That is not what a tardigrade looks like. AT ALLLL

[Armok]

I know that, it's taken out of context here. it's not any existing tardigrade, it's a fantasy creature, but it's in the phylum tardigrada and it's something that could semi-reasonably evolve from current species. I've huge amounts of back story stuff for this thing, and anatomy and evolutionary history etc., 95% of which is not written down yet.

[inaluct]

This is a tardigrade, Armok.

Look, not only is your claim that it could "semi-reasonably" evolve from existing tardigrades bullshit, they wouldn't even be in the same phylum any more. Real tardigrades are tiny segmented little animals that have, according to Wikipedia, one ganglion per body segment. Consider that.

You just want them to be tardigrades so your Mary Sue master race can survive in the vacuum of space, and go into suspended animation, and be cooled to superlow temperatures, and all that other stuff, while still 'being far more intelligent than humans, and whit near perfect charisma,' or something like that. I know it. You might deny it to save face, if you're that shallow, but I know that that's your idea.

[Armok]

Inaluct:
a) this is of topic
b) I probably know more biology than you, I said SEMI-reasonably. In fact it wouldn't be able to go into vacuum or suspended animation due to it's size.
c) stop making random ad homonien(sp?) attacks, even if it WERE like you say it's not your business.

[inaluct]

I probably know more biology than you

BRING IT.

Right here, no Googling shit.

Tell me the difference between a protostome and a deuterostome.

[Emperor_Jonathan]

Armok, are you by any chance a biologist?

[Okenido]

BRING IT.

Right here, no Googling shit.

Tell me the difference between a protostome and a deuterostome.

You might want to try a harder question.

I learned that when I was a freshman.

[inaluct]

Exactly. I don't think he knows it.

Because I don't think he actually understands anything more complicated than basic taxonomy. _(Oooooohh)

[Emperor_Jonathan]

Inaluct.

Did you study Biology?

[inaluct]

No, but I like it. I'm not even out of high school. If I had studied it at a university, though, I wouldn't be doing this. That would be like Kobe going out to prove he could beat a 10 year old in basketball.

But since I have only my high school biology class and what I've read for fun, it should show that he knows very little biology. If I know more than him, he has no justification for dragging bullshit pseudoscience he pretends to understand into every fictional species or setting he inflicts on the world.

[Armok]

oh, you GOT me, I'm not a biology professor, I only have two parent who are hand have the highest possible grade in it the school system in this country allows! that totally justifies derailing the thread whit accusations!

Protostome/deutrostome if I remember correctly is that in one has the mouth develop from the original... dunno what the english name is for that. I also think it rotates 4 of the first 8 cells 45 degres... I know tetrapods like humans have them not rotated and tardigrades or insects have them rotated... damn I should know this, I knew it when I had a test on it but now I have forgotten as outside tests there is never ever any reason to not just google it...

now please get back on topic: pixel art.

[Emperor_Jonathan]

oh, you GOT me, I'm not a biology professor, I only have two parent who are hand have the highest possible grade in it the school system in this country allows! that totally justifies derailing the thread whit accusations!

What?

...damn I should know this...

But you don't.

BEAT DOWN

EDIT:
I'd just like to say this.

...it's something that could semi-reasonably evolve from current species...

Doesn't mean shit. Anything can evolve into anything else given the right circumstances, and time.

[Armok]

why cant you people keep on topic and stop quoting out of context?! Please discus pixel art. I said it was for a FANTASY species, this discusion is not relevant.
I would report you to toady for trolling if I didn't think it was a waste of his time.

[JoshuaFH]

Can I get a pixelated version of my avatar?

[EchoP]

I would like to start by saying your art is really good 

So using one of your drawings, I mocked up the start of a platforming game in pygame. Got collision and transparency down, just not platforming
