What the, I was pretty sure this is a normal desert.
« on: July 10, 2014, 10:22:17 am »

So Mid Autumn has fallen on my longest crash free Fortress in .40.01, and my black sand desert just popped up with 'plants' called "Pebble Plants"  and "baby toes succulent."


I'm a little scared.

regardless, the slime shooter will be completed, come hell or high water, which are both entirely plausible setbacks at this point.

Looks like a normal desert.

Don't be fooled. It's obviously dead mysterious elven babies whose toes have popped through the ground  :o

I love this community. Somebody asks "hay guise how do i tame shark", and then everybody is like "why don't we fling sharks at things with complex mechanical devices?".

When my lithops died, my housemate at the time said I was less nurturing than a desert.

Had to Google a lithops. Now I'm wondering if that story is actually true.

Ah glad the Pebble Plant wasn't a glitch.


Nor am I scared that my desert randomly started growing Body parts anymore.
