the background, heres a comparison using a random stick figure with some lovely makeup

  20. (AAAAH I love that book but I already named him beforehand. You can name the next babu though) Glass finally hears her calls and comes running to find her K.O.'d. Childbirth was hard on her. "China, wake up." Glass shakes her gently. The slightest twinge of worry for his mate grips him. "Oh Glass...you came..." China wakes up and lifts her head to look up at him weakly. "Look at our son." She brushes away her feathered tail to reveal the beautiful green-and-white kit. Atop his head are his mother's antennae; the gift of a Future. "He's so beautiful, just like you," Glass smiles at his mate. China smiles back. "What should we name him?" China murmurs, gently licking her child's soft white mane. "Ceramic," Glass replies. "Perfect," China breathes a sigh of happiness. The two curl up together and sleep after a long day of acorn picking and giving birth.

  24. I feel like we should have a section for the forums themselves. "What does that mean?" you are most likely asking. Well, you know how in the Niche section, there is a bug section, and a future requests section? I feel like we should have those sections for the actual forums, not just the games. Because there are some bugs on the actual forums. And it's always nice to improve the forums, so a future request section would be nice! (custom fonts, etc.) Ya. I'm pretty sure someone suggested this in the depths of some topic before, but of course it didn't get too far off the ground...

  25. Dear Drone Engineers,After a month of testing and improving, we finally released the new Campaign Update on Steam! Thanks again to all testers of the preview version for all the great feedback and bugreports! We will keep you posted here as soon as we release another testing version for the next update. At its core this update is all about the new campaign mode. Captains, progression through unlocking drone parts, travel events, asteroid fields and much more The old savefiles are no longer compatible with this version. However all drones from older savefiles will be imported automatically and should be available to use in the competitive and creative mode. @Philo and @David also recorded a video showing the new features of the campaign update: To celebrate the update we are running a 25% discount for the game starting today at 16:00 CET and goes on for two weeks Here are the complete patchnotes summarized for the main branch: Patchnotes New Features Split the game into 3 different modes: Competitive, Campaign and Creative New Campaign Mode with new progression system, different captains, travel events, new locations and rewards New Creative Mode with different settings to change the gameplay New shared drone list for creative and competitive mode Added in-place replace functionality for drone parts (hold alt when dragging item over another) Added multiple gravity and air resistance modes to the test drive Added Kickstarter backers to the credits Added planet names from Kickstarter backers to the game The minimap now has a dynamic planet display Added live weapon previews to tooltips Added drone skins as setting for basic parts New Drone Parts: Piston that can be extended and retracted Small magnet, small and easy to use but not as configurable as the big magnet Drone Part Changes: Changed the look of the Magnet, so it matched its collider Added the option to choose a Drone Skin for the basic parts Spikes now cause damage on impact rather than continuous damage on contact There is now only one resource tank which can hold all resources We increased the rate plasma and cryo ammunition change the temperature of enemies Drills now only cause damage while they are activated Particle weapons now heat up or cool down enemies faster than other weapon types Reworks: You can now access the drone hangar directly from the map without having to travel to a location Most missions now have different difficulty levels We balanced the health of the enemies to match the difficulty level of the new campaign mode Enemies now target you if you attack them, even if you are out of range Snake damage changed from 100 to 180. Aggro speed increased by 20% Balanced all weapon-stats A lot of small UI changes, especially for the campaign mode A lot of sound effect changes and new sound effects Changed the drone import file dialog to use native dialogues You now only can mine a finite amount of resources from one planet, even if you launch multiple drones Lowered health of shipwreck-parts Slightly increased durability of Energy Shield Reduced the burning damage scaling Objects now stop burning after 5 seconds, unless they get heated up again. Increased rate at which fire and cryo ammunition change temperature Plasma and cryo weapons now increase / lower temperature at the same rate Bugfixes: Race finish line is no longer detected as obstacle Fixed afterburner collider Proximity and distance sensor overlays no longer stretch the drone image Fixed that some objects did not heat up neighboring objects Fixed small spawning bugs in different missions Fixed bug where hammerheads that haven’t targeted the player before were faster Stonemantas don't spawn fireflies anymore when they are frozen Fixed placement of resources on lava planet corridor Fixed bug in corp laboratory mission where no laboratory would spawn Fixed drone workshop max diameter not being displayed correctly in racing modes Fixed Continue button collider so it does not overlap with the upload drone checkbox after a Tournament Fixed a bug in the main menu UI that occurred when deleting saves You should no longer be able to print sub drones inside the terrain and fly underground. The parts break if they spawn inside the terrain. Engine: Upgraded our engine to Unity 2018.4.3f1 Intermediate Patchnotes from 0.7.2 to 0.7.3 Fixed continue button collider so it does not overlap with the upload drone checkbox after a tournament Fixed memoryleak of new minimap Added individual captain portraits Added effect for nebula event Added tooltips for resources Fixed a bug in the main menu UI that occurred when deleting saves Added Small Magnet drone part Redesigned Magnet to fit the collider better Old savefiles are now deleted after the drones got transferred to the new global drone list Ore planet now shows mission status as “completed” instead of “failed” after going on mission Reworked drone launch UI to show more information Added animations to all travel events Added current galaxy number display to UI Fixed Piston extend and retract speed. it’s now in meters /second and should behave more consistently Cheers & Have fun!

  28. Ceramic, surprised by his mother's sudden harshness, drops his belly to the ground. He covers his eyes with his long feathered tail and starts to whimper. "Silence!" China hisses. "Be very quiet..." She hears someone coming through the grass. Swish, swish. She whips around to find only Talenel. But the eerie feeling still remains. "There's danger coming," China whispers. She pulls Ceramic close to her, and he quietly buries himself in her fur and feathers. "What? I don't smell or hear--or see--anything." Suddenly a strange nicheling pops out of the grass, screaming. "YEBEARA! BEARILLA! YENABR! BEARYENA!!!" Glass is still by his tree, waiting for Ceramic and China to come home when he sees a little brown bearyena cub prowling in the shadows. It couldn't be without a mother to protect it. Glass' stomach drops. "China!! Ceramic, where are you!?"
