About This Game

• Everything is destructible; Wooden wall in your way? Toss a cannon ball to break it down. The shattered remnants of the wall will remain in the world as a reminder of your destructive past.
  
• Materials like wood and rock can be devoured using your slug radula, then repurposed for building things
  
• Learn new shapes, modifiers, and operators for building - when you devour a form you learn its secrets
  
• Create projectiles from any shape to go offensive against another player, or to distract an aggressive tree slug.
  
• Befriend slugs dwelling in the trees, they're able to reproduce nearby objects for you to devour - the more time you spend with a slug the friendlier it may be
  
• Like a hermit crab, you must find a shell to latch onto. If you become detached from your shell you have a short time to find another- failing to do so will cause you to drift on the winds toward the nearest Nest.
  
• You can leap out of your current shell at any time to escape danger, or to jump into a new shell.
  
• If you find yourself drifting on the wind after failing to acquire a shell, your friends can rescue you by touching you or tossing a new shell your way.

• Use the shapes you have learned to sculpt your world--build a fort, or sculpt your own body.
  
• After sculpting something, you can copy it, making it into a single composite which can be manipulated and pasted

  • Procedural shapes such as spheres, boxes, capsules and many more

  • Fractals such as mandelbulb, menger sponge, and some custom new ones
• Operators allow you to control how the shape is merged with its surroundings, providing control over the blend radius, height, curve shape etc.
  
• Modifiers warp the shape in some way, allowing for things such as mirroring, spinning, displacement, and applying many different kinds of noises & patterns to the surface.
