tbh it looks like first person will make me dizzy as hell, an option to deactivate the filtering would be nice

LOL just got an amazing unexpected behaviour that I have to share...

I programmed the chickens to seek out warmth and light: http://i.imgur.com/jipOT.jpg

Worked really well, looks really natural and life like.

Forgot one thing... What is the warmest, brightest thing in Maia? LAVA!

The little bastards run into it and burn up in little puffs of white smoke. :p

Its tweakable and optional!

Omg, that's halarious, Simoroth! On another note, you should introduce a disease to the chickens that'll make them seek out humans, kill them, then lay their eggs in the persons ripped out belly, all Aliens-like.

Mwhaha.

HAHAHAH Absolutely love emergent stuff

[Mephansteras]

Awesome.

[simoroth]

Well. At least they seem to enjoy the second of pure bliss before being burnt to cinders.

Those chickens might actually become a large danger to the colony. Airvents are hot, and turbines don't like it when you drop a chicken size object into them.

It'd be funny if by staying next to the lava they progressively got more and more resistant to it until they eventually could support standing in it for a while and then live in it....

Jus' sayin'!

Totally. Hopefully I can make them a real pain.

Still unsure as to whether I'll have them reproduce fast and cause a tribble problem.

Kickstarter is having a slow day. Hope it picks up when I release the new videos on Monday.

I now can't wait for Monday

Simon you should make chickens like cats in DF , they breed quickly and are a fucking nuisance and then you cull the lot and eat them

But that's what the cats stretch goal is for!

IMP bots. Then the rhinos.

I'm beginning to suspect you would have been far better served to set a lower goal, especially since you planned on doing it anyways, with the "core game", and a lot of these elements (like the PoV stuff) as stretch goals.

As it stands, it looks like you'll end up doing the core game with no funding instead of limited funding, and that sucks.

Here's hoping things pick up big time. With only 12 days to go and what's looking like a failed kickstarter, though, I see difficulty building additional enthusiasm.

I think things will look up. Distance was far more dire than we are doing. We even had the start an uptick yesterday.

Also: I did an interview with the Guardian this week. As soon as that goes online then we might see a major traffic boom!
