    Is this supposed to be a pun on the swamp things in Terraria?

    Nice art there. Now, if only we needed to pull out our ships from under the marsh...:megusta:

    [EDIT] hmm, yeah that big tree does seems to be on the foreground. Do you have to climb it to get past it?
    [EDIT2] Oooor, I'm just tired...

    I cannot honestly say I care either way about any cooking recipes or crops if hunger is considered for being thrown out and all those edibles will be just buff potions anyway. In fact, development in that direction now seems like a waste of time in comparison with, say, refining other features desperately needing improvement, like deploying mechas which for now are more like toggleable magical modes rather than actual vehicles.

    hm, we have a thread for that. I would like it to keep contained there. This is a polite request so that this thread doesn't get derailed and possibly locked.

    If only more sprites allowed to the characters. I wanna get stuck at the bog, and to be swamped out by the swamp monster hidden below. Say, will those trees even drop the "darkwoodmaterial2" (the one used for most Floran structures?)

    Looks good, can't wait. Next up for a biome in Starbound: Taiga?

    How about a VIRUS biome next? Or maybe as a sub-biome that could slowly kill you if you touch a certain block or object?
    THAT would certainly put a challenge into the game,as in __ damage ever 1-5 seconds slowly killing the player unless they have a certain stim

    That would be utterly gorgeous rendered in their art style.

    The swamp plants look interesting so far. I recommend creating, as well as trees with their roots in the ground underwater, trees that float in the water on their own, similar to the swamp tree in the picture. =3

    We had something like that suggested repeatedly to my knowledge. Generally, there are players (and yes, me included) hoping for variety of hazardous, barely/not hospitable worlds - with toxic atmosphere, lack of atmosphere, high radiation, blocking beaming back onto the ship unless at certain elevation - there are some steps taken in that direction but so far they're all 'too hot/too cold/cannot breathe till you get high enough tier armor - then, there's no difference'. Still, there's some hope for the future.

    Oooh, my floran loves to collect pretty trees and plants. Any homeworld she has will be covered in tree houses and all sorts of flora from different worlds. This is a most excellent addition to her future collection. Love the artwork!

    Hello!

    Can we get some more information about the lower roots of this tree? Were they just for this preview or are we actually going to see them ingame?
    If so, do all trees get roots now?

    And are you planning to improve the system we have of our seeds, so we can get a preview and more information on the seed/grown planet/tree?

    Thanks and regards
