New monster idea? The Mimic

[Retlemecaf (SDg✍)]

If somehow the dev reads this, cool, I'm not sure if or where to post suggestions.

But I was talking with a friend last game and he'd brought up the idea of a mysterious creature that may not "properly approach" until it's killed it's first victim somehow and assumed there appearance. And the creepy part of his suggestion for me was his idea of it further copying it's victim's voice making voice clips from the in game voice chat. Now maybe it would act weird but for the most part it would try and act like a regular crew member best it can, and should you somehow decide to depart the planet with this impostor on board it starts trying to eat once the ships lifts off.

That is one of the most requested things for this game right now lol

We, kinda, already have this in form of the masked employee. In two forms actually, one that randomly spawns and one that gets turned with the mask.

But there is also a mod that gives enemies random sound bites from other players so you think a friend is nearby while he is either not even close or already dead.

masked enemies spawn on rend and titan, hopefully zeekerss adds some kind of voice mimicking implementation (that isn't intrusive or takes up space ofc) and/or types what you might've typed earlier in the game chat :)

For what it's worth, the game chat isn't global, it's local only. Nobody else sees what you type

I think some kind of wandering parasite would've been better for the body snatching gimmick. Only newbies will put on the mask after the honey moon period has ended.

Wow, okay!
I guess there's still plenty to experience. All I can say is great job, this game makes my spine crawl... and please keep it up.
