Creepers in starbound?!?

So according to this tweet, tiy might be implementing creepers in to the starbound mob generation

 

Now in Starbound!

 

How old is this? Oh yeah, over a year.

Nothing in that tweet says Creepers will be in the game as a monster. It could (and is likely going to be if I recall) be a small reference.

 

To be honest though I think a lot of us did not know. I know I didn't :/.

 

Tiy has confirmed that creepers are already in the game!

 

It could be the Crash Handler so you get scared

 

Didn't Tiy confirm them as a quest mob in the Ask Us Anything thread? My memory may be failing though... I know you certainly can't use them as a pet.

 

Thank goodness for that. I like creepers as much as the next guy but having actual creepers in the game wouldn't be very ssssssssafe.

 

I doubt that. Proof?

Goodness gracious. I thought people would treat the Ask Us Anything thread as a bible !

 

I think you misunderstood both the question and his answer.

 

Now I'm definitely confused. Did the fellow ask a question? I see you asking for proof of Tiy confirming that creepers are in Starbound... And in the thread he confirms that they're in the game.

 

This is how I think the question and answer should be interpreted

 

I would hope Starbound has attracted new donors and forum members within the last year.

Old news is old. Don't really need a repeat thread in GD.
