    From what I've seen, Apex has a more research-y feel about them (though they've got enough tassels to be military, I guess). A lot of the human buildings (and early vehicles) looked more military to me.

    Wondering how a Zombie-themed race would work... Ghouls in Fallout?

    Hmmm.. The Apex do have an SS feel to it, but is quite distinct in itself. My initial idea had more of an Allied theme though

    I really like the idea of a feudal Japanese themed race. There's just so much to play of off. Laser katanas, explosive/poison/laser shurikens, sweet shogun armor...
    However, major +1 for Victorian steampunk. It would please so many.

    I am very interested in a Pirate themed one, I might think about trying to create one based around the piratey/nautical theme. Other then that a good deal of the themes are already covered. x.x

    Hmm. Get back to me on that.

    Hehe. I was thinking more of a rock/mineral race, easy to work with, you can have some lore around them leaving land to be on water due to something with their being made of rock/mineral. Rather easy to work with.

    As I said. =P Get back to me on it, I got art commissions to do first but I'll see if I can doodle up some concept art eventually.

    Space Bees. Starbound must at least have one race of of bee people.

    Because bees make everything better.

    Energy, Bees, Fish, Humans, Apes (mammals), Robots, and Plants.

    Need Bugs/Arachnids (including bees as just mentioned)

    Also, what about Fungi? Too close to Plants?

    In that train of thought, Wolf people would be sweet :)

    EDIT: Fungi culture could be frat, cause they're fun guys! But really, what about (for any new race) a 1700's age of exploration theme, including pirates, buccaneers, musketeers, etc. Marqi Kiba , and the three fangs (musketeers) haha
