Two things occurred to me. is that globe a map of their home world, or of the planet view from space? And how big of a town do you need in order to get a town biome (aka background)?
How about a glass/metal/neon chamber with buttons in it, that you open when you want to enter; it fills with water, (Or whatever kind of liquid the chamber's in, gotta make use of them liquid physics, yo) then, the drains under (or the vacuum above/to the sides) drains the water, and whatever side is attached to the wall or ceiling (or floor) opens and let's you in?
Hmmm......add a few drunken, passed-out space pirates, a metric ton of empty bottles, a battleaxe wedged into the wall.....You'll have a dead-ringer for the cantina in my secret base after the last post-raid celebration. Fewer neons though. Pirates + guns / blinking lights ^ (alcohol) = broken technology. (Keep that in mind ye future captains)
That's how I roll. I dream of it one day being fully functional. You play starbound, use that Starbound arcade machine to open up another window of Starbound within Starbound. Then you can open up another Starbound within that Starbound. Then another, and another, and another... and so on. Many people don't notice the Starbound logo on that thing from what I gather when I tweeted it a few days ago.
Oh man, I see a UFO catcher (Claw game) I want plushies, all of them. I want plushies of the Devs, Staff, contest winners, people from the forum, various monster, EVERYTHING.
Am I the only one who, after seeing this, didn't have their mind immediately go "Rapture" and instead simply thought "Underwater Neo-Tokyo"?
Pssh here is the definition of Apex... 1)the highest point in a plane or solid figure, relative to a base line or plane. 2)the growing point of a shoot. 3)the highest level of a hierarchy, organization, or other power structure regarded as a triangle or pyramid.
I think airlocks with double doors and draining delays and so forth could be really cool, but also really restricting. In my opinion we'd be better off having something that is just basically a door that doesn't let water through be the default, and then have larger airlocks be a special thing that shows up sometimes, rather than something that impacts every single entrance/exit. Lore justification could be that the sci-fi water-barring technology is only effective for relatively small openings, and so the cargo/docking bay doors have to use the old fashioned biz. Anyway, that's what I think, now about this MOLE MAN poster
im gonna hunt down that cameo and any other dev cameos, also the pokemon poster >.> but for completely different reasons.
