      so, I have a question. do you guys keep up with the steam version of starbound at all? or is a whole different thing? because i noticed that you guys have added some stuff to starbound, but it hasn't updated on steam yet.

        so, one more questions, are you guys going to add those hairstyles you've done to the game? (sorry)

        Yes! They're actually already in the nightly builds, and they'll be in the update once it comes out.
        And I'm happy to answer questions whenever I'm able to, so don't worry :D

      My impression of the Virorbs is that they'd be the slimes of Starbound. Am I reasonably correct?

        Hm, they are Orbs that are surrounded by Goo, If they would be Slimes they would be made out of Goo. :D

      Hi! How would you like to see them implemented in terms of where they are found? A 'planet of the virorbs'? Or absolutely everywhere? Or a few virorbs scattered around? My only worry with the virorbs, and in fact all of the pre-made monsters is that they won't gel with the randomly-generated ones. I'd like to hear what the creator has to say about this.

      Thank you in advance!
      1. thefluvirus
        thefluvirus
        Dunno, they'd probably be pretty rare, I would assume at least.

        I'm a spriter. I work on random monsters and armours mostly at the moment, most of the monsters shown have some bits and pieces of mine.

    Hi, i'm flu, and i have nothing better to do than sit at a computer for 48 hours a day. Aside from that, I enjoy drawing, spriting, daydreaming and watching cartoons. And playing video games, i guess.

    :D My biggest source of inspiration comes from the games I have played and enjoyed, especially those with pixel art aesthetics such as the Mario and Luigi series and the Pokémon series up to Black and White 2 (don't talk to me about the new 3D games unless you wanna hear me ramble on endlessly).

    :hylotl: I'm a contributor for Starbound, creating various art assets for the game in my own time. I assisted in the design of the Hylotl and also came up with their name, so that's my fault if you find it hard to pronounce. (It's High-Lottle, by the way, and the name's an amalgamation of Hylidae and Axolotl.) Other stuff I've worked on includes:
    • Most of the random monster parts
    • A large chunk of the armours, including all the Hylotl ore armours
    • Hairstyles
    • Furniture
    • Weapons
    • Minibiomes
    • ...and a bunch of unique monsters, most of which aren't in the actual game yet. In fact, the only one which is in the game at the moment is the Swarpion.
    :virorb: I also designed the Virorbs for the Monster Monster contest before I became a contributor, which achieved second place. A bunch of them will be in the game eventually.
