    That's awesome! More contrast between shades, the background foot being level on the ground and it could pretty much go in the game directly. :D

    It would be better to use fictitious metals instead of real ones. Iodine and Caesium are liquid at room temperature, Astatine has a half-life of 8.1 hours, and Sulphur is not even a metal and would crumble to bits. It would be near impossible to even make weapons out of these, let alone good ones that don't fall appart or melt within minutes of using them.

    Maybe consider alloys instead, since IRL Iron (steel) is pretty much the most practical base element for tools and construction. Mangalloy, for example, is much more resistant to abrasion than steel, and is both harder and less brittle than steel, which is why heavy construction equipment that is used to drill out solid bedrock is made of mangalloy. Manganese on its lonesome, however, is fairly useless for making weapons.

    Copper is sometimes used in games because copper and tin were used in ancient times to make bronze alloy, which was the most effective material prior to purified iron (a.k.a. steel). Personally, I think copper could be good for wiring, but I'd prefer to use superconducting alluminum alloy, so copper might be pretty useless once you get that. Iron will always be helpful because when people think "metal", they typically think of Iron first. Gold might be next because it is so valuable, and it is also used for computer chips because it is highly maleable. IMHO, I think Iron and Gold should be the only real metals in the game, and all the others should be fictional. Diamond, plastic, and other carbon products could be used as well, but they are not actually metals.

    Anyway, I'd prefer fictional materials over inaccurate representations of real materials.
