With SOS 2 rereleased it would be amazing to see this updated with compatibility!

Ah shame it's outdated, oh well.

The only name for a mantis without a teleporter is doors. Until I find a reason to use teleporters instead of nukes, it'll stay that way.

CTH2004 May 20, 2023 @ 10:07am

if/ when you update it, will you make it still HAR, or will it be a xenotype/ genotype, or both?

Thanks!

Can't wait, but I shall!

I'd say this was always my favorite steam mod, no rush of course on updating! Just wanted to share my thoughts really.

My Favorite aspect of the mod was always how it felt so nice to see real diversity in the races, and how they did feel so unique, strong in completely different fields. Alongside the additions of mind control powers, or the mantis's claws of doom. It really sold a strong vibrant selection of races. Thanks a bunch mate, for making and sharing this free content.
